Lawn mowers need
work before winter
DOVER, Del. - Some good
basic maintenance work on
lawn mowers now can save
time and trouble next spring.
Thomas H. Williams,
extension agricultural
engineer at the University of
Delaware, recommends the
following overhaul when
putting the machines away
for the winter.
First of all, a person
should wash the mower with
kerosene or fuel oil to
remove any dirt, grease, oil
and clippings accumulated
this year. Then the gas tank
and carburetor should be
drained and refilled with
alcohol. Each should be
soaked long enough to
dissolve any gum that may
have formed.
Next, the air filter is
removed and cleaned ac
cording to the manufac
turer’s instructions. The
dirty oil is drained from the
crankcase and replaced with
fresh oil of the proper
weight.
A perosn should remove
and clean or replace the
spark plug and pour a small
amount of gasoline in the
tank. Next he starts the
engine and lets it run until
the fuel is used. (One should
be sure this is done in a well
ventilated place.) Then, the

Also discussed at the
meeting were plans for the
Christmas banquet to be
held December 3 at 7 p.m.
wheel bearings and moving
parts should be lubricated.
Finally, with the spark
plug wire disconnected, one
must check the blade and
sharpen or replace it if
necessary- If sharpening the
blade, a person should take
care not to get it out of
balance, cautions Williams.
The job is finished by lightly
coating the blade with oil to
prevent rust. For safety’s
sake, it is best to replace the
bolt that holds the blade on
the mower. These bolts
become weakened,
especially if they’ve been
banged with a hammer.
While working on the
blade, a person can take
time for one last step. With
the mower resting on a flat
surface, the blade is ad
justed so that its cutting
edge is at least two inches
above theis surface. Setting
the blade at this height will
give a more vigorous lawn,
better able to tolerate
drought, wear and other
stresses.
