Every owner of a private or country house is well aware of the problem associated with lush vegetation on the site. It nullifies all attempts to bring the territory into proper condition. Ignoring the problem will soon lead to the fact that moving through the thickets will become quite problematic, and the area will lose its attractiveness. There are several methods of controlling vegetation. Mowing the grass and mowing the lawn with hand tools will not impact your financial well-being so much, but it will take a lot of time. As an alternative, partial mechanization of the process is allowed. It's about purchasing the proper equipment, a trimmer, or a lawn mower. Using them will significantly reduce time costs and even bring pleasure. Gasoline models require the use of special oil; we will discuss the best below.

About the lawn mower

Garden equipment used to care for lawns, park areas and garden plots. It reduces the time required to mow the grass and give the area a well-groomed appearance. For proper operation, it must be maintained and periodically scheduled repair work must be carried out. This includes changing your engine oil regularly.

Depending on the configuration, the internal combustion engine is available in 2-stroke or four-stroke types.

Grass trimming is carried out with installed knives. They move due to the energy received from the engine. When gasoline detonates, gases are formed, which expand and transmit the impulse further. Compression occurs under piston pressure.

For normal operation of the mating parts, clearances must be maintained. Gradual wear of the mechanism increases them. This negatively affects the functioning of the system. Ignoring the problem will lead to complete failure of the nodes.

Engine oil ensures the smooth functioning of the engine and important systems and components in the lawn mower. It covers the surface with a thin film, which significantly reduces wear and minimizes the risk of scuffing.

It is important to remember that it is impossible to completely eliminate the negative effects of friction. The use of high quality fuels and lubricants reduces the impact and extends the service life.

Although the four-stroke engines in a car and a lawn mower are similar, they have a number of significant differences. This is largely dictated by the need to reduce the cost of the device for the consumer, since it is aimed at mass use. The oil pump and supply system were excluded from the system. The solution increased the technical requirements for viscosity.

The oil is located in the crankcase. From there it is supplied to the internal combustion engine elements by the crankshaft. The feature dictates certain requirements:

  • the viscosity is sufficient to form and retain an oil film;
  • high-quality anti-foam additives;
  • not thick consistency.

A lawn mower's engine is subject to less stress than a car's engine. This is due to the fact that the work is carried out in the warm season. Cold start has a negative impact on the service life and requires appropriate qualities from the lubricant.

Air cooling will require attention from the owner of garden equipment. Because in summer it can overheat. They are subject to higher temperatures than their liquid-cooled counterparts.

The first oil change is carried out after 5 hours of operation. During the specified period, the engine is run in and the elements are ground in. The updated liquid will effectively cope with the task throughout the season. Subsequent operations are carried out in accordance with the established regulations. If desired, it is allowed to drain at the end of the summer season and fill in a new one next year.

those. Are the proportions indicated on the canister for break-in and after?

any for 2-stroke engines or one for which you don’t mind the money

z.y. I don’t like these 2-stroke bikes: if you overfill oil, it smokes, if you don’t top it up, you can ruin the engine

About trimmers

Easy to maintain and use devices used for beautifying parks, gardens and household plots. Indispensable when caring for large areas. There are 2 types on the market: electric and gasoline. The latter have gained high popularity. This is largely due to its autonomy and long service life.

The vast majority of trimmers are equipped with a two-stroke engine; four-stroke ones are less common. The main difference is the method of combining fuel with oil. In the first case, it is added directly to gasoline, and in the second it is poured into a separate special container.

The trimmer successfully competes with other garden equipment that perform similar tasks due to a number of functional differences.

  1. Mobility. Compact dimensions and light weight allow you to carry the device to any distance and work with it in hard-to-reach places.
  2. Versatility. Replacing working units and elements does not cause problems and is even available during operation.
  3. Simplicity. The tool does not require frequent additional adjustments.

Consumption rates for fuels and lubricants

Fuel consumption for gasoline trimmers depends on:

  • engine power;
  • engine volume;
  • state of the power unit;
  • grass characteristics;
  • operator skills.

Therefore, fuel consumption is individual for each engine, and also changes in different situations.

