Features

Blade Brake Clutch (BBC)

Industry’s Thickest Deck

The 6 mm (0.3") thick die cast aluminium deck is manufactured to withstand the abuse of commercial mowing while minimising overall mower weight.

Crankshaft

Steel Wheels

Low maintenance and highly durable steel wheels utilise sealed ball bearings and steel pivot arms for long life with less downtime and lower replacement costs.

Designed for Commercial use

Both models come with a long range fuel tank which saves time on re-fuelling and a replaceable oil filter.

Variable 3-speed Gearbox

Heavy duty 3-speed gearbox propelling the mower at 2.3 and 3.8mph.

Atomic® Mulching Blades

Atomic® mulching blades feature an aggressive "tooth" design that shreds grass and leaves into small particles. The teeth curl upward behind the blade to suspend clippings in the chamber so they are cut and re-cut until they virtually disappear.
