Inspect your mower's blade for sharpness. A dull blade can rip and damage grass, leading to an unhealthy lawn, while a sharp blade provides a clean, even cut. You can purchase specialized tools to sharpen the blade yourself, or many hardware stores offer professional blade sharpening services. It's recommended to sharpen the blade at the beginning of the mowing season and again midway through the summer for best results. Always ensure the spark plug is disconnected before handling the blade for safety.
