Swisher ZT2350A manual Swisher History, CELEBRATING OVER 60 YEARS OF INNOVATION

SWISHER HISTORY

Back before electricity came to rural Missouri Max Swisher was producing lawn mowers from his mother’s chicken house. Max never liked to mow grass. He installed a gearbox on his family’s lawn mower creating a self-propelled unit. By tying one end of a rope to the mower and the other end to a tree in the center of the yard the mower circled the tree, shortening the rope and guiding the mower in concentric circles. Max enjoyed relaxing under a shade tree while his invention did all the work.

Max had designed his first self-propelled rotary lawn mower to do his dirty work for him. Neighbors noticed his new invention and began asking him to make more. Today, 60 years later, Swisher Mower and Machine Company, Inc. is still producing innovative lawn and garden and ATV/UTV equipment designed to give us all more “relaxing in the shade” time.

Swisher products have been featured nationally on television programs such as Regis and Kathie Lee and seen in publications like ATV Magazine, Country Journal, Popular Mechanics Magazine and others. In January 2000 Popular Mechanics Magazine named Max’s zero turning radius riding mower one of the 20th century’s top household inventions.

Swisher offers value and function in its products to meet your grounds maintenance needs.
