Lawn Mower Parts Review and How to Choose From Gas, Electric and Battery powered mowers
Depending on the type of your lawnmower, you will need to stock
different parts in your house. It may be possible to get these
parts off the shelf from your friendly neighborhood dealer. But
to ensure continued availability you need to have these parts
with you, where you can get it easily. You will be able to save
a Saturday, when you normally mow the lawn. These parts are not
costly and one will always be able to afford the investment in
the lawn mower parts .
Parts For Gas Engine lawnmower
For your gas engine lawnmower you need to stock larger number of
parts and consumable than the electric or battery operated
lawnmower. This is so because, the lawnmower has many numbers of
parts and when upgrading their products the companies do not
bother to make spares for the earlier products. In such cases,
you may have to on a hunting expedition to get these parts. It
is better to stock them instead of the expeditions. The parts
that you can store are
- Spark Plugs: Spark plugs of lawnmowers are different from the
plugs of your car and are not quickly available and are the
first thing to go wrong. So have a plug handy.
- Belts: Just as the spark plugs, belts have a habit of breaking
down, when required most. (May be Murphy's laws is applicable
here too). Belts are easy to change and you need not stop you
lawn maintenance just because the belt has broken downat 7
o'clock in morning when no shop is open and your lawn needs
maintenance as your guests are coming by 10 o'clock
-
Blades, Mulching Kits, Shafts, Adapters &
Accessories: You can also stock them for continued use of your
lawnmower
- Make a stock of hardware necessary for fixing small problems
with lawn mowers and small engines.
- Throttle and choke cables, battery lead etc. should also be
stocked.
Parts For Electric Lawnmowers
Electric lawnmowers require less number of parts than the gas
engine counterpart. The following parts may be maintained for
electric lawnmowers - Fuses and fuse holder: These are the
easiest and cheapest parts to store. You may store them along
with other electrical items.
- Cables and cable winder spares: The mess after the cable
winder breaks down should be seen to be believed. A cable winder
will not accept any joint in cable and cable if it gets damaged,
should be replaced or shortened
- Switches tools and connectors are also parts to be stocked.
Parts For Battery Lawnmower
Such lawnmowers require least parts to be stocked. You may stock
only the switches and battery leads etc.
Therefore, if you stock above parts your lawnmower will serve
you for long periods.
