I’ve actually driven a riding mower before when I was a kid. My grandpa showed me how to work the clutch and the gears, and he was admittedly riding with me, but I have some idea. But that was back in the 1970s. Who knows how complicated the new ones are nowadays.
So you can drive an Aufsitzrasenmäher, can you? More power to you!
Back in the 70s, my grandpa taught me how to use a scythe - and also how to ausdengeln (hone and hammer flat defects from) it afterwards.
