Stiga Park 740 PWX Ride-On Lawnmower (Excluding Deck)

Stiga Park 740 PWX Ride-On Lawnmower (Excluding Deck) £4794.00
Manoeuvrability; functionality; comfort; and user-friendliness are the hallmarks of this innovative, European-built ride-on from venerable garden-machinery specialists Stiga. Its remarkable agility is thanks largely to its articulated steering system, which firstly means you’ll no longer be restricted to mowing up and down in straight lines; and secondly will enable you to negotiate landscaping and garden obstacles with speed and efficiency. The pivoting chassis also ensures the back wheels track precisely the line of the front wheels, so you can focus on driving rather than worrying about what’s happening to the rear.The forward deck-positioning on the Stiga Park 740 PWX Ride-On Lawnmower brings two clear advantages over the classic mid-deck configuration – the cutting path is clearly visible, so you’ll be able to mow with greater precision; and the grass is cut before it’s laid flat by the wheels, thereby ensuring an impressively consistent finish (a wide selection of Combi decks is offered).The Stiga Park 740 PWX boasts a four-wheel-drive transmission, which means you’ll have no trouble working on steep slopes or in adverse whether conditions. The drive is hydrostatic, giving you infinite-increment ground-speed control, which works to further enhance manoeuvrability. A split differential works to eliminate turf scuffing, important when working on a fine lawn; while power-assisted steering and an adjustable seat combine to ensure high levels of driver-comfort.The high-end features don’t finish there – power is supplied by a premium-quality Briggs & Stratton twin-cylinder key-start engine that’s characterised by its low-noise, low-vibration operation; and superior fuel-economy. As with all B&S power-packs, reliability is not in question.There’s also a capacious 12-litre fuel-tank that works with the fuel-efficient engine to provide lengthy run-times between each top-up break; and an hour metre that allows you to check at-a-glance when a service is impending.The following rear-discharge and mulch-capable decks are available: 95cm Combi 2 Bladed Deck; 95cm Combi Electric 2 Bladed Deck: 105cm Combi Electric 2 Bladed Deck; 100cm Combi Electric 3 Bladed Deck; 110cm Combi Pro Electric 2 Bladed Deck.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 Estate Pro 9122 XWS Lawn-Tractor

Stiga Estate Pro 9122 XWS Lawn-Tractor £3799.00
Stiga’s flagship lawn-tractor, the Estate Pro 9122 XWS, is brimming with sought-after features; and offers the sort of rapid work-rate that’s essential for anyone maintaining a large paddock area or substantial domestic lawn of around 20,000m2 and above.It comes equipped with a 122cm-wide Contraflow cutter-deck that’s fitted with two counter-rotating blades, the action of which produces a powerful under-deck airflow. In mulching-mode, this ensures the clippings are super-finely chopped so they’ll rot-away that much faster; while in collection-mode, it works to blast clippings into the catcher at high-speed, which in turn makes it possible to collect damp grass without worrying about the discharge-chute becoming blocked. The Stiga Estate Pro 9122 XWS Lawn-Tractor boasts a smooth, clutch-free hydrostatic transmission, which allows you to accelerate through the gears using a foot-pedal, rather as you would with an automatic-drive car. This brings obvious benefits when it comes to work-rate and manoeuvrability; and also makes it quick-and-easy to select the most effective ground-speed for the conditions you’re faced with.Powering this top-of-the-range garden-tractor is a 724cc Briggs & Stratton Intek 8240 V-Twin engine, which, as you’d expect from a twin-cylinder unit, is exceptionally efficient, and remarkably smooth and quiet in operation. The engine develops a beefy 13.1kW (at 2700rpm), so you’ll be able to tow some of the heavier attachments that are available; and it features electric key ignition for trouble- and effort-free starts every single time.A six-LED dashboard display provides the driver with important status information, including battery-status; revs-per-minute; and fuel-level; while a 360-litre grassbag – one of the largest on any tractor in this class – ensures you’ll get the job finished without many trips to the compost-heap (a ‘collector full’ warning helps to prevent overfilling).Other high-end features on the Stiga Estate Pro 9122 XWS include a safety contact-breaker under the seat, which is activated the moment you dismount; powerful dual-headlights that will enable you to keep on going in fading light; and a 4WD transmission for the successful negotiation of sharp inclines, rough ground and mud.

The Handy THCS-65 Petrol Chipper-Shredder

The Handy THCS-65 Petrol Chipper-Shredder £629.00
The Handy THCS-65 combines heavy-duty all-steel construction with a seriously powerful 6.5hp Briggs & Stratton I/C overhead-valve engine, but nevertheless comes-in at a price that won’t break the bank. It has two separate hoppers; the smaller one is for branches up to 5cm in diameter; the larger one is for general garden waste, with its expansive opening making it easy to shovel-in large volumes of leaves, twigs, hedge-cuttings and similar debris. Thanks to its convenient transport handle and pneumatic tyres, the Handy THCS-65 Petrol Chipper-Shredder is simple to move around the garden.

