sustainable amount of the energy used for various purposes on earth for atmospheric system. The difference is just the application of the energy source. It is assumed that a lawnmower using solar as the energy source will address a number of issues that the standard internal combustion engine and electric motors lawn mowers do not. A lawnmower with solar energy will be easier to use, it eliminates down time byfrequent trips to the gas station for fill-ups and danger associated with gasoline spillage. The dangerous emissions generated by the gasoline spillage and that of the internal combustion engine into atmosphere are eliminated. The solar powered lawnmower will help to reduce air pollution. Thus, it is used.
This paper will give idea about how we have did study of automatic solar grass cutter. Nowadays grass cutter machines are becoming very popular today. Pollution is manmade, which we can be see in our daily life. In old model of grass cutter IC engine was used and hence because of its environmental impact pollution level rises engine driven cutter is more costly. Maintenance of such such conventional machine is more. To avoid these drawbacks we plan to built new type of grass cutter which runs on solar energy and this model is also economical. The aim of our paper is to make the grass cutter which operates on solar energy hence save the electricity, avoid use of fuel and reduces manpower. The aim of our paper is to make the grass cutter which operates on solar energy hence save the electricity and reduces manpower. A solar powered grass cutter was designed and developed, based on the general principle of mowing . This seminar is deal with designer of solar powered grass cutter comprises of direct current (D.C) motor, are chargeable battery, solar panel, a stainless steel blade and control switch. The solar powered grass cutter is operated by the switch on the board which closes the circuit and allows the flow of current to the motor which in turn drive the blade used for mowing. The battery recharges through the solar charging controller. Performance evaluation of the developed machine was carried out with different types of grasses.
2. LITERATURE REVIEW Nikhil Bhujbal [1] focused much on environmental friendly solar grass cutter. There are studies and experiments going on for human enlargement in many countries on the solar energy, so they made concept of solar energy. They explained that the machine will include DC motor, rechargeable battery, solar panel, a stainless steel blade and control switch. Hitesh Ritolia [2] is explained a fully automated lawn cutter using solar panel. This paper explained that design and automatic lawn mower which operates on solar energy and avoids drawback of old lawn mowers. It is cleared that powered is made from renewable source energy i.e solar enery hence consumption of fossil fuel is reduced.

1. INTRODUCTION
Monika Patil [3] explained about automated solar grass cutter. It will be easier for the people who are going to take the project for the further modifications. This project is more suitable for a common man as it is having much more advantages i.e, no fuel cost, no pollution and no fuel residue, less wear and tear because of less number of moving components and this can be operated by using solar energy. This will give much more physical exercise to the people and can be easily handled.
Due to the continuous increase in the cost of fuel and the effect of emission of gases from the burnt fuel into the atmosphere, this necessitated the use of the abundant solar energy from the sun as a source of power to drive a lawn mower. A solar powered lawn mower was designed and developed, based on the general principle of mowing. Mowing is achieved by the D.C motor which provides the required torque needed to drive the stainless steel blade which is directly coupled to the shaft of the D.C motor. The solar powered lawnmower is operated by the switch on the board which closes the circuit and allows the flow of current to the motor which in turn drive the blade used for mowing. The battery recharges through the solar charging controller. Performance evaluation of the developed machine was