This parameter is measured in various units, the most popular of which are:

  • g/kWh (grams per kilowatt-hour of engine power);
  • l/hp h (liters per horsepower per hour);
  • liters per square meter or hundred square meters (100 m2).

Manufacturers do not always indicate the actual fuel consumption of this or that trimmer, so the owner of such a device will have to find out this parameter experimentally. Usually this parameter fits into 0.3–2 liters per hundred square meters .

Oil consumption for two-stroke engines is always tied to the amount of fuel and corresponds to the fuel mixture ratio set by the lubricant manufacturer.

The amount of oil for a four-stroke engine is always the same, because it is changed once a season.

What tasks does it perform?

The lubricant contains residual carbohydrates and various additives that modify the quality of the resulting product. It mitigates the negative effects that friction causes. Enveloping parts with a thin film, it smooths out uneven movements and extends service life. Garden equipment will not become a source of problems, provided that oils are used that are identical in their physical and chemical qualities to the type of engine.

An attempt to save money can lead to further failure and costly repairs. In addition to lubrication, it is designed to perform the following functions:

  • prevent rapid wear of parts subject to intense friction;
  • minimize the formation of smoke and exhaust gases;
  • reduce the temperature of heated parts;
  • prevent the formation of soot and other deposits, keep them in suspension;
  • maintain certain viscosity parameters, regardless of temperature;
  • have anti-corrosion qualities;
  • mixes well with gasoline (relevant for 2T);
  • prevent premature combustion.

We understand the choice of gasoline for the AI-92 or AI-95 lawn mower

There are so many people, so many opinions, which applies not only to the choice of trimmer oil, but also gasoline. Likewise, in order not to make a mistake with the choice, it is recommended to use the brand of gasoline recommended by the manufacturer (indicated in the manual for the tool). However, not everything is so simple here, since at each gas station the brands of gasoline are only named the same, but have completely different compositions. You need to figure it out and come to a common conclusion about which brand is best to pour gasoline into a two-stroke engine for your trimmer.

Manufacturers recommend using A-92 gasoline for their equipment, and some models require the use of A-95 grade, which does not contain ethyl alcohol. It is not recommended to use gasoline grade AI-90 or lower, as they will lead to rapid wear of engine parts. When buying gasoline of one brand, you cannot be 100% sure that it corresponds to reality. The result is the following picture:

  1. The manufacturer recommends pouring fuel into the AI-92 trimmer
  2. The summer resident uses only gasoline of this brand, but buys it at gas stations where the price is lower or where he has to
  3. This negatively affects the internal parts of the engine, since at one gas station it is really high-quality AI-92 gasoline, and at the second - at best, if it is AI-80 and not AI-76

As a result, the motor suffers, and after a couple of years of using the new trimmer, it becomes necessary to overhaul it. To avoid having to analyze the quality of fuel or buy only expensive gasoline, it is recommended to refuel at only one gas station. At gas stations, gasoline is poured only into metal cans, not plastic.

There are manufacturers that produce special purified fuel for two-stroke engines. If you choose this option, then you will not need to choose the best gas station, brand of gasoline and control its shelf life.

Conclusion on choosing gasoline for a trimmer!

The trimmer must be filled with gasoline of the brand recommended by the manufacturer. If you fill the trimmer tank with A-95 gasoline, instead of A-92 (which is recommended by the manufacturer), the engine will heat up faster and become unstable. It is also better to choose A-92 Ecto gasoline, which has improved characteristics in terms of environmental friendliness.

What is the difference between 2T and 4T?

The motors have a similar principle of operation. The main difference is the number of movements required by the piston to complete the working stroke. This kind of action is called tact. The crankshaft makes a full revolution in 2 strokes. The power stroke of the piston is the movement that converts gases into energy obtained from fuel combustion into useful engine work (rotation).

In addition, the differences lie in technical and consumer characteristics. The following can be distinguished

  1. 2T received greater specific and liter power.
  2. 4T is more economical (the difference is around 20 - 30%). The exhaust contains fewer toxic substances.
  3. Supply of fuel mixed with atmospheric air inside the cylinder and exhaust gases. For 4T, a gas distribution mechanism is provided. 2T does not have it.
  4. 4Ts make less noise.
  5. The 2T design is much simpler than modern analogues.
  6. The modified lubrication system and reduced crankshaft rotation speed had a positive effect on the service life of 4T units.
  7. 2T is gaining momentum faster.
  8. The 2T model is easy to maintain and repair.
  9. Implementation of mixing oil with fuel.

