push mower

Unpowered lawn trimmer

A push mower is a lawn mower powered by the person pushing it, as opposed to a self-propelled or riding mower.

The term usually refers to a reel mower—a cylinder of spiral blades that spin as the wheels turn—though it also applies to walk-behind gas or electric mowers without self-propulsion: The yard is small enough for a push mower.
