Commercial Lawn Mowers
|
When it comes to professional lawn care or maintenance of bigger facilities, commercial lawn mowers are definitely a great investment and sometimes must own equipment. For example, many lawn care companies will need equipment that is a grade above residential mowers because of the high frequency of use and cost of investment. Thus, it makes great sense to invest in a mower that can will not only lower the overall time it takes to cut a lawn but one that is also durable enough to make a bigger return on the initial investment. This is where commercial lawn mowers work the best as they are more durable, are often more efficient, and packed with features to make mowing easier. There are several manufacturers of commercial mowers who believe in quality products and maintenance crews of big fields and lawn care companies are all users of these products. |
There are many differences in a residential mower and a commercial mower rather it is a walk behind or a riding model. One of the big differences is durability, which is very important to the return on investment for the buyer. Durability can be found in different parts of the lawn mower from the tires to the engine. Commercial lawn mowers usually consist of more expensive parts that are high in quality and will last quite a while. Cutting decks are one of the differences and an example is the 7-Iron II™ Deck from John Deere which is made from 7-gauge steel, allows faster blade speeds, and minimizes clumping. Many other commercial models will have similar decks that are very sturdy and able to cut the tallest grass with ease. Another important difference is the engines of commercial lawn mowers. These engines are usually bigger, more dependable engines that can be started and used in many jobs without the slightest sign of a problem. These commercial mowers will have quality engines with preferably 2 cylinders with higher displacement and horsepower. Other parts like the tires, handles, and controls are also important differences that make mowing easier. The warranty is sometimes a factor and commercial grade mowers will sometimes have similar warranties as residential models.

A commercial lawn mower is a major investment so it is a good idea to check the warranty and see if there are any trial periods that companies may offer. Having a trial run may greatly help in deciding if a particular mower will be fit for desired use. |
