F our mowers feature within the current range and are all fitted with hydrostatic transmission as standard providing smooth speed control by simply pressing the foot pedal; no gear change, levers or knobs required.
Powered by Briggs & Stratton or Kawasaki high performance engines these mowers provide superior cutting with top mulching performance, discharging grass clippings into the lawn, returning valuable nutrients into the soil.
Top of the range is the Tornado Pro 9118 XWS, featuring 4 wheel drive and is powered by a twin cylinder Kawaskai FS691V engine; built to tackle heavy duty tasks and challenging terrain. The cast iron front axle and large heavy duty 121cm cutting deck with three untimed blades is driven using premium quality pulleys and a Kevlar reinforced belt that has been designed for intensive use. The fully floating deck is constructed from steel that is 25 % thicker than usual along with lateral structural reinforcements and 6 anti-scalp wheels.
Side discharge comes into its own in longer grass conditions and leaves a uniform finish where the grass has grown too long to mulch. The mulching plug can easily be fitted allowing efficient recycling of grass clippings back into the soil, saving time and without sacrificing the standard of finish.
Three of the mowers within the range are fitted with large 15 litre rear mounted fuel tanks giving the freedom to operate for long periods without the need to refuel. With a selection of seasonal implements ranging from poly rollers, carts, sweepers and snow blades these tractors are extremely adaptable.
