Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): lawn mower, motorcycle lift, work bench


Question
Michael,

I am disabled and I was wondering if there were some type of jack or lift that I could use to hike my lawn mower up onto my work bench or just in the "air" so I can work on it without laying on the ground. Work bench set up suggestions for working on lawn mowers would be appreciated. I know I can do this with the right apparatus. Maybe a motorcycle jack?....thanks, Ed  

Answer
Hi Ed,

There are wheeled flat top lifts available.  A flat top motorcycle lift would work nicely.  A ceiling hoist also would work to lift equipment onto a bench.

I can't think of anything particular to offer about   workbench setup.  You will just need the right tools as you go.

Good Luck,
Michael
