Types of Lawn Mowers Decks are:
There are two types of Lawn Mowers named as reel mowers and rotary mowers. Reel lawn mowers use blades to cut the grass that revolve on a cylinder called as reel. When the reel mower is
pushed forward, either by muscle or by engine power, the reel moves and the rotating blades come in sliding contact with the stationary bar that cuts the grass. This bar is known as the bed-knife. This mower can be adjusted to various cutting heights.
Rotary mowers use a flat, horizontal, blade that turns at the speed of the engine. The engine shaft protrudes through the deck where the blade is bolted to the underside. The underside acts as a vacuum chamber that lifts up the grass that gives it a
better cut.
Reel Lawn Mowers versus Rotary Lawn Mowers:
Reel Lawn mowers can cut lawns shorter than Rotary Lawn mowers because of their shearing action hence they are used on golf courses. This happens due to the sheering action
of the reel that cuts the grass evenly. They also leave finer grass clippings than ordinary rotary mowers. Rotary lawn mowers are easier to use on long grass but the effect is not so good as reel lawn mowers.
