Abstract
A mowing machine having a lock mechanism for locking the engagement of a clutch mechanism is disclosed. By a two-motion control operation of operating a clutch lever and then operating a lock lever of a lock mechanism, a locking state of the lock mechanism is released. This releasing of the locking mechanism immediately causes the clutch mechanism to engage, so that there is almost no half-clutch state.
