In fact, I purchased an electric mower (obviously I have a small yard) because I didn't want to have to deal with the issues of the gasoline powered machine. <br /><br />Hope the neighbor is able to help you with the bolts.

However I don't know about taking out the battery for the winter. Guess I best check on that.
