Abstract

A lawn mower cover is provided which is simple in design and inexpensive but which effectively protects the lawn mower from the elements. The cover is tub-like, lower edges of the cover resting on the lawn mower deck and an upper portion of the cover being provided with a fastening cord fixture portion for attaching an elastic cord, opposite ends of the cord being fastened to the underside of the lawn mower deck. A slot is provided on the cover to accommodate the motor crank rope and controls. The lawn mower cover is preferably formed from a plastic material, such as polyethylene, and is therefore lightweight and inexpensive.
