Top 5 Lawn Equipment Maintenance Tips to Extend Your Machine’s Life

Proper maintenance is the key to keeping your outdoor power equipment working like new. Follow these five simple tips from K&G Mowers to extend the life of your lawn mowers, trimmers, and blowers.

1️⃣ Keep It Clean

After every use, remove grass, mud, and debris from under the deck and around the engine. Built-up dirt can lead to corrosion and overheating.

2️⃣ Sharpen Your Blades

Dull blades tear the grass instead of cutting it cleanly, stressing both your lawn and your engine. Sharpen or replace your blades every season for the best results.

3️⃣ Replace Filters Regularly

Air and fuel filters are small parts that make a big difference. A clogged filter can reduce power and increase fuel use. Replace them every few months, especially during peak season.

4️⃣ Change the Oil

Just like a car, your mower’s engine oil needs changing. Fresh oil keeps the motor running smoothly and prevents wear and tear.

5️⃣ Store It Right

Before winter, drain fuel, clean the equipment, and store it in a dry place. This simple step prevents rust and fuel issues.
