Lawn Mowing is an important aesthetic task performed to maintain an equal length of the lawn, there are various types of lawn mowers avilable to get the job done.  One of the newest and most popular types of lawn mowers is the zero turning lawn mower.

A nice looking lawn requires a lot of work.Plants, trees and shrubs give the yard a pleasing, garden-like touch. Fences, gateways, walls and fountains add to the lawn creating  more challenges in maneuvering around them. If you hate all the manual work involved in doing the cutting and edging you should consider the zero turning lawnmower. The turning radius of these lawn mowers is zero inches. These lawn mowers are designed to turn on a dime, with no spots of grass left un-mowed. They are designed to cut closely around obstacles leaving virtually no need to trim.

The zero turn lawn mower can save you time since it requires less turning than a conventional mower. These machines are designed for heavy-duty usage and outstanding maneuverability. Zero turn lawn mowers can run up to 7mph with twice the blade speed of a lawn tractor.

Keeping the blades sharp is important for cutting grass with ease. A sharp lawn mower blade cuts the grass crisply  preventing it from dying after you cut it.

Zero turning lawn  mowers steer by changing the speeds of the drive tires. The tire speed is controlled by two levers, one on either side of the driver and typically extending over the lap. This makes is impossible to do anything else with either hand including waving to neighbors when steering a zero turning lawn mower. If you do you will quickly veer off into the opposite direction.

Some things to consider about Zero Turning Lawn Mowers:

  • These lawn mowers are  more prone to tipping on sloped ground. Make sure your mower is equipped with a roll bar.
  • Most lawn mower accidents occur when driving backwards. Make sure it has a feature that shuts off the mower when you back up.
  • Dealer service  can cost a few hundred dollars a year.
  • Zero turning lawn mowers are hard to steer downhill because, unlike tractors, they steer with their rear wheels and shouldn’t be used on slopes 10 to 15 degrees or greater.
  • The weight of the mower can damage the lawn especially when driving over wet, softened turf.
  • Very high db levels require wear ear protection.
  • If you hit an immovable object at high speed, some damage will occur.
  • Any solid object hit by the blades could become a lethal projectile.


A beautiful lawn awaits. With these simple steps, you will make quick work of cutting the grass without ruining it.
