Hand Mower Parts

People that have a small lawn will benefit from using hand lawn mowers. The hand lawn mower was popular before the gas lawn mower.  No gas is needed to run the hand lawn mower, so there are no fumes that will pollute the environment. The hand lawn mower is safer for the environment. 

• The handle of the hand lawn mower has grips attached. The grips cushion your hands as you cut the grass with the hand lawn mower.  The handle has some sort of solid bar across the top with the grips on either side of the bar. The handle runs down to the wheels of the hand lawn mower.


• The blade assembly of the hand lawn mower is mounted in a spiral shape.  Pushing the hand lawn mower makes the blades rotate and cut the grass.  The hand lawn mower will cut faster and easier if the hand lawn mower has more blades.


• Reel assembly interacts with the wheels and rotates the blades.  The gear drive is moved by pushing the hand lawn mower as the blades turns. The wider the width of the reel will allow more grass to be cut at one time. The reel widths are usually from 14 to 18 inches wide.


• The roller assembly is positioned at the back of the hand lawn mower and rolls along the ground.  The roller assembly holds the blade assembly at a uniformed distance from the grass. It keeps the hand lawn mower at the proper cutting height. The cutting height can be adjusted.
