Lawn Mower engine?

michael30t

Can you mow your yard in the rain without damaging the engine (or anything else) on your lawn mower?
I mow my yard weekly, however it has been raining on my day off for the last two weeks, So today I mowed my lawn between bursts of rain because I was afraid that the rain may somehow mess up my mower...am I just being dumb, or is this something that could happen?
Thanks in advance for any answers

PS. im not sure if this is the right section i should be asking in...it is just what Y!A suggested

Answer
It won't hurt your lawn mower to cut the grass in the rain. I wash mine with a hose and high pressure nozzle and then start it up. Let the heat from the engine dry it out and I've never had a problem. It is not good for the grass to mow it when it is wet. It will make it turn brown. Good luck and Happy mowing.

What's wrong with my lawn mower ?

My push lawn mower kept spitting grass and the grass receiving bag is not even full, what cause this problem ?

Answer
Check and ensure that the hole or chute to your bag is not stopped up.
Also, are you cutting your grass when it is wet? That is a huge problem with grass catchers.
Is there anything under the lawn mower body that may be stopping the grass clippings from going into the grass catcher?
Maybe you are trying to cut grass when it is too high.
Best of Luck,
