Have You Done Your Lawn Mower Maintenance Yet?
Summary
Getting your lawn mower to start after winter can be frustrating. Conducting maintenance before winter storage can save you time in spring, extend the mower's lifespan, and reduce costs.Article Body
Struggling to start your lawn mower after winter? A bit of maintenance before storage can prevent this hassle, extend your mower's life, and save money over the long term.
If you’ve already stored your lawn mower, some simple tasks before spring can still be highly beneficial. Start by washing and drying your mower once the mowing season is over. A power blower can help remove grass and debris from hard-to-reach areas. For air-cooled engines, use a stick to clear residue from cooling fins. If water-cooled, check and fill the coolant reservoir if needed, and clean the radiator fins with water.
Next, drain the fuel tank and replace the fuel filter. Clean the air filter housing and replace the air filter. Check the spark plug for wear. Instead of cleaning a worn plug, replace it. Clearing debris before removal and applying anti-seize compound during installation will ease future replacements.
Lubricate throttle linkages and the choke, and apply grease to the mower deck and fittings. Removing the mower deck allows you to sharpen blades for a better cut next season.
Clean battery terminals and replace the battery if necessary. Grease the terminals to prevent corrosion. Also, change the engine oil and replace the oil filter.
Before winter storage, drain the gas. During the mowing season, clean your mower and remove debris once it has cooled. Regular cleaning will extend its life and simplify maintenance.
A well-maintained lawn mower makes yard work more enjoyable throughout the summer. An annual check-up keeps it running smoothly and ensures your lawn looks its best.
Performing these maintenance tasks each year will ensure your lawn mower performs optimally. Regularly check the oil, air filters, and fuel filters during summer. This upkeep will save money and keep your lawn mower functioning for years.
