• 

  TURF TYRES

  PROTECT THE LAWN SURFACE. Turf tyres reduce the chance of tracks being left by the ride-on mower thanks to their rounded tyre shoulders. This allows you to treat your lawn more gently.

• 

  Trailer hitch

  The integral trailer hitch enables easy mounting of attachments such as the convenient PICK UP 300 tilting trailer, which can also be used as a wheel barrow.

• 

  CENTRAL CUT-HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT FOR RIDE-ON LAWN MOW

  ADJUSTABLE FROM THE SEAT. The central cut-height adjustment of your ride-on mower makes it possible for you to maintain an ideal lawn height on your green area, depending on the terrain. And it’s easy to use: next to the seat is the lever via which you can adjust the cutting height in several levels. A scale indicates the current level in each case.

• 

  ROBUST FRAME (RIDE-ON MOWER)

  DRIVING COMFORT AND STABILITY. The robust frame construction gives your ride-on mower stability and makes it comfortable to drive. You also benefit from the compact design when working with attachments such as the snow plough set.

• 

  SPRING-MOUNTED, ADJUSTABLE SEAT

  COMFORT AND QUICK ADJUSTMENT. Adjust the optimal seating position of your ride-on mower without tools: the spring-mounted and height-adjustable seat is comfortable, practical and can be adjusted to almost any height.

• 

  LOW STEP

  FOR COMFORT WHEN GETTING ON AND OFF. The low step-on access allows you to easily assume and leave the sitting position on the mower. At the same time, the step-through design provides plenty of legroom.

• 

  GRASS GUIDANCE SYSTEM

  MINIMISES FINISHING EFFORT. Thanks to the grass guidance system, you can cut edges more precisely with your ride-on mower and therefore minimise the effort required for manual re-cutting. The grass guidance system on both sides of the mower optimally catches grass blades over the entire cutting width and feeds them to the mower blades.

• 

  GRASS COLLECTION BOX WITH SABRE HANDLE

  FOR EFFICIENT WORK. Empty the grass collection box of your ride-on lawn mower conveniently from the driver’s seat. Once you have released the ergonomic sabre handle from the locking position, you can fully unload the clippings with minimal effort. The excavator bucket shape of the grass collection box ensures optimum filling and effective emptying. The plastic collection box is easy to clean.

• 

  SINGLE-PEDAL DRIVE

  INCREASES DRIVING COMFORT. Manoeuvre quickly, and easily switch between forward and reverse gear using the hand lever – the STIHL-specific single-pedal drive enables comfortable and agile movement. The pressure-sensitive pedal enables precise control between standstill and maximum speed. The separate brake pedal allows the power tool to be stopped immediately at any time.

• 

  ELECTROMAGNETIC BLADE CLUTCH

  FOR BLADE PROTECTION. The electromagnetic blade clutch enables you to conveniently switch the blades of your ride-on mower on and off from the driver’s seat. This means you can react flexibly, for example by raising the cutting deck when driving over rocky surfaces, to protect the blades. When driving back onto the lawn to be mowed, move the cutting deck down again, and switch the blades back on at the push of a button.

  Mulching function

  With the mulch insert, the STIHL ride-on mowers can be converted into mulching mowers. For this purpose, the grass catcher box is simply removed and the mulch insert pushed into the grass catcher tunnel. This allows the grass to be shredded into fine particles inside the closed housing before they fall back into the turf, returning vital nutrients and moisture to the soil. Through this natural form of fertilising, disposal of the clippings is dispensed with.
