Makita lawn mower FAQs
What's the cutting width on Makita mowers?
These mowers typically offer cutting widths from 330mm up to 530mm depending on the model. The smaller 330mm models work well for compact yards and tight spaces, while the larger 460-530mm decks cover more ground with each pass. Choose your cutting width based on your lawn size and any obstacles like garden beds or trees you need to navigate around.
How long do Makita battery mowers run?
Battery runtime depends on your battery capacity and grass conditions, but you can expect around 20-40 minutes of cutting time with a standard 5.0Ah battery. Thicker grass and higher cutting speeds will drain the battery faster. The beauty of the LXT system is you can swap in fresh batteries to keep working, or run two batteries for extended runtime on larger properties.
Are Makita petrol mowers easy to start?
Yes, these petrol mowers feature reliable starting systems designed for consistent performance. Most models include primer bulbs and choke controls that make cold starts straightforward. Regular maintenance like fresh fuel, clean air filters, and seasonal tune-ups will keep your mower starting easily year after year.
What cutting heights can I set on these mowers?
Most models offer multiple cutting height positions, typically ranging from around 20mm up to 75mm. This gives you flexibility to maintain different grass types and seasonal conditions. Lower settings work well for fine turf, while higher cuts help during dry periods or when dealing with coarser grass varieties.
