I teach my customers to tip their mowers handlebars to the ground .
Now the arrangements might be different down here but just about every mower sold here will stand vertical if the handle bars are tripped forward and in many cases the catcher flap will go back to stabilize it
That way the customer does not have to remember which way they should tip or confuse left standing behind with left standing in front .
I have had mowers sitting like that for months while I wait for B & S to actually get common service parts without any problems
