Motor Driven Lawn Mowers 



The "4 -ACRE" Mowers 



Low Operating Cost — Big Cutting Capacity 



The "4-ACRJE" Power Lawn Mowers, comprising two models as listed below, are the lightest in f 

 weight and most compact of any mowers on the market. They are equipped with powerful especially 

 designed motors, efficient cooling systems, two heavy fly wheels, high tension 

 magnetoes. especially designed carburetors and automatic lubrication. The 

 power is transmitted from the engine to the wheels and cutting reels by means 

 of cone clutches — operated independently of each other. A differential enclosed 

 in one wheel makes steering very easy and fatigue from twisting and wrestling 

 around corners is unknown to operators of 4-ACRE machines. The motor is CtJKf 

 weU muffled and with the gears running in oil the machine is practically noiseless.

The Ideal Power Lawn Mower 



The principle of the Ideal Power Mower is the same as that of the ordi- 

 nary 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 an irregu- 

 larity of the ground's surface. 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 witli no 

 possible chance of breakage. This means added life for the entire outfit.

The Moto-Mower 



A Compact, Simple, and Economical, Power Lawn Mower 



If a lawn is too large to be mown profitably with a hand mower — or is dotted with trees — also if 

 it contains many sharp angles or tight corners, then it simply needs a MOTO-MOWER to do the 

 work. 



This mower is said by the manufacturers to be the most compact and most easily operated Power 

 Lawn Mower made. Hundreds of them are satisfactorily operating now on the estates of private 

 individuals, on the grounds of public institutions, parks, and the like. A list of users will be gladly- 

 furnished to any one who desires this information. 



The Moto-Mower is light in weight and sturdy in construction. The engine is strong, durable, 

 and of simple design. It is the 4-cycle valve in head type and develops 2 ' j horse-power. The crank 

 and cam shafts are made of chrome nickel steel, accurately machined, and bearing parts are finely- 

 ground. The carburetor and magneto are specially designed to develop maximum power. 



The mower frames are constructed of malleable iron, the frame rods are rolled steel. The cutting 

 cylinder is built of extra heavy and wide blades, oil hardened and tem- 

 pered, and runs on Timpken Roller Bearings. The pressed steel trac- 

 tion wheels have individual clutches that are operated from the handle 

 bars. These clutches are the dry plate type, such as are now used on the 

 majority of automobiles. A safety clutch guards the machine from in- 

 jury, should a stone or other obstruction become caught in the cutting 

 reel. The lubrication of the Moto-Mower requires little attention; a 

 splash circulating system takes care of all of the vital motor parts con- 

 tained in the crank' case and the clutches and wheel bearings are lubri- 

 cated by oil cups. 



The performance of the Moto-Mower is all that can be desired. It 

 cuts a swath 21 or 27 inches wide (see below) and can be raised or lowered 

 from )| to3)4 inches. It will cut 4 to a acres of lawn a day and climb 

 a 35 per cent grade on a gasoline consumption of only about one gallon 

 per day. It therefore combines efficiency of operation with economy of 

 cost and labor. 



We offer the following two 

 sizes: 21-inch cut complete, 

 $185.00; 27-inch cut complete, 

 $285.00.
