Lawn mowers are great for maintaining lawns, but they are not designed to mow all spaces at all.

The multifunctional brush cutter is one of the most versatile lawn care tools you can use. The hand-held brush cutter can not only trim the edge of the yard with a trimming line, but also trim the lawn. They can also install blades instead of production lines to reduce thicker growth:

Tall prairie grass
Reeds and ferns
Bushes and brushes
Young trees and saplings
Since handheld brush cutters can cut larger and more robust plants, using them not only requires more care, but also requires some skills and precautions, and these are all you should keep in mind when using a regular lawn mower .

Brush cutter safety gear
Please be sure to read the product manual before use and follow the safety training standards.
If this advice sounds harsh, it is because the brush cutter is indeed a powerful device. You can see from the number of safety gears required and recommended when using one.
The brush cutter safety gear requires the following safety gear components:
A hard hat
Hearing protection
Eye protection (mesh mask is acceptable, but it can provide more protection when used with safety glasses)
In addition, many workplaces and professional organizations require anyone who uses a brush cutter to wear long pants or shorts. The tibia and calf are within the line and blade range of the brush cutter and should be protected as much as possible.
If most workplaces do not require it, it is also strongly recommended that you use the following safety gear:
Boots (steel toe, non-slip)
Padded gloves (for protection and vibration absorption)
Safety vest for working in public places
After the gears are installed correctly, you can take full advantage of the brush cutter.

Lawn mower blades and accessories
As mentioned above, the brush cutter can use the wire to mow the grass around the edge of the property. However, the real advantage of using a brush cutter (in addition to providing powerful engine power) is the ability to install it on a metal blade.
Different types of brush cutter blades are best for cutting different types of growth:
Blades with teeth less than or equal to 8: grass and weeds
Blade with 9-40 teeth: thick weeds, brushes and bushes
Serrations with serrations over 40 (also called circular saws): brushes, small trees and saplings
The only exception to the Tri Blade is the Tri Blade, also known as the Brush Blade. Its design allows it to cut through bushes and reeds. However, some manufacturers' brush cutter attachments are lightweight and designed for use in lower power engines (approximately 25 cc). Only use blades recommended for your brush cutter.
Whenever you change the blade (and always wear gloves), you should also change the debris guard or deflector. The deflector is a plastic protective cover that can cover the rope or blade closest to the user's leg. For each brush cutter accessory, there is a deflector designed to fit it:
Lawn mower deflector Deflector with cutting blade: used for thread trimmer; automatically trims lines that are pulled too far from the head
Highly visible deflector: for trimming lines and grass blades
Deflector with skirt: used for thread trimming, grass blades and brush blades; provides additional protection against flying debris, but not metal debris
Limiting deflector: used for circular sawing machine; to keep the brush cutter stable against small trees
Each brush cutter blade will also list its tree size. The spindle size is the diameter of the center hole of the blade through which the mounting screw passes. The size of an ordinary arbor is 1 inch; please be sure to consult your brush cutter manual to determine the size of the shank that its blade should have.
After installing the correct accessories for your brush cutter for the job you need to do, the next problem to be solved is how to use the brush cutter blade.
How to use a brush cutter with blades
As long as you pay attention to the technique, using lawn mower blades is easy.
The mower blade is parallel to the ground No matter which style of mower blade is used, please always make the mower blade parallel to the ground when using it. Adjust the wire harness of the cutter so that the lawn mower sits comfortably in this position, with the back of the handle or barrier close to your hips.
Every brush cutter is a straight shaft trimmer. This means that every brush cutter has a blade that rotates counterclockwise. This means that it is best to cut with the left side of the blade, and then move the cutter head of the mower to the left.
If you use the right-hand side of the blade to cut (especially the right front part of the blade), you may suffer a risk called kicking or blade thrust. Kicking is a rapid jump or jump of the lawn mower, almost like hitting an obstacle and moving back.
Perforated area
Opening holes when mowing grass requires less attention than when cutting saplings. The harder and denser the cut object, the greater the risk of kicking it out.
In addition to placing the cutting blade parallel to the ground and cutting denser vegetation with the left side of the blade, there are some tips to remember for each type of vegetation you may face:
Grass and weeds
Bushes and bushes brush
Trees and saplings
Mowing and weeds
Sweeping motion to use the lawn mower to trim the grass and weeds, like using a sickle, sweep the lawn mower back and forth in a long arc.
Hold the cutter so that the cutter head and blade hover just above the ground.
Cutting thick brush
Lifting the lawnmower to clear thick bushes requires cutting off the thick bushes with a lawnmower. Starting from the bottom of the plant may not be the easiest option.
Instead, first raise the head of the brush cutter to the same height as the waist and make the blade parallel to the ground. Slowly lower the blade head onto the brush until the blade is just above the ground.
Do not raise the blade above waist height.
Felling small trees and saplings
Use a lawn mower to cut trees. A lawn mower with a circular saw blade is most suitable for trees with a trunk diameter of less than 2 inches. Larger trees should be felled with a chain saw.

Hold the lawn mower and place the blade 2-8 inches above the ground. Start the cutter, and then place the left side of the blade against the right side of the tree.

Let the left side of the limit stop deflector rest against the tree to help fix the lawn mower in place.

Keep the cutter steady until it passes through the trunk of the tree.

The versatility of the lawn mower
The brush cutter is a time-tested tool for professionals in landscaping and habitat restoration. Their versatility makes them useful even when cleaning and maintaining the most challenging spaces.

However, through attention and attention to details, both homeowners and professionals can clear the way for a tidy and healthy outdoor property.
