I bought a Sears Craftsman riding mower this past summer. I have been working a lot in the last 2 weeks, so I havent really had time to do whatever I am supposed to do to make it run next spring after sitting in the cold garage all winter. What should I do to my lawn mower to store it for the winter months and make it start again in the spring?
Remove battery store in warm place above freezing charge it once every 8 weeks, put in a gas treatment for storage like sta-bil don't drain gas that may dry gaskets and corrode carborator parts and/or rust tank make sure to run 15 min to get treated fuel into carborator bowl. scrape dryed grass from under mower deck and spray with oil WD-40

I tried a new battery.Still nothing. It isn't turning over at all. I really know nothing about small engines. could it be the spark plug? Any help other than telling me to buy another riding lawn mower would be appreciated. Thank you.
Yes, it could be the spark plug. It's not the battery, since you just replaced that. You also might want to check your wiring connections: Sometimes tightening something that's loose will do the trick.
Good luck!
I have a Craftsman TS1000 riding lawn mower and my son ran over a large rock that damaged one of the two blades. After replacing the damaged blade, the lawn mower cuts unevenly. I put the lawn mower on a level surface and can see that the mower deck is uneven, but I don't know how to adjust it. Can you help me?
There are adjusters on each side of the deck. Put the mower on a level surface and you can screw/unscrew them to level the deck. Also, make sure the air pressure in the tires are correct. That's one of those overlooked problems that can cause an uneven cut.
Can you recommend a brand and model of a riding lawn mower that is safe, dependable and has a smooth ride. We have a large yard (2 acres) and my husband has had a back injury.
We have a tractor but need a riding lawn mower to cut grass around the house. Which tractor will hold up with heavy use and be comfortable to operate.
According to the first link below, the John Deere X304 is the best lawn tractor overall.
Second link is price...seems pretty typical though this particular model isn't at Lowe's. Didn't look at Home Depot.
We got an old, second hand Craftsman from a customer. That rider was used on MANY big lawns while hubby had his lawn maintenance business. It was used for 5-6 years before it quit. I wish it was still working!
Speaking only for myself, I'd look into a Craftsman. I'm not fond of Sears, but I loved riding it and miss her sorely as we now have 3 acres!
Havent decided yet on what to buy.A regular riding lawn mower or a zero turn lawn mower.I could go either way and i have thought of some advantages and disadvantages of both but what do you think???
What are the pros and cons of both style lawn mowers?If you got an opinion,lets hear it!!!
My grandfather is a Snapper fan for as long as I can remember. He bought a blue lawnmower about a year ago that turned on a dime. After 1 summer he decided to get rid of it. He said it wasn't as pretty of a cut as the Snapper. He said it bounces to much.

Commercial walk behind commercial lawn mower are those that you walk behind rather than riding. In order from them to chop the grass they’re going to need to be pushed through the grass. Sit on mowers are sometimes much costlier than walk behind mowers. Unless you are regularly mowing a space of more than one acre it is not really worth the extra money to buy a riding mower. Walk behind mowers come in numerous different types including push reel, electric, cordless, gas, and commercial.
Commercial walk behind mowers will have a wider cut and a massive capacity thick roll formed catcher which is made with a robust steel mesh. They are generally strong enough to handle stones and include special grip handles for comfort and ease when you’re lifting and emptying the catcher. The majority of the time commercial walk behind mowers will fold for ease of storage and transport.
