  • Ensure terminal connections are tight and do not loosen over time. This will help prevent corrosion and unwanted discharge.
  • Coat terminal connections with grease or other lubricant to prevent unwanted discharge.
  • Ensure the battery is brought up to full charge when not being used. Batteries which fully discharge will have a shorter life and degraded performance.
  • Store battery in cool, dry place (68°F/20°C).

About Lawn Mower and Tractor Replacement 

Growth in electric and tractor mowers has significantly helped to improve the quality of lawn mower and tractor equipment. As a potential 9-billion-dollar industry, it’s in the manufacturers best interests to fill this need that is being driven by convenience, environment and decreased lawn sizes. Batteries generally last 3-5 years and typically finding a replacement is easy and affordable.

Things to Consider When Finding a Replacement Mower Battery

Volts – this measures the amount of current that is able to flow. Tractor Lawnmowers generally have 12V batteries while battery powered lawn mowers range between 18V and 120V. For these in general, the higher the voltage, the longer it will run.

Amp Hours – this generally is a measure of how long the battery will run.

Size – for a replacement battery a critical requirement will be that it fits in the space provided. There’s nothing worse than buying a replacement and it won’t fit. Generally, when looking on BatteryClerk.com, putting your model number should yield the exact replacement but it’s worth checking the dimensions listed on the item to double check.

When purchasing a replacement battery for a ride-on lawn mower or tractor, it's essential to consider a few key factors to ensure compatibility and performance. First, verify the voltage requirement, typically either 6-volt or 12-volt. Next, check the battery type and make sure it matches the current one. Check the Cold Cranking Amps (CCA) rating for reliable starting in colder weather. Ensure the physical size and group number match your mower's specifications for a secure fit.
