Lawn tractor in garage flamed: fire brigade saves from fire!

In an unusual incident on Saturday afternoon, the fire brigade was alerted to a garage fire in Schmölln, in the Schloßig district. The fire was triggered by a lawn tractor that had previously been used by a property owner to maintain its green areas. After the work ended, the owner stopped the lawnmower in his garage, obviously without acting.

The reason for the fire is still unclear, but the flames spread quickly. Fortunately, the owner managed to delete a large part of the fire independently before the fire brigade arrived. Nevertheless, the garage was strongly sooty, which indicates the intensity of the fire. The incident raises questions about the security precautions that must be observed when using such machines in closed rooms.

The alarmed emergency services only had to carry out a few rehearsal work. The fire brigade was able to control the fire relatively quickly and prevent further spread. Despite the tight time frame and the possible dangers associated with garage fires, the property damage remained in a manageable framework.

Such incidents illustrate the importance of the correct handling of devices associated with heat development. The parking of machines in closed rooms without adequate safety measures can have quick and dangerous consequences. Notes and suggestions for the safe use of garden tools are not only useful, but potentially life -saving.
