Abstract
Two common methods are currently used to clean the underside of a mower deck. Scraping the underside of the deck and spraying the underside of the deck with a hose. Both methods require the mower to be tilted on its side, which can lead to engine fluid leakage and other safety concerns. Team Mow Mat would like to construct a push mower mat to provide a safe and efficient way to clean the underside of a mower deck on a push mower. The mow mat will not only provide a safe and convenient of cleaning the underside of a push mower, it will be lightweight and fold for easy storage. Aluminum will be the material used to make it lightweight and a hinge system for easy storage.
