What do mulching blades look like




















The curved design of a mulching blade does not provide the same type of lift and discharge power as standard blades. Mulching blades are an excellent choice for use on lawns that receive a mowing every three to four days. Using mulching blades on overgrown grass can result in clogging under the deck and piles of grass on the cut lawn.

Mulching is also an environmentally friendly way to deal with grass clippings. Mulched grass clipping and leaves act as a natural fertilizer. Plants like grass and trees take up nutrients from the soil and store them in their leaves. Mulching this organic material will return the valuable nutrients back to the soil that the plants can use again. Mower blade terminology can be a little confusing.

Local colloquialisms and engineering terminology such as "3-in-1" or "high-lift" have also contributed to this confusion. Essentially there are only TWO basic styles of mowing blades used or approved for use on our current products:. As with most all-purpose tools, there is some give and take as opposed to using a tool designed for a more specific purpose. The type of blade installed on a new mower is a decision the retailer makes for each model of mower, based on the expected needs of most customers.

As with any machine part, choose your mulching mower blade by selecting the right model for your John Deere mower. The right blade fit is an essential component in getting a good lawn cut. Each blade is compatible with mowers with a certain model number. Check your model number either on the mower itself or in the manual that came with it, and ensure that the blade you get is compatible.

Though you can use a mulching blade in wet weather, your lawn will look better if you mow while the weather is dry. John Deere mulching mower blades are made with carbon and boron, so they shouldn't be too affected by running over wet ground. When you level your deck or service your mower, check your blades to make sure they're sharp, clean and undamaged.
