Grass is discharged neatly to the side — ideal for:

Side-discharge mowing is perfect when you need speed and efficiency rather than a manicured finish.

Hydrostatic drive makes mowing smoother, faster and far easier, especially:

• Around trees

• Along fences

• When reversing frequently

• Over varied terrain

✔ 98cm Twin-Blade Deck

Wide cutting width allows rapid mowing over large areas.
Twin blades produce excellent airflow, improving cut quality and grass dispersal.

• Strong torque for long, dense grass

• Low vibration

• Reliable starting

• Long service life

✔ Optional Mulching Kit

Add a mulching plug to finely chop clippings for natural lawn fertilisation.
