Abstract: An implement interlock connection system connects an implement to a utility vehicle. The utility vehicle includes an implement interface having a first slot forming in the implement interface at a first position and a second slot formed in the implement interface at a second position spaced from the first position. The implement includes an implement arm having a securing interface with an implement slot defined therein. The implement interlock connection system includes a first lever pivotably coupled to the implement interface and a second lever pivotably coupled to the first lever. The first lever being configured to selectively engage the first slot and the second lever being configured to selectively engage the second slot. The implement is secured to the implement interface of the utility vehicle when the first lever engages the first slot and the second lever engages the second slot.

Abstract: A quick coupler primary lock arrangement includes a fore-and-aft guided wedge arrangement carried by a cross shaft and is biased forwardly to a lock position by a first spring arrangement, and includes a secondary lock arrangement includes a locking pawl arrangement pivotally mounted to the cross shaft and biased, by a second spring arrangement, to a secondary lock position wherein the pawl arrangement includes a surface disposed in a confronting locking disposition relative to an abutment surface of a fixed plate of the coupler to thereby prevent rearward movement of the wedge arrangement from the lock position. A normally depressurized hydraulic cylinder is coupled to the pawl arrangement and when selectively pressurized overcomes spring biasing forces and pivots the pawl arrangement from the secondary locking position and then shifts the wedge arrangement rearward to a coupler release position. An electro-hydraulic control arrangement prevents unintentional operation of the hydraulic cylinder.

Abstract: Commercial walk behind mower operator controls include a rigid handlebar with a pair of hand grips, each hand grip having a non-horizontal axis. A pair of operator control levers are mounted adjacent the handlebar and hand grips. Both operator control levers are pivotable about a single pivot point having a pivot axis that is non-parallel to the axis of each hand grip. Each operator control lever is pivotable toward the hand grip to reduce the rotational speed of a drive wheel.
