Carry on like normal.

I worked for a commercial mower and the owner didn't want us to wear any ear protection so we could hear what was happening with the machines.

I did listen to music with my earbuds though
 
Do it myself and wear Peltor 3M ear defenders whilst the engine is running - Honda mowers are rated at 105DB so not quiet. They work a treat.
 
I have a very small patch of yard and do the work myself - ear muffs on of course :)
 
my hubby doesn't have tinnitus and uses plugs for even a push mower and weed wacker. i used to think he was being a little absurd till i got tinnitus and i'm only 40. i protect my ears everywhere now just like he does.
