Get your lawnmower ready for the summer season, with these tips from Robert Kee Power Equipment! 
1. What routine maintenance should I do weekly, before and after mowing?
Maintenance requirements will vary by model. The owner’s manual provides a maintenance schedule.
In general, the engine oil, air filter, blades, and grass bag should be checked before each use.
2. What is proper mower maintenance?
In general: The mower must be carefully inspected at the beginning of the season. Depending on the usage, cables may need adjustment, the blade(s) may need to be sharpened or replaced and engine oil changed.
The blade(s) and oil should be checked before or after each mowing.
At the end of the season, the mower should prepared for storage as detailed in the owner manual.
3. What are the signs of a worn mower blade?
A worn or dull mower blade will tend to shred the grass leaf rather than cutting it cleanly. The result is a jagged tip that turns brown rapidly.
This, in turn, gives the entire lawn a brownish or tan appearance for several days.
The turfgrass might actually appear to be diseased or stressed, but the green color will gradually be restored as the grass leaves grow.
4. Why is it important to sharpen the blade?
A worn or dull blade produces a poor cut. The jagged tips produced by a worn mower blade are also open wounds for the invasion of diseased organisms.
A properly sharpened blade is also a balanced blade, which reduces vibration, extends the life of the mower, and makes it more comfortable to use.
