Toro DH140 Rear-Collect Garden Tractor (Ex Demo - 1 Hours Use)

Toro DH140 Rear-Collect Garden Tractor (Ex Demo – 1 Hours Use) £1899.00
The first offering in Toro’s DH range, the DH140, delivers the sort of impressive cutting-performance; convenient features; and robust build-quality that are essential for any serious gardener.It comes equipped with a Rear-Collect cutter-deck, which employs twin contra-rotating blades, the action of which creates a forceful air-stream that powers cut-grass at high-speed into the grassbag – even damp grass and twigs can be successfully bagged (the catcher holds a huge 250-litres of lawn debris).The deck measures a substantial 92cm and is fully-floating so as to ensure the contours of undulating terrain are closely tracked by the blades.The Toro DH140 Rear-Collect Garden Tractor doesn’t just collect cut-grass – with Toro’s recycling-mode selected, clippings are instead finely mulched and returned to the lawn surface, giving the neat appearance of bagging or raking, and also providing the turf with completely natural nutrients.Designed with driver-comfort to the fore, the Toro DH140 has been fitted with a suspended seat; electric key start; and electric deck-engagement.It benefits from an audible ‘bag-full’ warning that should prevent you overfilling and blocking the discharge-chute; and you can empty the bag from the seat – no dismounting or lifting required.This model is driven by a high-powered 344cc Briggs & Stratton engine with AVS for comprehensive vibration-reduction; and an overhead-valve for superior fuel-efficiency and a marked reduction in noise and harmful exhaust-emissions.Its chassis is made from rugged channel-steel, so durability is not in question; and its front-axle is made from cast-iron, thereby ensuring it will easily cope with any accidental impact from unseen objects.Lastly but certainly not leastly is a Tuff Torque hydrostatic transmission, which confers exceptional manoeuvrability by allowing the driver to adjust the tractor’s speed in infinitely-variable steps using a convenient car-style foot-pedal.
