Question

What is a self-propelled lawn mower? It it different from a regular gas-powered walk-behind style?

Answer 1

the mower goes forward on its own as long as u hold up on the handle......u dont have to push it.......just like the walk behind type....

Answer 2

It just continuosly moves forward very slowly and you just have to walk behind it and direct it in the correct direction.

Answer 3

Self propelled mowers either have a front wheel drive "drive wheel', or a rear wheel drive, which is usually a belt, or a hydrostatic fluid enclosed in a casing (Honda).  Front wheel drives are easier to repair at home, whereas rear wheel drives Must go to a repair shop~ FWD "jump" when 1st engaged, ~ RWD are smoother operating,  but are a pain if you let the bag get too full~ Regular gas mowers have the best exercise~ Push type ~ ;>)
