Things to Consider when Choosing a Ride-On Mower
Looking to purchase a used riding lawn mower to speed up the process? There are a few things to consider before you make your choice:
Manual vs hydrostatic transmission
A manual system will be most familiar to regular car drivers, but hydrostatic transmission is often good for manoeuvring around obstacles. The
latter is more expensive, but also tends to have better speed control and often cruise control – ideal when tackling wider, open areas.
Cutting width
If you’re looking to tackle larger areas with speed, then the wider your riding mower is, the more ground you can cover in a shorter space of
time. However, think about the width of any gates or storage facilities that you will need to use with your ride-on mower, as you don’t want to
purchase something too big.
Engine size
If you’re planning to pull additional trailers with your riding mower, then consider a more powerful engine. The same applies if you’re likely
to be using it on steeper ground. Otherwise, for less demanding jobs and terrains, a standard engine will suffice.
