Abstract

In a mid-mower type riding lawn mower provided with a mower 12 arranged between front and rear wheels 2 and 3, a frame member 32 arranged across a right and left width under a floor 7 along the transverse right and left directions is provided in a front part of the floor 7 of a vehicle body 1. An accommodation bracket member 33 for accommodating an extensible type jack device 31 in longitudinal directions is provided in the frame member 32. An opening and closing cover 24 for covering the accommodated jack device 31 is provided. When the front part of the vehicle body 1 is to be lifted up using the jack device 31, the jack device 31 is linked to a supporting bracket member 34 of the vehicle body 1 such that an upper part of the jack device 31 should be in a forward inclined position, so that an end of the jack device 31 is supported in a freely rotatable manner via a ground plate 31d. Then, when the front part of the vehicle body 1 is lifted gradually, the jack device 31 swings from the forward included position via a vertical position into a rearward inclined position, so that the jack device 31 is held in the rearward inclined position. This avoids acting of a large load, and provides handling and maintenance easiness.
