Alan Dinan Posted May 8 Posted May 8 They are rough riding, a pain while turning and trying to hit the clutch and brake if you have to stop because the clutch and brake pedals turn with the front wheel. They are very crude but they got the job done. Dad had two of them over the years. Had the 4 cylinder Wisconsin engines in them. He had one of them rebuilt in the mid-late 80’s. Quote
yellowrosefarm Posted May 8 Posted May 8 I remember seeing a few of the Hahn lawnmowers around here back in the 80's. I never knew they made anything else. Quote

yellowrosefarm Posted May 8 Posted May 8 The more I think about it, I had one of the push mowers in a pile of used mowers somebody gave me years ago. Went for scrap when my Mom passed in 2008 and we had to clean up over at her place. I had saved it in the barn over there because it was so unique. Quote
Sledgehammer Posted May 9 Posted May 9 Neighbor has one of the sprayers in his shed. Drive by it every day. Heard a story about a fellow that had one years ago and the chain drive broke going down a big hill. He jumped clear of it and was not seriously injured. Quote

Dad had the little dolly that the front wheel chained into to pull it with the pickup or grain truck with a water tank in the bed. Quote
