Spring is just around the corner, and for landscapers and lawn care professionals, that means it’s time to gear up for another busy season. A well-maintained commercial lawn mower is essential for keeping operations running smoothly and efficiently. Don’t wait until the first day of mowing to realize you’re missing a crucial part—now is the time to address mower maintenance and ensure you have everything you need.
Stock Up on Essential Parts
Regular mower maintenance helps extend the life of your equipment and ensures peak performance throughout the season. Whether you operate an Ariens mower, Gravely mower, or other agri mowers, keeping essential parts on hand can save you time and prevent costly delays. Here are some key components to check and stock up on:
- Blades – Sharp blades ensure a clean cut, reducing stress on the grass and promoting healthier lawns.
- Belts – Worn or damaged belts can lead to performance issues and costly downtime.
- Filters – Air and fuel filters keep your mower’s engine running smoothly.
- Spark Plugs – Replacing spark plugs ensures efficient fuel combustion and prevents starting issues.
- Tires and Wheels – Properly inflated and well-maintained tires improve traction and maneuverability.
Inspect and Service Your Mowers
In addition to stocking up on parts, it’s important to inspect and service your commercial lawn mower before the season starts. Here’s a quick checklist:
- Check Oil Levels & Change if Needed – Proper lubrication is key to engine longevity.
- Inspect and Sharpen Blades – Dull blades can cause uneven cuts and damage grass.
- Examine Cables and Connections – Frayed cables or loose connections can lead to operational issues.
- Test the Battery – Ensure your battery is fully charged and functioning properly.
- Clean the Deck and Undercarriage – Built-up debris can impact performance and airflow.
By taking these proactive steps, you can ensure your equipment is in top shape for the demanding mowing season ahead.
