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 . Max enjoyed relaxing under a shade tree while his invention did all the work . Max had designed his first self - propelled rotary lawn mower to do his dirty work for him . Neighbors noticed his new invention and began asking him to make more . Today , over 60 years later , Swisher Mower and Machine Company , Inc . is still producing innovative lawn and garden and ATV / UTV equipment designed to give us all more " relaxing in the shade " time . Swisher products have been featured nationally on television programs such as Regis and Kathie Lee and seen in publications like ATV Ma _ azine , Country Journal , Popular Mechanics Magazine and others . In January 2000 Popular Mechanics Magazine named Max's zero turning radius riding mower one of the 20 th century's top household inventions . Swisher offers value and function in its products to meet your grounds maintenance needs . CELEBRATIONVGER60 YEARSOFINNOVATION 1945 - 2008 38
