Lawn Mower Use & Maintenance — Full Guide

Fegmatic Lawn Mower — Tough on Grass. Easy on You.

Lawn mowers are essential for keeping outdoor spaces clean and professional, whether it’s a residential yard or industrial premises. Like any precision tool, proper use and regular maintenance of your Fegmatic lawn mower ensures smooth operation, longer service life, and most importantly—a perfect cut every time.

✅ Before You Mow: Setup & Inspection

  • Check Engine Oil & Fuel Levels: Always top up with recommended fuel and oil before use.
  • Inspect the Blade: Ensure the blade is sharp and securely tightened. Replace or sharpen if it's nicked or dull.
  • Clean the Undercarriage: Remove grass buildup under the deck to prevent clogging and corrosion.
  • Adjust Cutting Height: Set the blade height based on grass type and season—lower in dry season, higher in wet conditions.
  • Check Tires (If Wheeled): Ensure tire pressure is even and not overly worn.

🏡 During Operation: Best Practices

  • Clear the Area: Remove stones, sticks, or debris that could damage the blade or injure someone.
  • Push or Guide with Care: Maintain a steady pace—rushing may leave uneven patches and stress the engine.
  • Avoid Wet Grass: Mowing wet grass can clog the mower and cause uneven cuts.
  • Use on Level Ground: If mowing on a slope, move across the slope (not up/down) to avoid tipping over.

🧽 Post-Mow Cleaning & Maintenance

  • Turn Off & Disconnect Spark Plug: Always disconnect the spark plug before touching the blade or cleaning the deck.
  • Clean Grass & Debris: Use a brush or water hose to clean the underside of the deck.
  • Check Air Filter & Spark Plug: Clean or replace them regularly for better fuel efficiency.
  • Inspect the Drive Belt & Wheels: Lubricate moving parts and ensure everything is aligned properly.
