Where To Buy A Horse-Drawn Lawn Mower FARM HOME Lawn Mowers 31h 38 A Pennsylvania company says you can have more fun mowing grass with the company’s horse-drawn mower which has a linkage system that prevents skips in corners and around trees The mower cart and frame is built by Pioneer Equipment of Utica Ohio and Georgetown Sales sells the Clipper USA reels and distributes the kits to their dealer network in the U S and Canada David Beiler of Georgetown says the mower has only two wheels placed outside the reels “It does an excellent job mowing Traditional gang mowers have 3 wheels usually located in front of the reels which flatten the uncut grass and leave behind a track “Pioneer Equipment builds these 300-lb steel carts for easy and functional use ” Beiler says “A flexible shaft with an over-center lever that keeps the weight of the unit on the ground makes it easy to hitch or unhitch the horse When the lever is closed down the shaft becomes rigid and the mower is ready to use ” Another key feature is that the reels are mounted on a 4-way universal joint so they move independently over the high and low points of a yard Beiler says “If you have slopes or divits the U-joint lets the reels float and follow the contour of your yard rather than drag over it like a traditional gang mower There’s even a foot pedal with unique steering linkage to the rear reel for cutting tight around trees and landscaping ” Each of the reels are 21 in wide and the full width of the cutting path can be adjusted from 48 to 56 in Beiler says if the ground is sloping more reel overlap is needed Cutting height is adjustable from 1 to 2 3/4 in Buyers can choose between steel hard rubber or pneumatic wheels A spring-loaded seat lets the operator ride in comfort while controlling the horse pulling the mower Beiler says Georgetown has dealers throughout the U S and Canada and if a customer doesn’t have one nearby they will ship direct The cart and mower assembly costs $3 280 and requires about an hour of assembly time to attach the reels and shafts on the cart before use Contact: FARM SHOW Followup Georgetown Sales LLC 375 Old Dam Road Christiana Penn 17509 ph 610 593-5193
