Live Self Sufficient

In order to effectively maintain your lawnmower, it is a good idea to learn more about the different parts that can be found within the machine. Being able to identify common lawnmower parts will greatly speed up the time it takes you to conduct normal maintenance tasks. This will keep your lawnmower working efficiently for years to come.

Look on the front of your lawnmower. You may notice a part that looks like a grill. This is the lawnmower’s cooling vents.

Examine the area around the cooling vents. Around this area you should be able to locate the spark plug. This common lawnmower part needs cleaned at the start of each season.

Inspect the front wheels of your lawnmower. You will find a lever located on one of the wheels that will control the height of the blade. Use this lever to select the desired height of your lawn.

On the underside of the lawnmower you will see a flat piece of metal that spins in a circular motion. This is your lawnmower’s blade and it will need to be sharpened regularly in order to maintain its effectiveness.

Your lawnmower’s air filter may not be visible. In order to find this common lawnmower part, you will need to remove the air filter cap with a screwdriver. This is commonly located near the top of your lawnmower around the device’s engine.

Check the operator’s manual for your lawnmower. There should be a diagram that accurately pinpoints each of the common lawnmower parts that you will want to be able to identify.
