Each yard is unique, and different yards require different lawn mowing strategies. Although most homeowners use a normal ride on lawn mower tractor to cut their grass, there is another type that is gaining in popularity. Zero turn ride on lawn mowers can work great for both homeowners and for landscape businesses. Here is a guide to help you decide if a zero turn mower is right for you.
Zero turn lawnmowers work like a front-end loader or a Bobcat. The rear wheels can turn in separate directions, allowing the machine to turn completely around without moving forward or backward. This allows the zero turn mower to have an amazing ability to maneuver around obstacles and mow lawns without having to waste time looping around and around.
Used Zero Turn Mowers
A zero turn mower will work best on a large sized lawn (at least half an acre). It is also great for any large yard that has lots of obstacles to maneuver around like trees, bushes, sheds, etc. Normal ride on lawn mowers are great for many homeowners, but zero turn mowers can get the job done quicker in most cases. They are almost always faster than garden tractors and have a larger cutting deck. This means you will be able to mow a bigger area in less time. Most of these mowers use two handles that are on either side of the seat to control the movement of the mower. You should know that zero turn mowers can roll over easier than other types of mowers. If your yard is pretty flat, this won't matter. If you will be mowing on steeper slopes, get a mower with a roll bar to keep you safe.
One reason many homeowners choose tractor-type ride on lawn mowers is that they are cheaper. You can get a new tractor type ride on lawn mower for ,500, but it will cost you at least ,000 for a new zero turn ride on mower. If you are planning on starting a lawn care business however, there is no question that a zero turn mower is your best option. Nearly all successful lawn care companies use them, and for a good reason. You will be able to work much faster and more efficiently, enabling you to move on to the next job quicker, or go home earlier.
A great option is to buy a used zero turn ride on lawn mower. Due to the fact that many people try to open lawn care businesses that don't work out for one reason or another, there are lots of mowers for sale. Autumn is the best time to be on the lookout for a good deal. You can often find a barely used zero turn mower at a price that is less than a new normal tractor type mower.
