Equipment for mowing and lawn care. Petrol trimmers Garden shears

16.02.2024

A gasoline trimmer (gasoline trimmer or brush cutter) is a tool that makes it easier to cut grass in private suburban areas, municipal and rural areas, parks and gardens. The design and method of operation of this mechanism are as follows: a gasoline engine transmits rotation to a long rod located inside a metal shaft, then to a gearbox and a cutting device (disc, or trimmer attachment with fishing line). The operator holds the device by the handles, moving the cutting element from side to side parallel to the ground.

Advantages of petrol mowers over lawn mowers

Some of us have probably had to think about what is better to buy for our farm: a manual trimmer or a wheeled lawn mower. Let's look at the main advantages of braids so that you can draw conclusions about how useful they will be to you:

Maneuverability. The petrol trimmer can cut grass in any places, including those where a conventional lawn mower cannot cope with the task - around trees or between them, close to various objects (shrubs, fences, walls, etc.)
Steep slopes. A wheeled machine runs the risk of overturning, but a brush cutter can easily cope with work on surfaces with a large slope.
Difficult terrain. The abundance of uneven surfaces is a big hindrance for a conventional lawn mower, but a gas mower is not afraid of such difficulties.
High grass. A gasoline trimmer is an excellent option for trimming vegetation in unkempt areas.
Shrubs. Powerful brush cutters, equipped with a metal disc with fine teeth, turn into a saw that can cut not only small bushes, but also small-diameter trees, as well as trim branches.

As you can see, there are a lot of factors that can influence your choice in favor of a trimmer. But we cannot help but mention the disadvantages: using a manual gas-powered scythe it is extremely difficult to create a beautiful, even, neatly trimmed lawn. If this is your goal, it is better to get a wheeled unit.

Petrol trimmer VS electric trimmer

The question of what is better to buy – a gas trimmer or an electric one – arises quite often among buyers. You can get the answer to this by assessing the advantages of lawn mowers compared to electric motor models:

Autonomy, independence from electricity. Work anywhere.
No wires to get tangled or in the way. No extension cords or risk of damaging them.
Ability to work long hours. Walk-behind mowers need breaks in operation much less often than electric models, with which you need to be careful to avoid overheating.
High performance. Petrol trimmers can withstand heavy loads, so there is no other alternative for professional and intensive private use.
High reliability. A gasoline unit, as a rule, has a longer service life.
Ability to cut bushes and trees. The power of some lawn mowers is quite sufficient not only for cutting grass, but also for more serious tasks.

Of course, gas powered tools have some disadvantages, they definitely need to be mentioned. The first is cost. The price of a gasoline trimmer depends on many factors, but most of all - on power, type and level of tool, quality of materials and production. A model for private use can be very close in cost to electric scythes. And for a powerful professional tool you can pay up to several tens of thousands of rubles. The second is the need for maintenance. This disadvantage is a continuation of such advantages as durability and wear resistance, since it extends the life of the tool. The third is the need to handle flammable flammable liquids: gasoline, oil. The fourth is a slightly more complex startup procedure compared to electric models.

Another disadvantage is usually called heavy weight. We can argue with this: modern Japanese-made brush cutters are so lightweight that you will not feel any difference with many electric models (particularly OHV units).

Varieties of gasoline trimmers in our store

Our assortment includes lightweight, innovative premium Japanese lawn mowers of the following types:

By shaft type: straight or collapsible. Only a trimmer for household use can be dismountable. This is convenient as it allows you to transport the scythe in the trunk of your car. However, the more joints, the less reliable such a connection.
Handle shape: T-shaped or Q-shaped. The first type - the handles are spaced apart, like a bicycle handlebar, only one side is slightly shorter than the other for a comfortable grip. This is convenient when working in large open spaces and when cutting bushes and trees. The handle in the form of a loop with a “tail” (Q) provides a greater degree of maneuverability, with it it is more convenient to move between trees or mow on slopes.
By class: professional or hobby. Models for professionals are productive and powerful, quite weighty, but capable of daily long-term loads. The tool for private use is inexpensive, very light, but it is not intended for difficult work.
Intended use: for grass only, or for grass and shrubs. This is determined not only by the package (any cutting device can be purchased not only together with the device, but also separately) - it depends on the technical characteristics, in particular, power.

You can buy a gas trimmer (gasoline trimmer) in our online store of any type: for a summer residence and professional, with a fishing line and disk, for grass and shrubs. We have a unique Caiman 5+ guarantee. In addition, you can purchase all the necessary consumables and accessories and take advantage of a full range of services: delivery or pickup, any form of payment, warranty and post-warranty service.

Need lawn care equipment? At Garden Mechanisms you can purchase many specialized machines for cutting grass and other work.

What care does your lawn need?

Despite the fact that a lawn is not flowering plants or fruit and berry plantings that require fertilizer and other special conditions, it also needs care, otherwise, instead of a neat lawn in front of the house, there will be overgrown, crumpled or even withered and yellowed grass.

There are 3 mandatory care measures:

haircut (mowing),
aeration,
scarification.

For each of these procedures, there are several types of equipment that significantly simplify the care process and save time.

Grass cutting equipment

This group of devices is the most extensive, since mowing the lawn is the most important event, without which it is simply impossible to achieve a neat appearance. And since it is recommended to do a haircut weekly, for this it is better to arm yourself with the following equipment:

trimmer: electric or gasoline (petrol mower);
lawn mower: mechanical, electric, battery, gasoline;
rider or garden tractor;
lawn scissors - for finishing the edges along the borders.

Of the entire list, the trimmer (aka lawn mower) is the most accessible. In addition, it is quite versatile and can easily cope even with tall grass, but it is not very suitable for lawn care directly - it does not allow you to fix the mowing height, and without proper skill it will leave unsightly stripes.

A lawn mower is originally a lawn equipment, so it is best suited for landscaping flat areas and large areas. Moreover, the choice of units (petrol, electric, battery, self-propelled, non-self-propelled, mechanical) is extremely wide.

The rider is a self-propelled gasoline lawn mower equipped with a seat and steering wheel. They are optimal for processing large areas.

Lawn tractors are similar to ride-on tractors, but offer even more power and allow you to attach additional attachments for other jobs, such as a cart or a rotary snow blower. In fact, this is not just a lawn mower, but a multi-functional machine for working all year round.

There is also a separate group of devices designed specifically for mowing tall grass, removing weeds and unwanted bushes, or making hay.

Aeration and scarification technology

Aeration is the removal of undergrowth - a layer of dead, dry plants left over from previous seasons, and moss by "combing" them out of a fresh lawn.

Scarification is the perforation of the top layer of soil in order to improve access to oxygen and drain water from the site.

The lawn mower is not designed to carry out these procedures, so they are carried out using special equipment - aerators and verticutters (scarifiers), respectively. Like grass cutting equipment, they can be gasoline or electric. There are also universal models designed to perform both jobs.
