DIY Lawn Care Tip: Storing Your Lawn Care Tools for Winter

OK, if you’ve finished with the mower and blower for the fall, congratulations! Before you send them to their well-deserved season’s rest, do a little maintenance. For the mower, clean the blades and the rotary mechanism. Oil if necessary. Drain the gas, or gas-and-oil mixture to avoid it turning to gunk.  Ideally, there’s not much to drain because you’ve used nearly all of it on the last mowing.  You’ll start fresh next season. Check the blade and note if it’s edges are dinged or jagged. It may need sharpening or replacement next season. Check and clean the air filters and spark plugs if applicable. Clean any grass and debris from the blower; and if it runs on gas or gas/oil, drain it too. If you have battery powered machines (my mower runs on a heavy-duty battery), make sure to take the batteries out and store them properly. Check your manual for instructions on seasonal/long term battery storage. Our tools help us to keep the lawn looking fresh and clean cut. You gotta take good care of the tools.
