Recommendations for how to take action

  • How To Start

    Determine the size of reel mower needed for your lawn. Bigger mowers may make mowing faster but also make maneuverability more difficult.

  • What Comes Next

    Once you’ve secured a reel mower, make sure your lawn is free of rocks or obstacles that could harm the blades.
