I remember my old neighbor, Tony, trying to clear under his mower while
it was running. He got cut pretty badly.


Anecdotal story of a couple fellows, had a bit
too much beer. One noticed the hedge needed to
be trimmed down. But, no hedge trimmers to be
found. Someone suggested just have four guys
pick up the walk behind mower. Carry it along
over the hedge, to trim the hedge down.

Please do not try this under any circumstances.

That's just stupid.

Besides you gotta give 4 guys beer.

I welded handles onto the deck of mine. Works fine with a little care.

We did have an employee we caught starting the mower by pulling on the blades. He'd broken the pull cord and was scared he'd get fired if anybody knew. It didn't occur to him he'd be more likely to get fired for the safety violation.
