  • Patent number: 4934130
    Abstract: This invention relates to a riding mower comprising a chassis supporting a driving unit intended to propel the wheels of the mower as well as a cutting attachment, the cutting attachment being movably fastened to the chassis and by means of an operating device can be brought from a lower cutting position to an upper non-cutting position. The cutting attachment has an upper and a lower displacement area, the engagement and disengagement of the cutting attachment being effected in the upper area, whereas the cutting attachment in the lower area can be moved upwards or downwards with its parallelism with the ground preserved and can be locked against downwards movement for different cutting heights. The mower is driven while the cutting attachment is in the lower displacement area.

The flat contact pins are fixed in the base plate of the plug, while the round contact pins are located in that part of the plug consisting essentially of yoke and case. When the case is drawn upwardly over the yoke, the two components can be tilted as a unit about journals in the base plate so as to expose the flat contact pins for use.
