INTRODUCTION
The aesthetic value of his environment is as important as food and shelter to the
modern man. In general, grasses are found to survive in a variety of conditions and
thus the need to curtail their growth in order to enhance the beauty of our habitat
environment.
Conventional Grass cutting Machines produces number of unpleasant effects on
human as well as environment.
Running and maintenance cost of traditional grass cutting machines are high.
Looking in to all these problems it was decided to develop a good machine with ease
in operation and with low cost.
A lawn mower (mower, etc.) is a machine utilizing one or more revolving blades to cut a
grass surface to an even height. The height of the cut grass may be fixed by the design of
the mower, but generally is adjustable by the operator, typically by a single master lever,
or by a lever or nut and bolt on each of the machine's wheels. The blades may be powered
by muscle, with wheels mechanically connected to the cutting blades so that when the
mower is pushed forward, the blades spin, or the machine may have a battery-powered or
plug-in electric motor. The most common power source for lawn mowers is a small
(typically one cylinder) internal combustion engine. Smaller mowers often lack any form
of propulsion, requiring human power to move over a surface; "walk-behind" mowers are
self-propelled, requiring a human only to walk behind and guide them. Larger lawn
mowers are usually either self-propelled "walk-behind" types, or more often, are "ride-
on" mowers, equipped so the operator can ride on the mower and control it. A robotic
lawn mower ("lawn-mowing bot", "mowbot", etc.) is designed to operate either entirely
on its own, or less commonly by an operator by remote control.
Two main styles of blades are used in lawn mowers. Lawn mowers employing a single
blade that rotates about a single vertical axis are known as rotary mowers, while those
employing a cutting bar and multiple blade assembly that rotates about a single horizontal
axis are known as cylinder or reel mowers (although in some versions, the cutting bar is
the only blade, and the rotating assembly consists of flat metal pieces which force the
blades of grass against the sharp cutting bar).
There are several types of mowers, each suited to a particular scale and purpose. The
smallest types, unpowered push mowers, are suitable for small residential lawns and
gardens. Electrical or piston engine-powered push-mowers are used for larger residential
lawns (although there is some overlap). Riding mowers, which sometimes resemble small
tractors, are larger than push mowers and are suitable for large lawns, although
commercial riding lawn mowers (such as zero-turn mowers) can be "stand-on" types, and
often bear little resemblance to residential lawn tractors, being designed to mow large
areas at high speed in the shortest time possible. The largest multi-gang (multi-blade)
mowers are mounted on tractors and are designed for large expanses of grass such as golf
courses and municipal parks, although they are ill-suited for complex terrain.
