OK dad, I’ve been wihtout a lawnwower most of the summer. I want to take one last swipe at the acre with the push mower and then use the lawn sweep to clean it up. If I take the bag off the push mower what kind of trouble do you think I’ll find if I try to chop up the very long 1’+ bent over grass and the leaves on top of it?
Okay, so if you are putting a lawn mower away for the winter, you should check the oil, rebalance and sharpen the blade, and at least rinse off all the dead grass and dirt after the engine has cooled down.
