Abstract

A lawn mower lift is provided for lifting one end of a lawn mower to enable a person to gain access to the underside of the lawn mower to perform maintenance or repair tasks on the lawn mower. The lawn mower lift includes first and second upstanding post members having a support rail extending between the upper ends of the post members. A horizontally disposed wheel is vertically slidably mounted on each of the post members for supporting a pair of wheels of the lawn mower thereon. A winch is mounted on the support rail and has a pair of winch cables secured to the wheel supports. The winch, when operated in a first direction, raises one end of the lawn mower. The winch, when operated in a second direction, lowers the lawn mower.
