Stiga Park Pro 740 IOX Ride-On Lawnmower (Excluding Deck)

Stiga Park Pro 740 IOX Ride-On Lawnmower (Excluding Deck) £7724.00
Bristling with premium features and designed and built in Europe to the most exacting standards, the truly impressive Stiga Park Pro 740 IOX will breeze its way through intensive commercial landscaping applications. The most powerful model in the Park Pro range, it’s driven by a very high-performance 14kW Briggs & Stratton 8270-Series twin-cylinder engine that employs the classic V-Twin layout so as to keep vibration, noise and wear at manageable levels. A high compression-ratio delivers maximum power without the need to use premium fuel; while a forged-steel crankshaft and a dual element air-filter combine to ensure you’ll get season after season of unfailing reliability.The rear-discharge and mulch-capable deck on the Stiga Park Pro 740 IOX Ride-On Lawnmower is situated forward of the machine so as to give a clear, unimpeded view of the cutting-path; and to allow you to mow under bushes and low-hanging branches. A number of Combi decks are offered, ranging in width from 95 to 125cm (you can choose between manual or electric height-of-cut control). As if it weren’t innovative enough, the Stiga Park Pro 740 IOX also features an articulated chassis, which firstly minimises the turning-circle for hassle-free obstacle negotiation; and secondly means you can concentrate on what’s happening in front of you because the rear-wheels follow exactly the same line as the front-wheels.The Stiga Park Pro 740 IOX has been equipped with a four-wheel-drive transmission that makes it possible to operate effectively on rough terrain and muddy inclines. The drive is infinitely-variable for intuitive manoeuvrability; and there’s a split differential that works to prevent turf-damage when turning on formal lawns. Driver-comfort is key when undertaking pro-scale jobs, so Stiga have furnished the Park Pro 740 IOX with a suspension-mounted high-back seat; an electric PTO clutch; and hydro-piston-assisted steering (cruise-control can be specified).A powerful low-energy LED headlight means poor light won’t cause you to stop work; while a hugely capacious fuel-tank ensures very little time will be lost breaking-off for refuelling.We offer a White Gloves delivery service with this product and will give a product demonstration upon hand over.

Stiga Park Pro 540 IX Ride-On Lawnmower (Excluding Deck)

Stiga Park Pro 540 IX Ride-On Lawnmower (Excluding Deck) £7324.00
Exceptionally manoeuvrable; capable of negotiating adverse terrain; and able to access space-restricted areas, this innovative front-cut ride-on from Stiga will meet the needs of the most exacting professional gardener.Driving it is a very high-powered 15.2kW (688cc) Honda GXV660 OHV V-Twin engine that’s been developed specifically for commercial use; and which boasts a high-efficiency head design for a smoother idle and increased power at low revs. A dual-element air-filter and forced lubrication combine to maximise service-life.The chassis on the Stiga Park 540 IX Ride-On Lawnmower pivots at the midway point between the front- and rear-wheels, thereby minimising the turning-circle, which in turn makes it possible to mow around obstacles with speed and precision. This articulated steering technology also means the back wheels will follow exactly the same path the front-wheels do, so you’ll be able to focus on your cutting-path rather than worrying about the back-end tipping onto flowerbeds or catching trees and outbuildings.The Stiga Park Pro 540 IX Ride-On Lawnmower utilises an out-front deck-design that not only allows you to mow awkward areas, like under low shrubs and overhanging branches, but also provides a clearer view of the deck more accurate results.Equipped with a powerful 4WD transmission, the Stiga Park Pro 540 IX can be used on the sort of demanding terrain that would be too much for a conventional ride-on to handle. The drive is hydrostatic, so ground-speed adjustment is smooth and intuitive. So as to ensure high levels of operator-comfort, Stiga have furnished the Park Pro 540 IX with hydro-piston-assisted steering; a suspended high-back seat; electric height-of-cut adjustment (electric deck only); and an electro-magnetic PTO clutch (cruise-control is optional).A massive 14-litre fuel-tank delivers a faster work-rate, as breaks for refilling will be few and far between; while Stiga’s provision of an LED headlight facilitates safe operation when the light’s against you.Also worth noting is the split-differential, which works to eliminate wheel-spin and the inevitable scuffing that results; and the hour metre that makes it easy to keep track of when the next service is impending.The powerful engine on this model makes it suitable for use with any of Stiga’s Combi (mulch / rear-discharge) cutter-decks.We offer a White Gloves delivery service with this product and will give a product demonstration upon hand over.

Stiga Park Pro 340X Ride-On Lawnmower (Excluding Deck)

Stiga Park Pro 340X Ride-On Lawnmower (Excluding Deck) £5964.00
The Swedish-designed Stiga Park Pro 340X is characterised by its remarkable manoeuvrability and ability to access space-restricted areas, and as such will come into its own on lawns with lots of obstacles and landscaping to work around. At its heart is a 570cc Briggs & Stratton Vanguard 18 V-Twin overhead-valve engine with a low-oil shutdown system and dual-element air-filter for exceptional durability in the face of intensive use; and angled ports for a smoother idle; improved fuel-efficiency; and reduced exhaust emissions. Key start makes firing-up the engine a simple process.The Stiga Park Pro 340X Ride-On Lawnmower employs an out-front deck design that gives the driver an unhindered view of the cutting-path, thereby ensuring close-quarters cutting around obstacles and along fence lines can be carried-out safely and accurately. The forward-mounted deck also delivers a more consistent finish than a mid-positioned deck, as the grass is cut before it’s flattened by the wheels (a choice of decks is offered).This high-specification hydrostatic four-wheel-drive on the Stiga Park Pro 340X makes it possible to traverse terrain that would defeat a two-wheel-drive machine; and has a separate hydraulic pump that produces a rapid top-speed of 11km/h via a heavy-duty Kanzaki transaxle. Ground-speed adjustment is in infinite increments with no clutch or need to stop to shift-gear.Boasting fully articulated steering, whereby the chassis pivots at its mid-point, the Park Pro 18 is hard to beat when it comes to manoeuvrability – obstacle negotiation and end-of-pass turns can be carried-out with ease. The pivoting chassis also ensures the back-wheels follow exactly the same line as the front-wheels, so you won’t gave to worry about the rear-end of the mower clipping anything.So as to maximise driver-comfort, Stiga have equipped this model with an adjustable high-backed seat that’s mounted on a parallel suspension; and effort-saving hydraulic servo steering.A powerful LED headlight means you’ll be able to keep working in low-light conditions; while an hour-metre lets you see when a service is required.Also featured is an adjustable height-of-cut, which you can set to any of ten-stages between 25 and 90mm; and a hugely capacious 14-litre fuel-tank that works to keep downtime to a minimum. We offer a White Gloves delivery service with this product and will give a product demonstration upon hand over.
