Which mowing machine is best for my needs?

Maintaining the overall beauty of your outdoor space means taking proper care of your lawn. The appropriate mowing machine can make a big difference in getting the best results. But where do you start? With so many mowers available, it can be difficult to narrow down the selection and to choose the perfect one.

Cutting Edge is the supplier of Husqvarna products in Zimbabwe. We understand the importance of delivering high-quality mowing machines to fulfil the different needs of clients, whether it’s for golf courses, schools, municipalities, businesses or households. We supply a wide range of mowers and have the right tool for your needs.

Understanding your mowing needs

It’s critical to understand your mowing requirements before buying a mower. There are several considerations that you need to have answers to, including lawn size, terrain, grass type and personal choice. Ask yourself the following questions to help you assess your needs:

  • What is the size of your lawn? Is it small and compact, medium in size, or large and expansive?
  • What about the terrain? Is it level, hilly, or sloping?
  • Which kind of grass do you have? Is it a tough and durable grass, like buffalo grass, or a more delicate species? You could have a combination of two or more.
  • Which type of mower do you prefer: manual, electric, battery, ride-on, robotic, or zero-turn?

Answering these questions will help you understand your precise mowing needs and allow you to narrow down your selection.

Explore our range of Husqvarna mowing machines

Cutting Edge has a large selection of Husqvarna mowing machines, which are well-known for their high quality, performance and longevity. Let’s look at the various possibilities available:

1) Manual mowers – A classic choice that involves physical effort but is eco-friendly and does not require gasoline or electricity. These are perfect for when there is no electricity or when you’re working in an area far away from a power source. Options available:

2) Electric lawn mowers – These are the first choice for most homeowners as they are ideal for smaller lawns that require precision and manoeuvrability. They just require a long extension cord to deliver the power necessary to run the motor. Options available:

3) Battery lawn mowers – Like the electric lawn mowers above, these are ideal for most gardens. However, they run on rechargeable batteries, so are much quieter and do not need extension cables. Options available:

4) Petrol lawn mowers – The third type of lawn mower runs on a small but efficient petrol engine. These are ideal for places where power cuts are prominent, but they do make more noise than the other lawnmowers. Options available:

5) Ride-on mowers – These come in various shapes and sizes, depending on the size of your lawn and the terrain. Ride-ons are ideal for larger lawns because they provide comfort and efficiency. Some have the cutting blades in front of the front wheels, others have the blades in the middle of the two sets of wheels. Our ride-ons are categorised into three classes; Front Mowers, Riders and Garden Tractors. Options available:

6) Robotic mowers – Also called automowers, these are battery-powered mowers that are fully autonomous. They map out your lawn and avoid obstacles, working silently and efficiently all year round. They even charge themselves. Options available:

7) Zero-turn mowers – These mowers are known for their outstanding manoeuvrability, hence the name zero-turn, as they can turn on a dime. This makes them ideal for difficult landscapes but expansive lawns. Zero-turn mowers are the largest of all the options because they are heavy-duty machines that can withstand tough terrain and large areas, such as school fields. Options available:

Each type of Husqvarna mower offers unique features and benefits, catering to different lawn sizes and personal preferences.

Selecting the best mowing machine

Several aspects should be considered when making your decision. Consider the size of your lawn and how quickly you want to finish the job. Think about the power source; do you want gasoline, electric, or battery-powered mowers? Are you worried about noise levels and your environmental impact?

Consider manoeuvrability;  how easy it is to move the mower around obstacles and narrow places, especially if your terrain is complicated. Understand the maintenance demands of each type of mower, such as blade sharpening and regular servicing, and assess your capacity to meet those needs.

Expert advice and maintenance tips

Proper mowing techniques and frequent maintenance are critical for your mower’s longevity. Always set the cutting height of the blades according to the suggested range for your grass type to ensure optimal lawn health.

Be sure to sharpen the mower blades on a regular basis to obtain clean and precise cuts while preventing grass damage. When it comes to routine maintenance, such as cleaning the mower deck, checking air filters and replacing oil and spark plugs, follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

We recommend bringing your mowers to us for annual or more regular services. We also have a nationwide network of authorised service centres that offer convenience. Regular servicing by professionals will greatly extend the lifespan of your mowers and ensure that warranties are upheld.
