What is hydrostatic on a lawnmower?

like a automatic transmission on a car push a pedal to go forward and another pedal to go backwards. no gear shift,the harder you push the pedal the faster you go let up on the pedal and you stop.

The transmission. A hydrostatic mower is most commonly controlled by one or two foot pedals, but some models are operated by hand levers. Some also have a cruise control feature that allows the operator's foot to be removed from the pedal while mowing. These mowers are highly appreciated for the ease with which they can be operated; a users simply step or press and go. I've read that if you have any kind of slope that you mow regularly that a geared transmission is better and will last longer.

Don't know the technical answer, but the hydrostatic transmission works like an automatic transmission.

I don't know for sure. It comes with a hinged side door (which you keep closed for "mulching") and a side discharge attachment. I kept the door closed and the lawn looks great, no clumps of grass. After I mowed I turned it on it's side to clean out the grass and there was almost no grass stuck to the underside of the deck. The blade looked standard. I don't think it makes that much of a difference. Mulch is just a layer of material applied to the surface area of soil and helps to conserve moisture and fertilize. Grass clippings fit this definition and make a great fertilizer for your lawn. Cannibalism at it's finest! I don't know for sure.

I would imagine it would work really well on a riding lawnmower. I used it on my motorcycle for a long distance trip and had trouble if beverage was more than half full. Obviously the angles and speeds are a lot more extreme than your mower, so should work good for you.

the clamps and everything is to mount on the handle bar of a motorcycle or bicycle...I don't see it mounting to well on a lawnmower

No! My lawnmower was sinking into the floor, I needed to put plywood under it.

Very simple, it adjusts just like a conventional push mower. Levers by the wheels push in, and you can raise or lower it there.

Works awesome on leaves, but will also clog when leaves are wet. The tube has a spinning indicator that helps you determine when bags are filling. With my Husqvarna mower, I can reach behind me and feel these nylon bags getting full. Stop and empty before over filling. The tube will get full and you may have to remove it, but that's easy to do. The unit was super easy to install, also.

It controls the fuel flow. If it's not working properly, the mower will run slowly, surge or won't start at all.

well it feels like it weighs around 25 pounds but its very solid and it maneuvers around the yard very smoothlyI have the 20 inch wide the lawnmower this is the 18" lawn mower, the difference in weight might be just a couple pounds difference.

I believe so, but I don't think you are supposed to get the blades on the mower wet. I love the mower.

No, it doesn't affect the mowing. I guess if your grass was really tall it would pack it down somewhat but I have not experienced that myself.

Yes. The side discharge adapter attaches at the back of the mower in place of the rear bag. When you register check the "want side discharge" box. It's free.

This model can be adjusted to various heights and distances which I have done on my lawn. Also, the volume/distance of water can be reduced by slightly closing the faucet that controls the flow of water.

The lawnmower part of the tractor starts the mulching process and gets the leaves or grass clippings moving faster so the vacuum is more efficient. It could be used behind a 4 wheeler if someone designed an intake for it. More people already have a lawn tractor, so they designed it around that platform IMO.

I haven't noticed that mowing affects it. It's heavy enough to sink to the soil, I think.

So far we've had no problems with this lawn mower. You might want to check the gas type or air filter.

If you have a lawnmower that is loud enough to cause ear damage you should get a new one with a Honda engine:) The external input jack is standard phono jack type. If you turn up the volume full on these the roar of the crickets is incredible!!! They are really meant to clip sonic boom from gun fire while enabling you to still hear the range safety officer and score keeper.
