Walk-behind mowers have been used for many years in South America, but technology has been slow to evolve. However, in recent years, a number of technical developments have made walk-behind mowers more efficient and effective. The invention of new types of engines has been one of the most significant technological advancements. Historically, walk-behind mowers were powered by small, gasoline-driven engines. These engines were frequently underpowered and difficult to start, as well as loud and polluting. However, in recent years, walk-behind mowers have been powered by smaller, more efficient electric motors. Electric motors are more silent, cleaner, and simpler to start than gasoline engines. They are also more dependable and have a longer lifespan. The introduction of new cutting decks is another technological advancement that has increased the efficiency of walk-behind mowers. Traditionally, walk-behind mowers featured basic, flat cutting decks. These cutting decks were ineffective at cutting grass and frequently left a rough, uneven cut. However, in recent years, there has been a tendency towards the use of increasingly sophisticated, curved cutting decks. These cutting decks are more efficient at cutting grass and produce a smoother, more even cut. There has been an increase in the number of features and extras available for walk-behind mowers. These features and attachments can make walk-behind mowers more user-friendly and efficient. For instance, self-propelled drives, mulching capabilities, and side discharge chutes are now available on some walk-behind mowers. These features can make it easier to mow huge amounts of grass and can also help reduce waste generation.
