Types of mowers

Two main types of mowers: the role and rotation. There are many versions of these two species such as electricity, gas, push, and horseback riding.

Reel-type mowers make a clean break as roundabouts, but struggle to cut weeds and grass. Cut with scissors, knife blades as motion against a bed. Reel Mower in the back (more often) come forward and launch models. Because they are hand mower, are cheaper, quieter and betterfor small lawns.

Rotary mowers are the type most popular type because it is easy to maintain and good maneuverability. Roundabouts work faster, cut in many different heights, and most models have mulching capabilities. The disadvantages of a rotary mower is not the most efficiently at lower altitudes (less than 1 "), not cut as cleanly as cylinder mower, and they will scalp the grass unevenly.

Armed with basic knowledge of mowers and what are your needs, you must dosimply to choose the right mower for you. I personally its two types. I like the best cut possible during peak growing season when weeds and debris are scarce. Otherwise, my lawn mower and handles tough weeds, leaves and other debris when I need it most.

Keep mower blades sharp

Dull blades are the worst enemy of the lawn. You left your lawn open to all sorts of undesirables. If you have a brown, gray face paint your lawn announcement a day after working,check the blades of grass. The tops of the wings will probably be broken, jagged, or a little 'hard. This means you need to sharpen the blades. Reel mowers need to buy a lawn mower sharpened, but sharpen a mower blade is a simple DIY job. All you need is a file, vise, adjustable wrench and a system for balancing the blade, you can get to almost any lawn and garden shop.

Mowing Etiquette

Mow label is largely up to your digression, but you should have acertain amount of respect for your neighbors when you run the lawn maintenance. In other words, do not finish your fan in a gas at 6 am Sunday morning, when your neighbors sleep. Do not blow your leaves and clippings in the street or on your neighbors property.

How to Mow

The purpose of mowing the lawn is to provide an even cut, have an attractive lawn. Follow these rules to help achieve this:

Remove all sticks, stones or other debrisin the lawn before mowing.
Make sure the mower is the right height and change if necessary.
Mow-header strips at each end of the lawn, around trees and other obstacles.
ensure Cut in straight rows between the header and overlapping each row on a good supply.
Avoid mowing when wet. It can cause irregular cut and clippings can mat and smother the grass.
Change the direction that you work from time to time. Mow at an angle of 45-90 degrees from your previous work.
Mow in the evening, so your lawn does not have to suffer with the heat.
Avoid sharp turns with the mower can cause irregular cut. The point is spreading or turn sidewalks or driveways.

Tip: If you have a lot of shadows on the lawn, mow 1 / 2 "of the recommended upper lawn to capture more sunlight for the enhancement of photosynthesis.

Maintenance Secrets

If you do, you can increase the life of your equipment.Keep gas tanks full. Immediately after the end of the cut, cutting or blowing each tank fill too full. This is to prevent condensation and polluting your machine. At the end of the season, run your unit until it is dry or siphon all the gas. Doing two things have improved start your. The last thing we want is to slow start or not start:)

Finish the job

Now you have mowed the lawn, it's time to put the finishing touches.Early in the season, you can use a straight edger along sidewalks and driveways cut. Then you can keep up with a trimmer on the line for the rest of the season and it is difficult to achieve blades around trees and against buildings. Finally, use a blower or pushbroom, to remove any remaining clippings on the lawn again. The finishing touches make the difference between a mediocre lawn and a big lawn.