Lubricate the trimmer video - tips from the online store Mow Scythe

We looked at what needs to be lubricated and how to do it in detail. More detailed work can be seen in the video. The site’s clients also have access to photos in which each trimmer user will find useful information. In general, the lubrication process does not take much time and effort; our store offers the product itself at a low cost. That’s why, if you make a request online “to lubricate the video trimmer,” you will definitely end up on the KosiKosa website. Specialists filmed a video to provide the user with a complete understanding of the process of lubrication of individual elements and the trimmer gearbox, which is mandatory in the context of working with any type of mowing tool. Knives for brush cutters in Ukraine, as one of the types of cutting equipment, will always be offered by a specialized online store at competitive prices.

From time to time, in the midst of busy mowing work, your trimmer begins to make an unpleasant, grinding sound. This complains about the lack of lubrication of the gearbox - a more actively loaded unit of the device. And soon these “warnings” may be followed by jamming of the drive...

During operation, the mechanical part of the trimmer is loaded with contact forces on the teeth, resistance reactions from adhering grass (from time to time with dirt), dynamic, shock loads due to constantly changing torque. Trimmer gear lubricant

must take into account these features in all respects, therefore the selection of a brand must be strictly personal.

The following reasons are taken into account:

  1. Manufacturer's brand. It is not unreasonable for any brand to focus on lubricants of its own production (we can talk about cheap Chinese products later). This applies to manufacturers such as Husqvarna, Stihl, Huter, Makita, etc. The exception is Russian-made trimmers: for example, Caliber in the user annotation does not show the brand of lubricant at all...
  2. Lubricant viscosity. As everyone knows, what remains for our client to do is that lubricating compounds are divided into three groups - high-viscosity (colloidal accounting systems containing various additives), plastic compounds of universal application and solid lubricants that soften during operation.
  3. Not bad adhesion to the surface of the gearbox parts, and therefore where lubrication is required, it is not squeezed into the gaps or out of the unit.
  4. The intensity of lubrication use by the gearbox. Here you have to rely on your weight characteristics, experience and advice from professionals, since some of the Russian automotive trimmer industry, relying on the presence of their own service centers, generally do not give clear advice regarding the period of operation of the gearbox between two lubrications.

Lubricate the shafts of the Huter GGT-2500S lawn mower. #128515; And all the other gas trimmers!

The consumption of a lubricant also depends on the temperature at which it retains its lubricity. When the gearbox is heated to 40°C, it is considered that its operating conditions are satisfactory and there is enough lubrication.

Lubricant for two-stroke engines

The units do not have a separate oil distribution system. It is implemented through the production of a fuel and lubricant mixture from gasoline and 2T oil. It is mixed in certain proportions. They can be indicated in the instructions for the lawn mower or trimmer, as well as by the lubricant manufacturer itself.

When ingested, the resulting mixture lubricates moving parts and gradually burns out completely. Exhaust gases and combustion products are released into the atmosphere. Then the cylinder is purged.

A properly prepared mixture burns completely in the cylinder. Violation of proportions leads to the formation of soot and increased emissions. A composition with a low content of fuels and lubricants is not able to sufficiently lubricate and protect important components and elements. This will lead to a quick breakdown.

Storage and preparation in metal containers, glass and special containers is allowed. It is strictly forbidden to use plastic utensils and polyethylene for this purpose. Materials exposed to fuel decompose and reduce the quality of the finished product.

To increase efficiency, experts recommend only freshly prepared substances.

There are garden equipment on the market with a two-stroke engine that have 2 fundamentally different methods of mixing oil with gasoline:

  • A separate tank is installed for each liquid. The mixture is formed in the inlet pipe installed between the cylinder and the carburetor. Such devices are more massive and heavier, as they are equipped with additional capacity, supply lines and a plunger pump. The design helps achieve precise dosing. A balanced product helps reduce consumption, reduce the amount of exhaust gases emitted and slows down coking.
  • Liquids flow into one tank. Mix in proportions specified by equipment and oil manufacturers. Violation leads to negative consequences.

