• Air Induction: Innovative Air Induction mowing system that draws clean air from the top and bottom of the deck, enhancing air flow which results in greater grass lift and superior cut
• Reverse Operating System (ROS): For improved safety. The ROS disengages the cutting blades when driving in reverse unless key is set to "mow in reverse" mode
• Year-Round Use: A wide range of accessories makes the tractors versatile and useful all year round. They can be fitted with trailers, snow blades, brushes and more
• BioClip Kit/Cover Accessory: Makes it possible to convert your mower to BioClip, which means that the grass is cut into small pieces that quickly decompose and return to the lawn as fertiliser, also making the lawn more drought resistant
