The gasoline lawn mower is suitable for leaving both a small lawn, and for a significant area of the territory in the area.
The main advantages of gasoline lawn mowers are high performance. The absence of feed wires and the possibility of long-term offline work.
The main criteria for choosing gasoline lawn mower
1. Width of the mowing
It is this parameter that basically determines the time that will be required to spend on the care of the lawn. On the square of less than 4 acres, you can use a compact model with a width of 30-34 cm. If the lawn takes 4-6 acres, it is worth purchasing a model with a width of 38-42 cm; From 6 acres - 46 cm and more.2. Engine torque
What he is higher, the easier it is to mow high and thick grass. With a lawn area of 1-6 acres, the torque should be 6.1-9.83h · m. For the lawn from 6 acres, the unit is suitable with a torque of 8.48-11.87h · m.

3. Launch method
Manual start requires effort, patience and knowledge of the "character" of a particular engine. Significantly relieve manual start allows the READYSTART system: without requiring additional operations, such as pumping and manipulation with dampers, the engine starts no more than two cable jerks. This is guaranteed by the manufacturer - otherwise the company will provide free repair of the motor.
In engines with Instart system, the battery is easily removed. The time of complete charging, which is enough for 50 launches, is 1 h.
Even more convenient to start using the button, like engines with Instart technology, equipped with electronic ignition and rechargeable battery.
Almost all modern gasoline four-stroke engines for wheeled lawn mowers have the OHV design (valve top arrangement). This solution reduces the level of emission of exhaust gases, reduce fuel consumption and significantly increase efficiency.
4. Easy service
In the gasoline engine, every 50 hours of operation or 1 time per season can change the oil and air filter, and every 100 hours of the spark plug. Oil replacements do not require only new engines with JustCheckandadd technology, allowing simply to add oil when its level drops below the check mark.
A stabilizing additive allows you to extend the shelf life of fuel from 30 days to two or three years.

5. Drive on wheels
Aggregates with drivers on wheels (self-propelled) are optimal for sections from 6 acres. If the area in the lawn exceeds 15 acres, one should look at the riders (minitractors).
For a conventional gardening plot with several weaves of lawn, it is quite suitable for the price and easy-to-maintenance model
6. Mulching feature
It allows you to do without a container for grass: Grinding stalks are scattered on the lawn, overload and serve fertilizer. However, it should be borne in mind that this feature is good in a dry climate. During abundant summer rains, when the growth of lawn is extremely intense, the mulching mechanism may not cope and malfunctions.7. Function of the side emitting of grass
This option also allows you to leave grass on the lawn.
