In these instructional videos, you will learn the basics of lawnmower maintenance. There are two kinds of mowers in current use – reel and rotary mowers. The first of the two kinds cuts grass in a scissor-like action, using one stationary blade and one spinning blade. The rotary mower however uses only spinning blades and cuts the grass at a very high speed. This is the most common type of mower and it uses an internal combustion engine to power the mechanism.
