Article: Depending on the type of your lawnmower, you will need to stock different parts in your house. It may be possible to get these parts off the shelf from your friendly neighborhood dealer. But to ensure continued availability you need to have these parts with you, where you can get it easily. You will be able to save a Saturday, when you normally mow the lawn. These parts are not costly and one will always be able to afford the investment in the lawnmower parts.

Parts For Gas Engine lawnmower

For your gas engine lawnmower you need to stock larger number of parts and consumable than the electric or battery operated lawnmower. This is so because, the lawnmower has many numbers of parts and when upgrading their products the companies do not bother to make spares for the earlier products. In such cases, you may have to on a hunting expedition to get these parts. It is better to stock them instead of the expeditions. The parts that you can store are

1. Spark Plugs: Spark plugs of lawnmowers are different from the plugs of your car and are not quickly available and are the first thing to go wrong. So have a plug handy.

2. Belts: Just as the spark plugs, belts have a habit of breaking down, when required most. (May be Murphy's laws is applicable here too). Belts are easy to change and you need not stop you lawn maintenance just because the belt has broken down at 7 o'clock in morning when no shop is open and your lawn needs maintenance as your guests are coming by 10 o'clock

3. Blades, Mulching Kits, Shafts, Adapters & Accessories: You can also stock them for continued use of your lawnmower

4. Make a stock of hardware necessary for fixing small problems with lawn mowers and small engines.

5. Throttle and choke cables, battery lead etc. should also be stocked.

Parts For Electric Lawnmowers

Electric lawnmowers require less number of parts than the gas engine counterpart. The following parts may be maintained for electric lawnmowers

1. Fuses and fuse holder: These are the easiest and cheapest parts to store. You may store them along with other electrical items.

2. Cables and cable winder spares: The mess after the cable winder breaks down should be seen to be believed. A cable winder will not accept any joint in cable and cable if it gets damaged, should be replaced or shortened

3. Switches tools and connectors are also parts to be stocked.

Parts For Battery Lawnmower

Such lawnmowers require least parts to be stocked. You may stock only the switches and battery leads etc.

Therefore, if you stock above parts your lawnmower will serve you for long periods.
