The Best Lawn Mowers for Steep Terrain

When it comes to mowing, steep terrain is one of the most difficult parts of the lawn to mow. Steep terrain can be mowed with about any push mower or riding mower to a certain degree. It can become too dangerous and then the hill has to be finished with a weed eater. This is hard and time-consuming work, and if you make your money mowing lawns this is a bad situation.


 

Current Mowers used for Steep Terrain


Mowing hills, banks and other steep terrain has always been dangerous work, especially for those that mow grass for a living and run into these situations on a regular basis. State governments and huge lawn care companies can afford big tractors with a cutting attachment that can work most steep terrains, but there are still places that cannot be mowed. The next alternative is zero-turn mowers that can safely mow grades up to thirty degrees. The last two alternatives are using push mowers, but that can still be dangerous. Weed eaters can also work, but that is hard, time-consuming work. 


The Best Mower for Steep Terrain


The wave of the future and the best lawn mower for mowing steep terrain is the new remote control lawn mower. A Mississippi-based mower manufacturer has come up with a new remote controlled lawn mower to solve this problem. They come in thirty to sixty inch widths right now, which will be perfect for home use or small landscaping companies. The beauty of this mower is that no one is on the mower, so there is no risk of human injury. It has a state-of-the-art track drive system. Currently these mowers will easily mow at a grade of forty to fifty degrees.
