Lawn Tractors-What You Should Know

By Danny Forge

Even the most ordinary looking lawn tractor has many advanced accessories. They work in tandem with the lawn tractor when mowing the yard. There are the chances the lawn tractor accessories will require replacement since they are used frequently. M

Some people know the parts well as others are not so familiar with the parts. In either case, it is important to know about the parts and the accessories used on the lawn tractor. Here are several parts and accessories commonly used on the lawn tractors.

One of the parts a person needs to know included the dethatchers. These are the parts that have the blade arrangements removing the thatches of grass. They are designed to row over the lawn.

As they roll, the blades keep moving cutting off the grass in the yard. Different types of blades are available and the different kind of blade purchased is at the preference of the individual. Some lawn tractors have detachable dethatchers that are used as a push mover separately.

Rakes are another part of the lawn tractor used with the dethatchers. They perform the job of raking the difficult thatches of grass making moving the grass easier for the dethatcher. Some lawn tractors are available without the rakes yet using the raking system with the dethatcher makes the moving process easier.

Tillers are great attachments for the lawn tractor especially for the gardener. The tiller is used to loosen the hard surface of the soil creating an easier soil for planting the seeds and other garden items. The tiller aerates the ground and allows the richer organic layer of soil underneath moved to the surface creating a better soil for the plants of the garden. The tillers are available as attachable units to the tractor or as separate units.

Backhoes are similar to hoes, which are then attached to the lawn tractor. They offer the ability to dig holes anywhere in the yard. There are adjustments to the backhoes as accessories to gauge the depth of the holes dug. The accessories help with aligning the holes to the perfect depth and design required for the holes dug.

There are other accessories available for the lawn tractor in addition to these important accessories and parts. The additional accessories include buckets, bush hogs, drillers, and harrows. Most of these accessories are available in hardware stores and stores on the internet. - 31813
