Zero-Turn Mower Gets A “Seat Raising”
 ✖  |
“I’m 6 ft. 2 in. tall and wasn’t happy with the seat on my Husqvarna zero-turn mower. It sits too low for a guy with long legs like me. So I made a metal bracket that raised the seat up about 12 in. and shifted it back over the engine,” says Howard Aul, Saint Augustine, Fla.
The seat came mounted on a sliding bracket, but it would bump up against the engine. “I had to raise the seat high enough to clear the engine before I could move the seat all the way back,” he says.
He unbolted the seat’s original mounting bracket from the deck and welded a new angle iron bracket onto the bottom. The bracket slants toward the back so that the seat is now located about halfway over the engine.
