Guide: Choose the right electric lawn mower for your needs
When choosing the right electric lawn mower for your needs, there are several things to consider. We've put together an overview of the factors you should look for before investing in a new mower.
- Power: The power of the electric lawn mower determines how powerful it is and is therefore a particularly important factor to look for. High power and a powerful motor can be an advantage for large or medium-sized lawns.
- Collector: It's a good idea to check if your electric lawn mower has a collector. This is a container that collects the grass clippings while you mow. This is a great advantage, so you don't have to rake up the grass afterwards.
- Adjustable cutting height: Do you need your eclectic lawn mower to have an adjustable cutting height? That way, you can decide how you want to cut the grass.
- Cutting width: The cutting width determines how wide an area the electric lawn mower can cut in one go. A wide cutting width can be an advantage if you have a large garden, as it will make mowing faster. On the other hand, a narrow cutting width can be an advantage if you have many narrow passages in your garden.
- Weight: The weight of the electric lawn mower can affect how easy it is to manoeuvre around. A lightweight mower is easy to push and turn, while a heavy mower can be more stable and robust. Typically, an electric mower is on the lighter end compared to other types.
If you take these factors into consideration when buying a new electric lawn mower, you can be sure to get a model that suits your needs.
Consider the wire when mowing your lawn
If you decide to invest in an electric mower, you need to pay special attention to the cord. It's important to know where the cord is located when you mow the lawn. Otherwise, you risk accidentally cutting it.
To avoid accidentally running over the cord, it's important to use the right cutting technique. It's a good idea to start near where the cord is connected and work your way away from the power supply. This way, you'll always know where the cord is and avoid accidentally cutting it.
Finding the right technique can take a little practice, but once you get it right, mowing with an electric lawnmower is easy.
3 tips: How to maintain your electric lawn mower
An electric lawn mower can last for many years if you know how to maintain and take good care of it. This is important to ensure a long service life. We've put together our top tips on how to take good care of your new electric mower:
- Clean it regularly: Keeping your electric lawn mower clean is important to ensure it works optimally. After use, make sure to remove grass and dirt from the undercarriage. This will actually improve your mower's performance and extend its lifespan.
- Check the blades: The blades of an electric lawnmower are an important part of the machine's efficiency. Make sure to check them regularly for wear and tear. If the blades are dull or damaged, they won't be able to cut as efficiently. Fortunately, you can replace the blades yourself if needed.
- Store it correctly: When you're not using your electric mower, it's important to store it in a dry and safe place. This will protect it from the elements and extend its lifespan. If you have the option, it's a good idea to store your electric lawn mower in a shed or garage.
