Buyer Guide Riding Lawn Mowers & Tractors

 If you’ve been reading my articles, you’d know that I like to talk about lawn equipment. Well, today, I want to give you a few pointers when it comes to buying lawnmowers.

• Engine. Now, when it comes to engines, there are two options. You can choose either a gas engine or an electric engine.
• Price. When it comes to price, you’re likely going to find a lawn mower that is somewhere between $100 and $500.
• Size. Some lawnmowers are smaller and some are larger. The smallest lawnmowers, of course, are electric and hover above the ground, being much smaller than their gas-powered counterparts.
• Deck size. The deck size refers to the size of the cutting deck.
• Mowing height. Mowing height refers to how high the mower blade is from the ground.
• 3-in-1 Mowers. 3-in-1 mowers are also known as 2-in-1 mowers.
• Self-propelled lawnmowers. These mowers are self-propelled and do not require any input from the rider.
• Riding lawnmowers. These mowers require a rider to operate them.
• Electric lawn mowers. An electric motor powers these mowers.

How to choose Riding Lawn Mowers & Tractors

 When shopping for a riding lawn mower, it’s important to consider a few things before making a purchase:

• What size mower do you need? A typical riding mower is 24- to 40-inches wide. The smaller models are good for smaller yards and mowing smaller areas. The larger models are great for large properties or areas.
• What kind of deck do you want? Most riding mowers come with either a mulching or bagging system. Mulching mowers cut grass into small pieces and scatter them on the ground. Bagging mowers collect the grass in a plastic bag that can be emptied later. Some mowers come with both systems — allowing you to choose which one works best for you and your yard.
• Do you want to buy a self-propelled mower? Self-propelled mowers are motorized, and allow you to mow the lawn more easily.
• How much weight can the mower handle? Although this may not apply to everyone, it’s important to consider how much weight the mower can handle — especially if you have a large lawn.
• How tall are your mower’s tires? Most riding mowers have 10-, 12- and 14-inch tires, but you’ll want to make sure the tires are the right height for your property. If you have large, hilly areas, you may need to look for larger tires.
• How long is the mower’s warranty? Most riding mowers offer at least a 3-year warranty on the engine.
• How much does the mower cost? The cost of riding mowers can range from $250 to over $3,000.

 

How to maintain Riding Lawn Mowers & Tractors

Riding mowers are a favorite of many avid gardeners. However, some maintenance tasks, such as changing spark plugs, may require professional service.

• When you change your mower’s spark plug, be gentle with the trim plug and distributor cap.
• When mowing your lawn, make sure to not overexert yourself.
• If you often find your mower sitting idle for long periods of time, you may want to consider replacing your spark plug, air filter, or fuel filter.
• If you have an older gas-powered mower, you may want to replace the spark plug with one that has a metal tip. This can prevent the plug from breaking off, and extend the life of your mower.