Preparing the mixture

Many novice users are sure that if you add more oil to the gasoline for the fuel mixture than necessary, it will be beneficial. This is wrong. Unburned oil will not be removed from the engine with exhaust gases, but will settle inside in the form of carbon deposits. This deposit threatens the integrity of the piston. If you use a mixture with excess oil regularly, the trimmer will smoke a lot, and a drop in power is inevitable.

If there is not enough oil, the trimmer will overheat, the piston rings will collapse and the piston will jam. If the oil deficiency is insignificant, then the trimmer will work for 30 - 40% less service life. If there is a lack of lubrication of more than 20%, the motor will jam after 20 - 30 minutes of intensive work. Each trimmer instruction contains proportions on how to dilute the fuel mixture. Usually it's 1:25. 1:40 or 1:50. In practice it looks like this:

Using the table, you can determine how much oil to pour into a certain volume of clean fuel:

Gasoline (liters)Oil (milliliters)
25:130:135:140:150:1
14033282520
5200165140125100
10400330280250200
16500495420375300

What are they?

Before you start selecting and preparing fuel and lubricants, you should understand what kind of lubricant there is, and based on the knowledge gained, make an informed purchase. Depending on the type of installed motor, use the appropriate group. They are marked 2T and 4T.

Depending on the base used, there are:

  1. Mineral. Budget group. They are based on petroleum products. They are characterized by increased viscosity. Designed for low power engines. Must be replaced frequently. The product reveals itself well in the temperature range from 10 to 250 C. Under the influence of low temperatures it thickens quickly. To improve performance and stability, many additives are added to the oil, but they burn out over time. The main disadvantage is the low service life.
  2. Synthetic. Obtained by synthesis. Substances containing esters are used as raw materials. Lubricating qualities are an order of magnitude higher than those of mineral ones. The same size of all molecules reduces friction. Low viscosity is leveled by long-term operation and unchanged characteristics under the influence of temperatures. The best solution for complex equipment that is used all year round. The cost leaves much to be desired.
  3. Semi-synthetic. The golden mean between the two types described above. Produced by distilling petroleum products and hydrocarbons. The ratio of components varies depending on the manufacturer. It received average smoke levels and reliably protects structural elements from the effects of negative factors.

It is strictly forbidden to mix oils that differ in structure. Because they have different properties from each other.

Ignoring this rule can lead to breakdowns and costly repairs of garden equipment. Before starting to use a substance of a different type, it is recommended to thoroughly wash the container and then fill in new lubricant. Most manufacturers add dyes to their products that are characteristic of a certain category of liquid (red, blue, green). This will reduce the likelihood of making a mistake.

Types of additives

To improve the performance characteristics of fuels and lubricants, various substances are added to them. Depending on their quantity and types, similar substances may differ in their properties.

  1. Wear-resistant. Reduces the depreciation of parts during operation of the mechanism.
  2. Antioxidant. Prevents the initiation and passage of oxidative processes. This increases the service life.
  3. Anti-corrosion. Protect the surfaces of parts and components from rusting.
  4. Anti-friction. Designed to reduce the negative impact of friction.

API classification

American standard used throughout the world. It helps to select a substance that has similar qualities and is best suited for a particular technique.

  1. T.A. For motors with a maximum power of up to 50 cm3 and air cooling. These include trimmers, lawn mowers, mopeds, scooters, etc.
  2. TB. Compatible with engines from 50 to 200 cm3. The class is compatible with trimmers.
  3. TC. For equipment with increased quality requirements. Used for motorcycles, snowmobiles, chainsaws and other land equipment.
  4. T.D. For liquid-cooled motors (boats, hydro scooters, boats, etc.).

JASO classification

Japanese standard for smoke emission during operation. As a rule, it is marked with a second letter designation.

