The dry grass came in July and for most that meant a break in mowing or at least your mowing time may have seemed to cut back. If you missed the preseason opportunity to have your equipment tuned up July and August are another good opportunity to get the necessary tune-up to keep your equipment running well or fix that problem that was able to wait. Tune-ups are not necessary every year but they do add to the life of your equipment.
Helpful Tip: Blowing your equipment off with forced air helps keep your mower running cooler and free of debris that can clog around belts, get blown into the gas tank and cause other parts to be affected, and keep parts from running efficiently.
