A grass trimmer is an indispensable item as a professional tool. Do you really understand the use and selection of grass trimmers? Let's take a look down together.
Four factors for selecting grass trimmers:
1. The size of the lawn and the situation of users:
Large lawns and people who are not physically strong enough (especially older parents) recommend a self-propelled grass trimmer that is labor-saving.
2. Engine:
The larger the engine displacement, the stronger the power, the cleaner the mowing effect, and it helps the grass trimmer to go uphill.
Engine types can be divided into: valve engine and overhead valve engine (OHV). The latter is more efficient and quieter than the former, and has certain advantages in energy consumption and carbon emissions.
3. Motor:
Plug-in: The maximum power is used throughout the whole process, and the mowing efficiency is high, but it needs continuous power supply. When using it, ensure that the length of the wire is sufficient and whether there is an outlet nearby. Rechargeable: The power is lower than the plug-in type, but it is convenient to use and not affected by the terrain, but the battery needs to be replaced regularly.
4. Terrain:

For flat terrain, you can push by hand or front-wheel drive self-propelled; if it is sloped terrain, you can choose a rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive self-propelled grass trimmer. Also, the larger the wheels of the grass trimmer, the easier it is to push on rugged ground.

Classification and usage scenarios of grass trimmers:

1. Diagonal hanging type: suitable for complex terrain, small areas, mainly flat ground, low requirements for grass, can harvest all kinds of grass, if you change to alloy steel blades, you can also harvest bushes.
2. Knapsack type: similar to the diagonal hanging type, but the structure is more complicated and prone to problems, and the same engine is damaged when the kinetic energy is converted (an extra piece of soft shaft rotation), resulting in a decrease in power.
3. Portable type: suitable for large areas on flat ground, similar to orchards, gardens, etc., there are certain restrictions on the height of the grass (10-20cm), but it requires manpower to push it.
4. Self-propelled type: The configuration is basically the same as the portable type, but it does not require human power.

Mode of grass trimmer:
1. Bagging: After cutting the grass, put it directly into the bag, collect it and go for processing. Among them, bagging can take out the grass clippings and make room for water and light, which is conducive to the photosynthesis of the grass and the restoration of growth.
2. Side unloading: discharge the cut grass through the side opening of the cutting deck to the top of the cut lawn, which is a more energy-efficient way of mowing.

3. Mulching: Pass the cut grass through the restriction board and baffle of the mulching system, and transfer the cut long grass to the deck for the second cutting so that the long grass can be processed into grass clippings and discharged on the lawn When the waste is processed, it provides nourishment for the production of new grass.

The difference between hand-push and self-propelled grass trimmers:

1. Portable type: no transmission device, need to be driven by manpower, the engine only provides the rotation power of the blades.
2. Self-propelled: There is a transmission device, no manual driving is required. The engine not only provides the rotating power of the blades, but also provides power to the driving wheels. The user only needs to hold the handle to turn, which is relatively labor-saving.

Choice of grass trimmer:
The fuel type has high power and long working hours, but the noise and vibration are also more obvious, which is suitable for places with low environmental requirements.
Electric models have low power, short working hours, but low noise, and are more stable to use, but require regular charging, which is suitable for shorter working hours or places closer to the charging place. Front-wheel drive (FWD): The traction is small. When you need to switch, you can turn the front wheel by tilting it up. It is suitable for flat terrain. Rear-wheel drive (RWD): The traction force is greater than that of the front-wheel drive. The overall body is bulky and difficult to turn. It is suitable for uphill and side slope terrain. All-wheel drive (AWD): It has the advantages of both. Although the price is relatively high, it is suitable for flat, uphill, and side slope terrain.
