| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses decision-making with regard to buying new lawn-maintenance equipment. Stresses the "simplicity of principle" as a factor, which explains how easily the product is to maintain and how well it gets the job done. Touches on robust construction, which implies that there only be weight on the product where needed. Also explains that cost in relation to working life, ease of control, and safety to the operator are all major factors to pay attention to when buying a new mower or other maintenance product. |
