Selecting the Correct Mower for Your Yard

We will ask questions about your yard to outfit you with the right lawn mower.  How large is your yard?  Are there areas on your property that are always wet?  Is your yard flat or on a hill or slope?  Who is using the mower?  Do you have a lot of trees?  Are there obstacles you need to mow around and under?  Have you considered a battery powered lawn mower?

Residential walk behind mowers have many features and options:

• Push or self-propelled
• Recoil or electric start 
• Material the cutting deck is made of
• Baggers
• Mulchers 
• Side discharge

Our Highly Experienced and Knowledgeable Staff Will Guide You!

You’ll need plenty of power when selecting a walk behind mower, especially if you are bagging or mulching.  Walk behind mowers with a rear bag should have rear wheel drive (the self-propelled wheels should be in the back).  You want the power in the back of the walk behind mower because as the bag fills, the rear end of the mower will be heavier and you, the operator, do not want to “carry” that weight.  

Walk Behind Lawn Mower Tips, Courtesy of the Experts at Do-Cut

• Be sure to empty your walk behind mower bag before it is overly full – it’s easier to handle that way.  
• You may also want to consider a walk behind mower that has an electric start; just push a button to easily start your mower!  
• Be sure to keep the battery charged.  If the battery has depleted on your electric start mower, you may have to pull start the mower to get it running. There is a recoil start on the walk behind mower’s engine, but as long as the battery is charged, you will not need to pull start the mower.
•  Look for a residential walk behind mower with easy, comfortable controls and has a walking pace that suits your stride.  
• If your walk behind mower can mulch or recycle the grass clippings back into your yard, that’s great! Remember you are nourishing your yard at the same time.  The mower cuts the grass into tiny pieces and returns them to your yard.  
• When mulching or recycling, be sure to adjust the height of cut on your mower to accommodate the thickness, moisture content and growth of your grass.  When using a mulching/recycling walk behind mower the rule of thumb is to try to not cut more than 1/3 of the growth, keep your mower blade very sharp, and keep the undercarriage of the mower deck clean.  
• You may need to scrape under the walk behind mower deck to remove any clippings that accumulate. When doing so, you will want to tip the mower air cleaner side up.  Always wear the correct safety clothing, eye protection and gloves when cleaning beneath your walk behind mower deck, or performing any routine maintenance on your lawnmower.  
• If you have a gas-powered walk behind mower, remember to use Ethanol-Free gasoline in your mower’s engine.  
• If you don’t have a lot of room in your garage or shed, some residential walk behind mowers even have a smart stow feature that allows you to store the mower on two wheels saving valuable floor space!  Please note, only certain walk behind mowers have this feature. 
• Most walk behind mower cutting decks are made of steel, aluminum or a polymer.  The benefits of a steel walk behind mower deck are that it is usually less expensive but you need to be sure you are keeping your lawnmower deck clean. If you hose it off after use, be sure to start the mower blade and blow any water out from beneath the lawnmower deck.  
• Aluminum walk behind mower decks are durable, rust-proof and engineered for superior air flow.  It is still very important to clean under an aluminum deck, and start the mower blade if you hose it off to clean it.  
• Polymer walk behind mower decks are light, aerodynamic, engineered for superior air flow. Depending on the moisture content of the grass, clippings don’t usually accumulate as much beneath a lawnmower deck made of a polymer.  You will need to clean under the mower deck and if you use water to rinse it off, always start the lawnmower blade to blow out any excess water.  This is just a good rule of thumb when cleaning beneath any mower deck with water.

Gasoline or Battery Powered Mower

Are you thinking of replacing your gasoline powered walk behind mower with a battery powered walk behind mower?  If so, take a look in your garage and see what other equipment you may want to convert to battery at a later date like a trimmer, blower, snowblower or hedge trimmer.  Buy a residential mower whose battery can be used in other equipment of the same brand.  Batteries need to be re-charged so you will always want to purchase a spare battery for your mower so you always have one charged and ready to go!

A reliable, quality walk behind mower isn’t going to stop working after one season.  We all have sustainability on our minds and think about the environment, but sustainability doesn’t just relate to a gasoline mower vs. a battery-powered mower, it’s about the longevity of the walk behind mower too.  We don’t want to throw the walk behind mower away after one season, we want it to last.

You didn’t think mowing equipment was this complicated right?  It’s a simple concept, but there are quite a few things to think about when purchasing a walk behind mower.  Purchasing your walk behind mower from an authorized, full-service dealer like Do-Cut provides you with the total package.
