![]() ![]() When you encounter thicker grass, be prepared to ease up on the drive bars a little so you can slow down. ![]() The most noticeable is that when the blade speed increases in tougher grass, the drive speed steps up with it. There are some consequences of the design. When you crank it up to “high” speed, you’re able to put full belt tension on the pulley and drive at the fastest speed. By allowing a little bit of belt slip, your drive is slower. On the “slow” speed side, it puts less tension on the belt and pulley. This adjusts the cable so you can set the drive bars to engage the pulley at the most comfortable level for you. If you look under the drive control area, there’s a small dial. It’s very similar to the controls on our Husqvarna self-propelled mower. Instead of having a button, dial, or slider, you just need to adjust how much pressure you put on the drive control bars. The cable connected to the controls puts increasing pressure on a pulley to adjust your speed. Rather than having a separate motor drive the wheels, DeWalt uses a more traditional belt system and connects it to the front wheels. As we walk through it (or behind it, lol), keep in mind that this system is designed to mimic the way gas-powered mowers work. DeWalt 2x20V Max Self-Propelled Lawn Mower Design Notes Drive SystemĭeWalt’s drive system design may cause some confusion if you’re used to battery-powered lawn mowers already. That’s enough to cover most 1/4-acre lawns on one charge and up to 1/3 of an acre for some grass species. For most moderate cutting, expect 45+ minutes of runtime. ![]()
