"a machine used for cutting grass"

"a machine which is used to cut grass"

 "a machine which is used for cutting grass"

 I wonder if they are all correct and whether they all sound natural?

 

Thanks

Success - it is not the position where you are standing, but which direction you are going.

Hi,

They're OK, but why not just say 'a lawn-mower'? Smile

( You could add 'a grass-cutting machine'. )
