The engine will start to overheat and all the bearings and rings will start to wear and eventually seize and lock up the engine. The engine will be ruined in a very short amount of time.

What happens if you run lawn mower without oil?

Oil is a lubricant that helps to keep an engine running. If a person runs a lawn mower without oil, the mower will run, but it will cause problems like stalling out, or worse. +++ Its engine will run, but only for a very short time before seizing, probably ruining it.
