The Mountfield HP42 lawn mower represents excellent value for money. Powered by a Mountfield ST120 123cc 4 stroke engine, the Mountfield HP42 hand propelled lawnmower is ideal for small to medium sized lawns. The engine is very easy to start, with a standard recoil rope system and will give many years of trouble-free mowing.

With a single lever, height of cut can be simply and quickly adjusted through 6 pre-set cutting positions from 22mm to 65mm. The easy to remove collector holds 60 litres of grass or if you would prefer not to collect the grass cuttings you could choose to mulch using the mulching included; recycling grass clippings back into your lawn can save you time, money and effort

This great little mower is a light and easy to use and extremely economical to run and with fold down handles making it easier to store. The tough hammered steel deck is not only stylish but hard wearing and will give you many years of service.

Please use a fuel stabiliser or Aspen fuel with your lawn mower.

WHAT DOES FUEL STABILISER DO?

Mountfield Universal Fuel Stabiliser contains a carefully balanced formulation based on light hydrocarbon fractions and components specially selected for their performance enhancing properties:

• Prevents the degradation of fuel – fuel stays fresh for up to 2 years.
• Protects the fuel against oxidation.Prevents gum and varnish build up.
• Protects the engine and fuel system parts against rust and corrosion.

WHY DO I NEED TO USE FUEL STABILISER?
Modern petrol now typically contains 5% ethanol. Ethanol readily bonds with atmospheric moisture creating an ethanol-water mix and this oxidisation creates what is known as stale fuel.
As fuel oxidises it can turn to gum and clog jets and other openings in the fuel system. Gummed up carburettors cause serious problems in power equipment such as lawn mowers that see intermittent use or have long periods of storage.

Ethanol blended fuel is also a corrosive substance that can cause the gradual destruction of the metal used in the fuel systems of outdoor power equipment (particularly soft metals such as brass and aluminium). Ethanol also absorbs water, drawing it into the fuel mixture. Water is highly corrosive and when ethanol and water combine it can cause performance problems and fuel system damage.
Good quality fuel stored in an airtight container should stay stable, not oxidise and stay fresh. However the typical fuel tank of a lawn mower isn’t ideal for storing fuel. It isn’t 100% airtight, so fuel will oxidise in the tank, and over time (as little as 30 days) will go stale.
