A walk power mower having a cutting deck supported upon the ground by a front and rear wheel(s). The mower includes a traction drive system incorporating a bidirectional transmission adapted to propel the mower alternatively in both forward and reverse directions. In some embodiments, the mower may include a single bidirectional transmission (e.g., powering only rear wheel(s) or only front wheel(s) of the mower), while in other embodiments, two bidirectional transmissions may be provided to power both the front and the rear wheel(s). In other embodiments, the mower may include a bidirectional transmission powering the rear wheel(s), while the front wheel(s) may be attached to the deck via a caster assembly.

A high efficiency turf maintenance apparatus having low power consumption and good cutting performance including a bagging apparatus for turf clippings is presented herein. A blade configuration is disclosed to provide lift and to propel turf clippings from a mow deck to the bagging apparatus. Further, the blade configuration can be implemented with minimal increase in power consumption, allowing the bagging apparatus to be utilized with an electric motor power source with little or no impact on battery life.

A control box and a garden tool fitted with the control box. The control box includes a self-propelled trigger unit including a self-propelled control switch S, a lever and a control handle matching with the self-propelled control switch S; and a casing being provided with a receiving cavity. The self-propelled triggering unit is at least partially disposed in the receiving cavity. The lever abuts and triggers the self-propelled control switch S when the control handle is pulled to abut the lever and the control handle swings up and down in a plane where a side wall of the casing is located. The control box has reasonable switch distribution and is easy to operate.

A control assembly for controlling the mode of all-wheel-drive walk-behind mower is provided. The control assembly includes a casing and a pair of levers extending from opposing lateral sides of the casing, wherein both of the levers are rotatable between a first operative position and a second operative position relative to the casing. Rotating both of the levers to the second operative position switches the control assembly to an all-wheel-drive mode in which a front transmission and a rear transmission are both in an engaged state resulting in the front and rear wheels of the lawn mower to be rotated by the transmissions. When both levers are in the second operative position, the levers are releasably attached to each other and can be maintained in the second operative position by the user continually grasping only one of the levers.
