The New Henderson Horse Lawn Mower 



The New Henderson Horse Lawn Mower 



This is the best horse-power mower manufactured, simple in construction, very durable; nothing but the very best 

 steel and iron are put in it. It is quickly adjusted to cut high or low, and the arrangement for throwing in and out 

 of gear and for raising the knives when passing over stones, rough places or roads, is operated from the seat. The 

 side draft (applicable to either side) keeps the horse on the cut grass and prevents trampling down that which is to be 

 mown. The revolving knives are "high speeded," making a continuous cut and leaving the surface of the lawn as 

 smooth as velvet. These mowers are fitted with a two-section roller and weigh, exclusive of shafts, with driver from 

 600 to 700 pounds, thereby rolling the lawn with a very respectable weight at the same time it is cutting; or the 

 cutter may be thrown out of gear by the movement of a lever and the machine be used for rolling alone.

Townsend's "Triplex" Horse Lawn Mower 



For large lawns, parks, golf courses, etc., it is a boon, cutting a swath over 7 

 feet (86 inches) wide; doing the work of two motor mowers at an eighth of the 

 expense. The series of three mowers adapt themselves to uneven surface, 

 mowing over ridges and through hollows as well as level ground. Simple 

 durable and light running. Easily drawn by one horse — all day long — and 

 operated by any man capable of driving. 



With the Triplex Mower one man and one horse will cut more grass in a day than 

 three men and three horses with three ordinary lawn mowers, and will cut as much 

 grass as any tv/o motor mowers, cut it better — without crushing the life out of soft 

 turf — and at a small fraction of the cost. 



The Triplex consists of three lawn mowers yoked together two abreast, and one follow- 

 ing in the center, lapping each front mower, thus cutting a clear swath eighty-six inches 

 wide. As the three mowers work independently of each other, and are so connected 

 from their centers to the main frame that they can swivel, rise and fall, they therefore 

 adapt themselves to the contour of the ground — floating over ridges and down hollows 

 — mowing the grass as perfectly as on the level, and better than is possible with a long 

 straight-edged bottom knife mower of any kind. 



On rolling ground the Triplex Mower shows its qualities to perfection, holding to a 

 side hill where a motor mower will slide sidewise. It is of extremely light draught, 

 due partly to ball bearings and partly to the excellence of design, material and work- 

 manship. 



Three levers at the driver's right enable him to lift any one or all of the cutting 

 apparatus frorn the ground to avoid obstructions, or in going to and from the field. 

 A small knob in the center of each wheel operates the clutch throwing the machines 

 in and out of gear. 



The mower is provided with a spring seat, ample foot rest, shafts, iron tool bo.x with 

 tools and oil can. Net weight, 600 lbs. 



The mowers are packed singly in crates, the frame work is shipped assembled. It 

 is only the work of ten minutes to assemble the machines and attach the shafts.
