Before you start any project get together all the right tools.

You will need :

1. Scraper to clean the underside of the mower bed from caked-on grass clippings.
2. Large and small socket wrench. It's better to have two separate handles. This way you do not have to switch sockets while working
3. Adjustable crescent wrench
4. Broom
5. Scrap piece of lumber
6. Work gloves
7. WD-40 lubricant or motor oil
