Lawn Mower Spring Maintenance Tips

It’s that time of year again; with spring just around the corner, grass will soon be demanding your attention. Chances are, your lawn mower probably hasn’t seen the light of day in a few months. There are a few things to do before tackling that sprouting lawn.

 

1. Change the oil. This is a necessary step to ensure that your lawn mower stays reliable well beyond the summer. It’s not difficult to change your lawn mower’s oil, but if you’re not comfortable doing it, you can take it to a professional for a small fee. 

2. Use fresh gas. 

3. Change spark plugs. Gas powered mowers need a spark plug to start. While it probably isn’t necessary to change your spark plug every year, you should do so if its been a few years. 

4. Change the air filter. This should be done every two years. A clean air filter is essential for proper engine function 

5. Sharpen the blades. The blades are the most important part of your lawn mower. Dull blades can leave a lawn looking like it was chewed up.
