Mower Hoist Makes Service Easy FARM SHOP Repairs 28-6-38 "It provides me with a safe and easy way to clean the deck and sharpen the blades on my riding mower," says Arnold Hussong, Okabena, Minn., who recently sent FARM SHOW photos of an electric-operated hoist his son made for him. It allows him to raise his Snapper riding mower.
The hoist was built from 3-in. sq. tubing and measures 12 ft. high and wide, with the legs spread 4 ft. apart. A winch on top is powered by a 1/2 hp electric motor. Hussong attached a short length of chain to the front part of the mower, which he hooks up to the winch cable
"I'm getting on in age and don't have the strength I used to have, so this really helps," says Hussong.