  1. F.A. Minimal smoke emission. Relevant for countries where this process has strict requirements.
  2. FB. For countries where smoke emissions are regulated by stricter legislation. The discharge is practically invisible.
  3. F.C. Transparent smoke, invisible to the human eye.
  4. F.D. Group for two-stroke engines. Due to their high physical and chemical properties, they practically do not emit smoke. Mainly used for preparing fuels and lubricants for subsequent refueling of boats, boats and yachts.

In addition to the classification described above, you can find the Selfmix and Premix markings. The latter designates a lubricant that must be shaken before mixing; the former does not require such manipulations.

Instead of an epilogue

An analysis of the market for the materials in question has established that more than a third of it may be counterfeit samples and outright imitations (without preserving useful properties) of well-known brands. Therefore, it is preferable to purchase oils for lawn mowers at specialized retail outlets that inspire trust. At the same time, experts note that purchasing lubricants through online stores is a guarantee of an almost guaranteed unsuccessful purchase.

Regarding the brands presented on the market, it can be noted that the Russian manufacturer took far from the last place there, although the variety of products from it leaves much to be desired. And yet, to a greater extent, Russian samples have the best combination of price and quality indicators.

How to choose?

  1. Alkalinity (PH). This characteristic prevents oxidation of rubbing parts and slows down deformation. During active use of the composition, it gradually decreases. Acceptable indicators are not lower than 8 - 9 units.
  2. Viscosity. The ability to operate garden equipment at a certain temperature depends on it. Summer oil will thicken even with a slight drop in temperature. Since lawn mowers and trimmers are used in the spring and fall, the optimal ratings are 15W-40 and 20W-50. The marking means that the maximum permissible temperature at which the device will operate in normal mode is +35 C.
  3. Flash point. The value is 225 C. If it is less, the substance will burn out faster, and the load on the pistons and associated parts will increase. This will negatively affect the service life.

In addition, you should select oil depending on the type of engine. Two-stroke devices are not compatible with 4T lubricant.

Operating and repair instructions

Starting a gasoline trimmer correctly is a simple task for those who use the device for the first time or after winter downtime. Before running the unit and using the starter, it is worth filling the brush cutter with oil. This substance must contain certain additives that easily dissolve in fuel when exposed to high temperatures. Such substances will ensure proper protection of the motor elements, protecting against friction even under high load.

The most popular mistakes when starting are the following:

  • starting the engine if the ignition is turned off;
  • start with the damper closed;
  • low-quality or incorrectly formulated fuel.

Depending on what work needs to be done, the appropriate attachment is put on the trimmer. Running in a lawn mower involves using the engine at the lowest speeds, without loads. To carry out the break-in, you should start the lawn mower and run it in idle mode. This stage is best accomplished by inserting a fishing line, gradually increasing the load level and increasing engine speed. After running-in, the first operation of the unit should be about 15 minutes.

Patriot trimmers, like any other similar equipment, should be used carefully, avoiding sudden movements, as well as collisions with extremely hard objects. After each use, you need to let the brush cutter cool down. Also, the user should not forget to put on a belt before using the technique: this element will help optimize the impact, as well as distribute tension throughout the body. The belt must not only be put on, but also adjusted to suit you.

It is worth remembering that using a gasoline trimmer is highly undesirable in wet and rainy weather. If the unit gets wet, then it should be sent to a dry room and then dried. Continuous operation of the Patriot brush cutter can last from 40 minutes to an hour. When working with this unit, it is worth remembering the following safety measures:

  • dress in thick clothing before using the trimmer;
  • keep a distance of at least 15 meters from people;
  • use headphones or earplugs;
  • Use rubber gloves, boots and goggles for your own protection.

There are situations when the Patriot trimmer fails, namely: it does not start, does not gain momentum, or the coil is broken. There may be a lot of reasons that caused this situation, but the main one is considered to be improper operation. If problems or malfunctions occur in the operation of the unit, you should seek help from specialists, but if the warranty period has already expired, the user can try to solve the problem on his own.

If the engine stops starting, this may be a consequence of a dirty filter in the fuel tank. Replacing the filter will help correct the situation. It is also worth regularly monitoring the condition of the trimmer's air filter. If the part becomes dirty, wash it with gasoline and install it in its original place. Spare parts for Patriot lawn mowers can be found at service centers of this company.