Hayter R53A Power-Driven Recycling Lawn Mower VS ES (Sens-A-Speed Transmission, Aluminium Deck) (Code: 449)

Hayter R53A Power-Driven Recycling Lawn Mower VS ES (Sens-A-Speed Transmission, Aluminium Deck) (Code: 449) £590.00
Thanks to its ability to collect, mulch or side-discharge grass-clippings, the Hayter R53A Power-Driven Recycling Lawn Mower is as at-home on formal lawns as it is on rough-grass areas. Mulching (or ‘recycling’) clippings can reduce mowing time by up to 30-percent, and is a natural and environmentally-sound way to nourish the turf; while side-discharge mode allows you to mow long grass without the collector, as clippings won’t get tangled around your feet. Unlike many power-driven mowers, the Hayter R53A is highly manoeuvrable and easy to control – Hayter’s Sens-a-Speed drive-system matches the forward-speed of the mower to your walking-pace, so you’ll be able to mow safely and accurately around obstacles and along borders. The Hayter R53A is driven by a high-powered 190cc engine from market-leaders Briggs & Stratton. This ultra-dependable four-stroke power-unit is clean-running and fuel-efficient, and is equipped with an electronic ignition, so you won’t have to wrestle with a starter-rope. This truly exceptional lawn mower also features an unusually wide-ranging cutting-height, which is adjustable from 25 to 114mm to suit conditions; and is supplied with a large-capacity 54.5 litre grass-catcher, which keeps the frequency of emptying-breaks to a minimum when you’re collecting clippings. The height-adjustable handlebar incorporates an Operator Presence Control for enhanced user-safety.

Earthquake Badger 650 Front-Tine Rototiller (Special Offer)

Earthquake Badger 650 Front-Tine Rototiller (Special Offer) £535.00
Built to the most exacting standards and employing premium-grade components throughout, this heavy-duty front-tine tiller from Earthquake is the perfect tool both for shared allotment use, and for more challenging domestic applications. Making it tick is a powerful and highly durable 190cc Quantum engine from top U.S.-based manufacturers Briggs & Stratton. These 6.5hp units are fitted with a Maxi-Clean™ automotive-style air-filter for optimum engine-protection; and they’re equipped with mechanical torque-control for maximum power-delivery across the RPM-band. A Magnetron™ electronic ignition combines with a decompression-valve to ensure starting is consistently reliable and requires minimal pulling-force. The Earthquake Badger 650 Front-Tine Rototiller offers numerous longevity-enhancing features, including high-alloy brass gearing; a 2.5cm diameter solid-steel tine-shaft; and a protective power-coated paint finish. Giving you the choice of three tilling-widths (27cm; 40cm; 52cm), the Earthquake 650 can be quickly set-up to suit the nature of the job you’re tackling. It has a pair of large-diameter (30cm) drive-wheels that work to prevent the tines digging-in too deep and getting the tiller stuck; and it employs Earthquake’s unique Isovibe™ drag-stake technology, which greatly reduces vibration-transfer and helps the machine maintain its ideal digging-level for more comfortable handling. Operator-comfort is further enhanced by a two-stage height-adjustable handlebar, which can also be collapsed for either transportation or storage.

Echo HCA265ES Long-Reach Hedgetrimmer

Echo HCA265ES Long-Reach Hedgetrimmer £529.00
High hedges; low ground-cover; shrubs; and bushes can all be efficiently maintained with this supremely flexible long-reach hedgetrimmer from Echo. Its versatility lies in the fact that it offers a choice of seven blade-angles – with the blade set straight you’ll have a reach of around two-metres; with it set at 90-degrees you’ll have the perfect angle of approach for the tops of tall hedges (the blade can be locked parallel to the shaft for safe storage and transport). The Echo HCA265ES Long-Reach Hedgetrimmer is powered by a professional-duty 25.4cc (1.2hp) two-stroke engine, which incorporates dual piston-rings for impressive durability. Thanks to Echo’s Easy-Start technology, only a gently pull on the starter-rope is needed for ignition. Offering carefully thought-out ergonomics; conveniently grouped controls; and comprehensive vibration-damping; the Echo HCA265ES is one of the most comfortable and easy-handling machines of its type. It’s fitted with a set of 45cm double-sided, dual-reciprocating blades, which have been precision-ground blades for the cleanest possible cut (the double-sided design of the blades allows you to cut both ways, in turn speeding-up your work-rate).

Lawnflite LF48-SPBR Self-propelled Rear-Roller Lawn Mower

Lawnflite LF48-SPBR Self-propelled Rear-Roller Lawn Mower £449.00
Most roller-mowers are re-worked versions of four-wheeled models – not so the Lawnflite LF48-SPBR. It’s a purpose-built roller-mower, and as such, is aimed squarely at formal-lawn enthusiasts looking to achieve an ultra-neat finish with sharply defined stripes. The Lawnflite LF48-SPBR has been fitted with a 161cc Briggs & Stratton engine, which employs the latest direct overhead-valve configuration for drastically reduced noise; fuel-consumption; and exhaust emissions. In addition, DOV engines have fewer moving parts then less advanced power-units, so wear is minimised and service-life is maximised. Superbly well constructed, the Lawnflite LF48-SPBR Self-propelled Rear-Roller Lawn Mower utilises only quality components and is built around a corrosion- and impact-resistant ABS polymer deck. This roller mower has a good-sized grass catcher and gives you the choice of six preset cutting-heights (15 – 65mm). The cutting-height is centrally controlled, so adjustments are quick and easy to make; and the grass-catcher (70l) is made from breathable fabric for efficient, blockage-free damp-weather collection. A power-driven lawn mower, the LF48-SPBR will be at home on lawns that contain banks; rough ground; and undulating sections. The gearbox is made from alloy for impressive durability; and the rear-roller is split for easier turning. For maximum user-comfort, it has been equipped with an ergonomic, height-adjustable handlebar that has vibration-absorbing rubberised grips. The handlebar can be folded-down to help save space in the storage area. This model’s 48cm width-of-cut makes it suitable for larger-scale domestic use.
