If you’re planning on towing a lawn mower behind your vehicle, the first thing you’ll need to do is prepare the lawn mower for towing. This involves attaching a ball hitch to the back of the lawn mower.

Before you begin, make sure that the area around the lawn mower is clear and free of any debris. Then, take a look at the instructions manual for your particular model of lawn mower to find out where the ball hitch attachment point is located.
