Ride On Lawnmower.

I am a Right Above Knee Amputee and I`m looking for some advice on Ride On mowers that I could operate with no right leg. Maybe Left leg Trottle or Hand Trottle. Thank You in Advance.

What about a geared machine with brake on the left hand side.

I am nearly sure AYP machines like Husqvarna, Jonsered and Rally have the brake on the left. This means it would just be a matter of selecting the gear and taking your foot off the brake to move forward.

What about a zero turn? Pretty sure most of them have no foot controls.
