THE IDEAL POWER 
LAWN MOWER 
Make Velvety Lawns, the clean 
sure and easy way 
Mechanism So Simple Anyone Can Operate It— ‘ 
Simplicity is its dominating feature. The machine ; : ea ee, 
has few parts, and the entire absence of intricate ; > ; Sse 3 soles asad 
mechanism makes it as near fool-proof as is possible j - Soe 
ina machine of thiskind. No experienced operator 
is required—anyone who can keep a gasoline motor 
supplied with gasoline and oil can operate an Ideal 
Power Mower. Owing to its simplicity and few 
parts, it seldom gets out of order. 
Cutter is Pushed Instead of Driven Direct— 
Experience has shown that the type of mower 
where the cutting reel is driven direct from the 
engine by means of sprockets and chain, and the 
mower built rigidly into the frame of the tractor 
is not practical for the reason that obstacles on the 
lawn are picked up by the reel, which being posi- 
tively driven, causes constant breakage. 
The principle of the Ideal Power Mower is the 
same as that of the ordinary hand mower. The 
cutting reel is driven by the traction of the mower 
wheel. The mower is loosely suspended from the 
frame of the tractor, and becomes the front axle 
of the machine. It is pivoted so that it always 
has a free tilting motion, and the wheels adapt 
themselves to any irregularity of the ground’s sur- 
face. The mower, therefore, glides over the lawn 
and any obstruction which may be encountered 
merely prevents the blades from rotating, and 
the wheels slip over the ground with no_possible 
chance for breakage. This means added life to 
the entire outfit. Z 
The driving roller is made up of three separate 
castings. “The center roller is keyed to the shaft. 
The ene oe as oe os os aes tn. SOE : 
are driven by the center roller whic ows them 
to have a complete turn before engaging with the The Ideal Power Lawn Mower 
‘center driveroller. This feature facilitates turning, asin turning the outside roller is always free to run ahead of the driver. 
The Sturdy, Dependable, Fool-Proof Ideal Motor—The power unit for the Ideal Power Lawn Mower has been designed especially for the use to which it is 
put. Itis aslow speed, single cylinder motor with hit-and-miss governor, and jump spark ignition operating on dry cells instead of a magneto—in short, the logical 
- motor for this class of work—a motor that eliminates the troubles that would surely result in operating a more complicated motor. The excessive vibration of high 
speed engines makes them unsuited to this duty, and the motor employing a magneto is undesirable as it requires the attention of a skilled operator. 
_. The cutting unit is of the hand mower principle, only larger and of heavier construction. -There are five blades of hardened steel, tempered to hold a keen 
cutting edge. The bearings are made of ample size for long life, and are provided with adjustment for wear. It requires but a few minutes to remove the mower 
from the tractor, no special tools being necessary. At a nominal extra cost, we furnish an extra cutting unit. The purchase of this extra unit is advised, for by 
having the extra unit you are never obliged to lay the outfit up for sharpening or adjustments, Further, changing frequently so as always to have a sharp mower 
means longer life to your power unit, as a free cutting mower does not throw any unusual strain on the motor. 
Complete Control in One Lever—Here again, simplicity marks the Ideal Power Lawn Mower. In place of numerous clutches and Ievers, the Ideal Power 
Lawn Mower operates with a single lever at the operator's left hand. This lever actuates a belt tightener which affords perfect control of the machine at all times. 
This method is not only simple, but also highly desirablebe cause of the safety feature afforded in case the cutter strikes or picks up an obstruction.
