How to choose a lawnmower?

Jul 05, 2022

The first step in choosing a lawnmower is to understand the characteristics of the lawn. The area of the lawn will affect your choice of engine horsepower, and the characteristics of the lawn terrain determine the performance of the mower.

Generally speaking, an engine of 3.5 to 5 horsepower can be fully competent for weeding small lawns. The engine suitable for this kind of lawn must have the characteristics of stable starting and reliable performance. The hand push engine does not need much maintenance, and is suitable for weeding in small areas. It starts smoothly and conveniently.

For medium-sized lawns, 5 to 6.5 horsepower hand mowers or 8.5 to 12.5 horsepower mounted mowers are suitable. Since the weeding area is directly proportional to the engine power, when you buy a lawnmower, please pay attention to the durability and working time limit of the engine.

Large lawns must be equipped with high-power engines (garden tractors of 20 to 25 horsepower). Using a lawnmower with low power to tidy up a large area of lawn will not only cause damage to the equipment, but also reduce the service life of the equipment. The 22 horsepower lawnmower can meet your needs.

For lawns with simple terrain such as gentle slope and few corners, it is recommended that you use a basic hand push lawnmower. An excellent hand-propelled lawnmower must have a feature of convenient starting. For lawns with uneven ground and obstacles, the mower is required to have better directional control performance. The self-propelled mower can move easily, and the small mounted mower is also relatively easy to operate. In this case, you can choose an I / C engine with a power of 12.5 to 17.5 horsepower for your mounted mower. This engine not only has strong power, but also saves fuel. In addition, it has the advantages of low operating temperature, thus extending the service life of the engine.

The large-area courtyard with undulating terrain and heavy surface obstacles poses a great challenge to the performance of the engine. Lvyuan garden machinery has tractors suitable for lawns, which can shoulder the tasks of raking, sweeping, carrying, traction, ploughing, farming and weeding.
