It is more convenient to mow green vegetation on large lawns and lawns with a lawn mower. It’s good when such equipment is self-propelled. You don’t have to carry it around the entire area, but you just need to steer it around corners. Among the many models, the Champion petrol lawn mower is in demand among buyers, which we will now consider.
Positive and negative features of Champion mowers
The Champion lawn mower is manufactured in a Chinese-American enterprise. The equipment is assembled in Taiwan. The quality of the unit can be judged by its spare parts. Many components are produced by the famous Husqvarna brand. Champion gasoline lawn mowers are equipped with a four-stroke engine. All models are characterized by fast operation, low weight, and a large wheel radius. The mowers move easily on flat areas and narrow paths. Most of the Champion gasoline models are self-propelled vehicles, with which a person feels a minimum of fatigue after work.
Let's look at the advantages of the Champion petrol self-propelled mower:
- High cross-country ability is due to a powerful and durable engine, as well as a successful wheelbase.A big plus of gasoline lawn mowers is mobility and good maneuverability.
- The wheels have bearings. This allows the machine to move easily across the lawn.
- Multi-stage cutting adjustment is very convenient when you need to mow the grass at different heights.
- Folding handles can be installed in two positions, which increases the comfort of operating the mower.
- The primer ensures instant engine starting.
- The plastic grass catcher is easy to clean and washable.
Among the disadvantages, it is worth noting the difficult movement on uneven terrain. Champion lawnmowers don't like bumps. In such areas, along with the grass, they seize the soil with a knife. As for the air filter, it also requires improvement, since the outlet is inconveniently located at the bottom. The fact that the lawn mower wheels have bearings is undoubtedly a big plus, but the discs themselves are plastic, not rubber. This is already a huge minus. Discs tend to burst from impact, and when cornering, the plastic tread causes the wheels to slip.
Features of the design and operation of Champion gasoline mowers
Traditionally, the design of all gasoline lawn mowers is the same. The Champion has a durable metal frame. It rests on a plastic wheelset. The wheel diameter of each model is different. The mower body is made of plastic and is attached to the frame on top. A four-stroke single-cylinder engine with forced air cooling is installed at the front. The engine starts from a manual starter.
Self-propelled models are characterized by rear-wheel drive.The machine moves confidently across the terrain without any additional operator effort. The handle is made of a metal pipe. A polyurethane layer is applied on top. The curved shape of the handle increases the ease of control of the mower. Below, under the housing, a knife is mounted on the motor shaft. The sharp sharpening of the edge allows the blade to cut the grass as smoothly as possible.
During mowing, vegetation, along with small debris, is driven into the grass catcher by the air flow. Side discharge of grass is possible. For this purpose, the manufacturer has provided an outlet chute on the right. When mulching, the vegetation is subjected to repeated shredding. The cutting height is adjusted using a lever. It is located above the wheels.
