Stiga Park 540 LPX Ride-On Lawnmower (Excluding Deck)

Stiga Park 540 LPX Ride-On Lawnmower (Excluding Deck) £4204.00
If your garden contains the sort of complex landscaping and hard-to-reach nooks and crannies that would defeat a conventional ride-on mower, then this European-built front-cut mower with articulated steering is worth serious consideration.Its ability to negotiate space-restricted areas and tight corners is down to its pivoting body, which delivers a super-tight turning-circle and allows you to concentrate on what happening in front of you as the back-wheels will follow the exact track of the front-wheels – there’s no chance the rear end of the mower will clip anything. Also contributing to manoeuvrability is the power-assisted steering and infinitely-variable foot-pedal controlled hydrostatic transmission.The front-mounted configuration of the mower-deck on the Stiga Park 540 LPX delivers numerous benefits over the mid-mounted deck, including giving the driver an unimpeded view of the cutting-path for precision results; and producing a superior finish as the grass isn’t flattened down before it gets the chop. Electric height-of-cut adjustment (on EL cutter decks) allows you to set the blade position without having to dismount.The Stiga Park 540 LPX Ride-On Lawnmower has been fitted with a beefy 500cc Briggs & Stratton single-cylinder four-stroke engine that utilises the U.S. manufacturer’s acclaimed overhead-valve technology that works to lessen fuel-costs, noise, emissions and vibration. Key start means no more wrestling with a recoil-starter rope; while a 12-litre fuel-tank makes it possible to get plenty done between each break for a top-up.As its name suggests, the Stiga Park 540 LPX boasts a four-wheel-drive that will enable you to traverse significant inclines and other challenging terrain-types without fuss. A split-differential works with the extra-wide-profile drive-tyres to ensure you won’t scuff delicate surfaces.There is a choice of eight cutter-decks available with this model which can all be set-up to either rear-discharge or mulch cuttings, so great results are achievable on a variety of grass-lengths.We offer a White Gloves delivery service with this product and will give a product demonstration upon hand over. This service is limited to England and Wales.

Stiga Park 340 MX Ride-On Lawnmower (Excluding Deck)

Stiga Park 340 MX Ride-On Lawnmower (Excluding Deck) £3264.00
Characterised by its reliability, functionality and superior cutting-capability, this premium-grade homeowner-use ride-on from Stiga is aimed squarely at the more exacting domestic gardener. A highly innovative machine, it features an articulating chassis that confers the sort of manoeuvrability you just can’t get from a conventional ride-on mower, thereby making it a great buy for anyone whose lawn has obstacles and tight corners to navigate. Also, as the rear-wheels follow the same path as the front-wheels, there’s no chance of the back-end of the machine clipping anything, so you can concentrate on what’s happening in front of you.The front-mounted cutter-deck on the Stiga Park 340 MX Ride-On Lawnmower has two clear advantages over a mid-mounted deck: firstly the grass is cut before the wheels run over it, so you’ll get a far neater finish; and secondly, you’ll have a much clearer view of your preferred cutting-line, in turn making it possible to mow flush against walls and fence-lines with the utmost accuracy.The Stiga Park 340 MX has a hydrostatic four-wheel-drive transmission that gives infinitely-variable speed-control in both directions; and which will enable you to cover the sort of adverse terrain that would defeat a two-wheel-drive ride-on (a split differential prevents scuffing during turns).So as to ensure a comfortable, fatigue-free drive, Stiga have equipped the Park 340 MX with servo-assisted steering; an adjustable seat; and foot-pedal deck-lift.A choice of ten different blade-heights (25 – 85mm) means you’ll be able to achieve a precision finish; while electric key start ensures firing-up the engine will be a hassle-free operation at each time of asking.The engine itself is a commercial-grade Briggs & Stratton Powerbuilt 4155 model; a high-performance 500cc power-pack with B & S’s Balance-Tek technology for a marked reduction in vibration; and a cast iron cylinder sleeve for superior long-term reliability. This model is suitable for areas up to two-acres and is supplied with a choice of either a 95cm or 105cm deck that you can set-up to either mulch or rear-eject cuttings.We offer a White Gloves delivery service with this product and will give a product demonstration upon hand over.

Lawnflite-Pro 448KJW Four-Wheel Lawn Mower (Special Offer)

Lawnflite-Pro 448KJW Four-Wheel Lawn Mower (Special Offer) £799.00
This rugged, commercial-grade machine from Lawnflite features a shaft-drive to the rear wheels, rather than the more common belt-drive. This confers exceptional longevity and optimises torque transfer for maximum traction on slopes and wet ground. There are two forward-speeds to choose from, so you can work at a pace that’s comfortable, and which best suits the grass-conditions. Combining a 48cm cut with a high-capacity 75-litre collector, the Lawnflite-Pro 448KJW Four-Wheel Lawn Mower is suitable for use over substantial areas. It’s driven by a high-powered Kawasaki overhead-valve engine (5hp), which runs smoothly, cleanly and economically; and it features fan-assisted grass-collection, which guarantees a comprehensive pick-up, even in typically damp British conditions. Another high-specification feature on the Lawnflite-Pro 448KJW is its blade-brake clutch. This makes it possible to stop the blade turning without cutting the engine, thereby doing away with the tiresome task of stopping and restarting every time you need to cross a non-grass area or empty the grass-catcher. The Lawnflite-Pro 448KJW is constructed around a heavy-duty alloy deck, which confers strength, durability and corrosion-resistance. Single lever cutting-height control ensures it’s simple to make the necessary adjustments; while large-diameter, wide-profile wheels help to protect the lawn surface during turns.
