With the plentiful amount of sunshine and rain that comes with spring, your grass will start shooting up, so it’s important to make sure your lawn mower is up to speed. Consulting with a power tools specialist will help you make the proper adjustments to achieve the best performance. Located in Boscobel, WI, Krogen's Do It Best has provided locals with useful appliances and other goods since 1933. If you’re in need of kitchen accessories, power tools, or a wide assortment of other supplies, you’ll always be able to find what you’re looking for.

After the long layoff of the colder months, it’s good practice to give your lawn mower a maintenance check to make sure it can handle the spring grass. Here are three tips to encourage the most effective performance:

• Change the Filter: After enough time passes, your filter will become stuffed with detritus like dirt and dust. Neglecting to replace the filter will make your lawn mower strain to produce the same power, declining its usability while also using up more fuel. Changing the filter during the beginning of spring will put your mower at the peak of its powers. 
• Assess the Blade: With enough usage, blades can become dull. If you notice your grass isn’t being fully sliced, it would be wise to sharpen the blade or speak to the Krogen's Do It Best team about a replacement.
• Swap Out the Oil: At the heart of your lawn mower is its engine. To extend the engine’s lifespan as long as possible, you’ll want to keep it lubricated with fresh oil. Whatever oil is left from the mower’s last go around has almost certainly turned to sludge by spring, so it’s key to fill up the tank with new liquid.
