This is why I had to get a lawn tractor that starts with a key. Also, the vibrations from riding it somehow sooth my fibromyalgia. Good luck with a solution!--Sage

Ok folks, I need help solving a problem.
I have trouble cranking things. No matter how easy something is to crank, my arm just isn't up for it. On some little engines, like the weedeater, which requires a short stroke pull, I am okay for a few pulls, and since it usually starts on the second or third pull, that's good....however, the lawnmower is another beast entirely. The Snapper mower is a snapper alright...the cord snaps back violently almost jerking my shoulder out.
How can I bypass this problem. Has anyone ever rigged a contraption that will pull the start?
I really need to mow today and all the neighbors are gone. I have 5 hours of mowing to do and it looks like it will break out into rain any second. I'm frustrated.
