  • Page 19 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.
  • Page 20 The serial number for the engine will be found on the top of the blower fan housing. All Log Splitter parts listed herein may be ordered directly from Swisher, your nearest Swisher dealer, or from our MODEL NO. website.
