Abstract: A heater includes a housing extending longitudinally between a rear intake end and a front discharge end, a support attached to a lower portion of the housing, and a cylindrical combustion chamber secured within the housing. A control unit is disposed within the support adjacent to the combustion chamber. A heater control panel is disposed on the support and electrically connected to the control unit, the heater control panel including an ignition switch for selective operation of the control unit to power an igniter. An electrical conductor is electrically connected to the control unit, wherein the support is configured to retain a battery for connection with the electrical conductor, to power the control unit. A plug is connected to the support and electrically connected to the control unit by a rectifier to convert AC power from an external power source to DC power to supply to the control unit.

Abstract: A lawn mowing machine having a mower deck with pivoting side wing sections. The pivoting side wing sections can be pivoted upward relative to the main deck housing. When the side wing sections are raised, the mowing machine is presented with a more narrow profile to pass through narrow width openings and to occupy less space during storage, transport and the like. The cutting blade spindles remain as fixed components of the main deck housing and do not pivot upward in conjunction with the side wing sections. When the side wing sections are raised, the cutting blades are adapted to pivot inwardly and underneath the main deck housing so that they do not protrude beyond the sides of the main deck housing. In this way, the mowing machine is adapted to pass through narrow width openings without the operator having to leave the operator station.
