Four types of lawn mowers exist in mowers family.
1-Walk Behind Mowers
Hand push: A push mower, which needs the user to push a powered blade cutter with wheels across the grass, is the one that most people are familiar with. The vertical wheels on the reel (cylinder) lawnmower run along the “wheel drive gears,” which spin the reel quickly and cut the grass. Depending on the model, the cutting mechanism may be touch or non-contact. The reel mower is available in a variety of models and can be operated manually or by motor (gasoline or electric). Though they occasionally struggle to cut long straws or weeds, the reel mower usually produces a very clean and even cut. Typically, they are easy to maintain, reasonably priced, and silent.Though they occasionally struggle to cut long straws or weeds, the reel mower usually produces a very clean and even cut. Typically, they are easy to maintain, reasonably priced, and silent. They weigh 12 to 20 kg, are lighter, and come with 8 to 10 inch wheels, five or six blades, and a variety of cutting widths, from 12 to 16 inches. Note: Some heavy-duty roller machines may be pushed by five persons or an animal, depending on the specifications. Power was transferred from the rear roller to the cutting cylinder using cast iron gear wheels.
Self-propelled: A hand push mower needs the operator’s energy to transport it from one location to another. An engine or motor powers the back rollers of a self-propelled mower, so the user just needs to steer and guide the machine—no force is needed to move it about the yard. While both sorts of mowers provide very equal results, if the yard has hills or is quite vast, a self propelled mower may be appropriate; however, if a yard is smaller and flat, then a push mower may be sufficient. Clutch levers are used to control self-propelled lawn mowers. Usually, the operator pushes the lever to accelerate the mower and lets go to slow it down or stop it. The size of the engine determines the self-propelled mower’s real speed. However, a push lawnmower can only move as quickly as its user, hence the operator’s speed is the only factor affecting how long it takes to cut the grass. Because self-propelled mowers require additional mechanics, they are usually more costly.
2-Ride On Mowers
Seat mowers: They are larger and more durable than walk-behind mowers, seat mowers are a common substitute for large lawns. The mower has several controls and a seat for the operator, who can actually ride on it. Although they often have several blades on the front side, the majority use the horizontal rotating blade technology. For large lawns, you should get a longer deck because the blade will be longer and able to cut more.
Lawn tractor: This is another popular type of ride-on mower. These often have a cutting deck positioned amidships between the front and rear axles, giving them the appearance of a tiny farm tractor.
3-Pull Behind Mowers
These often take the shape of a tractor attachment that is typically located on the rear. The tractor’s movement can easily operate the attachments. As they break down, the clippings return to your lawn, giving the turf a natural fertilizer. You can’t pull things too fast; for a nice cut, 10 mph is usually the maximum speed. These lawn mowers provide lawns a neat, well-kept appearance and require no upkeep.
Gang reel mowers: Mowers with gang reels Commercial use is possible with gang reel mowers. Tractors have the audacity to pull them. Three, five, or seven machines, each measuring 32 inches in width, may be joined in a frame. Extension wings, frame, and draw bar connect them so that a 25–35 HP tractor can pull them. The cut from a gang reel mower is as good as a pair of scissors. The wide cutting width saves you hours of mowing time. With cutting widths of 10 to 12 feet, seven reel gang mowers will complete the task more quickly.
Rough cutters: Rough cutters are an ideal tool for public parks and are becoming more and more in demand. This rotating 60-inch cutting machine requires a tractor of the proper size, such as a Massey Ferguson 240 with a power take-off (or “PTO”). This implement hitch is located at three points on the tractor’s back. The lower arms may raise the tools, and two of the hitch arms are low with pins that hook into them. The arms are powered by hydraulics. Together, they regulate the attachment’s height and the tractor PTO shaft link with the mower. The upper arm hooks to the top pin at the bars above the unit. The mower features four rubber tires with adjustable treads and three blade sections.
Flail mower: The flail mower is an additional impact-type cutting device. A flail mower’s cutting unit is made up of several tiny blades fastened to a horizontal shaft. Centrifugal force extends the blades as the shaft rotates. Every blade turns into a separate, freely rotating cutting device. As a result, the blade will recoil from a hard object, like a rock or a piece of metal, without harming the mower or launching a hazardous projectile. The blade’s sharpness still affects the cut quality. 4-Robotic Mower :
4-Robotic Mowers
Mostly Small robots are uses in overseas that mow the lawn on their own. It automatically visits its loading station when the battery is going low; there are also solar hybrid models. The robot covers an area within electric perimeter wires buried in the ground. Robotic mowers are quiet, safe, non-polluting, and give an even and good trim to you & are capable of maintaining up to 5 acres. Robotic lawn mowers are increasingly sophisticated, usually self-docking and contain rain sensors, nearly eliminating human interaction for mowing grass.
