“To solve the problem, I bolted a support post to the side of the operator platform. I welded a “pocket” to the side made from 2-in. material. A removable 30-in. long, 1-in. square bar fits inside the tube. I then welded a length of 2-in. angle iron between the front wheel and deck, and bolted a fold-up military step onto it.
“Now to get onto the mower I just grab the 30-in. tube and the mower’s steering handle at the same time, and step safely onto the operator platform.”
