Mower Fan Keeps Driver Cool, Bugs Away

Mower Fan Keeps Driver Cool, Bugs Away FARM HOME Lawn Mowers (31h,38) 15-5-8 Mounting a small 7-in. dia. fan in front of the steering wheel on his riding lawn mower lets Charlie Millar, Wever, Iowa, keep cool on hot summer days and also blows bugs away. Millar bolted the base of the 2-speed fan to a flat piece of steel that's welded to the top of a 2-ft. length of angle iron. The angle iron bolts onto the footrest in front of the operator platform. The fan is wired to the mower's battery. It can be swiveled out of the way to raise the mower's hood.
