Get the most out of your mower and garden tractor
Satisfying mower performance depends on, among other things, the quality of the cutting blade. In a previous article, we wrote about how to prepare it to work with your mower again, but you should also be prepared for the situation where it stops being used and has to be replaced.
Choosing the right cutter blades for your mower ensures, above all, the trouble-free operation of the device. For them, this means eliminating the risk of serious lawn mower damage and unnecessary investment in accessories that can’t be fitted to their model machine. You also have to maintain your lawn mower. Almost all garden work in the spring can be done with this cultivator, for example, the Park 340 MX model is used not only for mowing the lawn, but also for scarifying the lawn or fertilizing the soil. But even such advanced devices will fail if you do not take care of the elements that are responsible for their proper functioning.
If you have a Stiga lawnmower or tractor, you don’t have to waste your precious time looking for the right cutting blades. You just have to check the list in our store and that’s it! That means you are always assured of the highest quality and the perfect accessory for your particular machine.
What else do you need to keep in mind? Seasonal oil changes are extremely important because they not only extend the life of the engine of the machine in operation, but also significantly reduce current fuel consumption. And with the specially adapted Stiga service kits, it’s easy to change the oil in a lawn mower or a more modern garden tractor yourself.
You can also change the cutting unit of a lawnmower quickly and safely. However, in this case, you will need special parts with which you can steadily install the blade in the device. Without it, it is impossible to use the mower safely, which can lead to serious accidents during operation. This is why we have made sure that Stiga mowers are also fitted with accessories to ensure that they are comfortable to use. This protects you from dangerous situations and thereby significantly increases your safety when working with our machines.
If you have any doubts about replacing the above-mentioned mower components, you can return your mower to the nearest service center at any time. Stig service.
Safe working with mowers and trimmers
Accurately trimmed hedges and neatly trimmed bushes beautify your garden. To take care of them properly requires lightweight and very maneuverable equipment: mowers and pruning shears.
When working with these devices, you are primarily exposed to loud noise and the risk of injury from grass clippings with sharp edges quickly flying around. You should therefore carefully choose protective clothing that allows you to work safely and comfortably.
Protection from dust clouds is a priority. Dirt particles not only greatly interfere with breathing, but also ruin your eyesight, as you know very well if you’ve used a trimmer at least once and failed to properly protect your face and exposed body parts. Safe operation of this type of equipment is ensured by a specialist in wishbone and face protection. In addition, equipped with a sturdy metal grill, it will also protect you from dangerous blows from lumps of earth that can “fly” out from under the cutting blade at the most unexpected moment.
For protection against excessive noise, special headphones are provided. The high-quality insulating material perfectly drowns out the noise of the trimmer. On the other hand, the thick synthetic foam ensures maximum comfort even after hours of gardening.
Push-and-forward technology, such as in the SB 420 D, is an additional safety feature that improves mower performance. This allows the device’s leash to slip out only after the head has been lightly pressed to the ground. It’s also worth investing in professional cutting blades. Adapted to each model, STIGA hedge trimmer blades do a good job not only of precisely cutting through thickets, but also shrubs and even small trees. The cutting blades can also be used to remove unwanted weeds effectively from the surface of the lawn – especially in places that are difficult to reach or completely out of reach of the lawnmower.
Thanks to the Service Kits, you can easily prepare your lawnmower for another season of intensive gardening!
With STIGA accessories, you will improve the current performance of your equipment and protect your own health and life from dangerous accidents that can endanger you during intensive garden work.
