How do I keep my lawn mower working correctly?

• <div><p>Lawnmowers<a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/8-maintenance-tips-keep-your-lawn-mower-running.htm"> require seasonal maintenance</a> to continue working correctly. With routine maintenance, you can extend its life to the fullest, which is around 10 years for push mowers and 5-8 years for riding mowers. To keep your lawn mower working correctly, you’ll want to take the following steps at least once a year:</p><ul><li><p>Replace the spark plug</p></li><li><p>Change the oil</p></li><li><p>Drain the fuel tank</p></li><li><p>Clean the mowing deck (ideally, after every mow)</p></li><li><p>Replace the air filter</p></li><li><p>Check the carburetor</p></li><li><p>Sharpen the blades</p></li><li><p>Fog the engine</p></li><li><p>Check the tires</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: Why is my lawn mower smoking?

• <div><p>Sometimes dark smoke trailing out of your lawn mower is the result of excess oil. It smokes as it burns off. Other times, it could signal a problem with the combustion or contaminated fuel. If changing the fuel and cleaning your mower doesn&rsquo;t help, call a professional (especially if the smoke is white).</p></div>

Q: How long does lawn mower repair take?

• <div><p>Most repairs take 1-3 days, but complex issues may require ordering replacement parts, extending the timeline.</p></div>

Q: How long do reel mowers last?

• <div><p>If you keep it clean and sharp, your reel mower should last for about 10-20 years. In comparison, the lifespan of most self-propelled lawn mowers is about half as long as that.</p></div>

Q: Do services include blade sharpening?

• <div><p>Yes, many repair services include blade sharpening as part of the maintenance package.</p></div>
