Features

TURF TYRES:
The large turf tyres of the STIHL ride-on mower help to protect the lawn. Thanks to their rounded tyre design, they reduce the formation of driving tracks.

CENTRAL CUT-HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT FOR RIDE-ON LAWN MOW:
The lever to adjust the deck cutting height is located directly next to the driver's seat. It enables individual adjustment of the cutting height in up to eight steps.

ROBUST FRAME:
The robust frame construction gives the mower a high level of stability and driving comfort. The STIHL ride-on mowers compact design is great for using attachments such as the AGW 098 garden roller or PICK 300 tilting trailer.

MULCHING FUNCTION:
MOW AND FERTILISE IN A SINGLE STEP. The mulching function saves you having to dispose of cuttings and lets you fertilise your lawn naturally. The mulching blades shred the cut grass into small particles which are then automatically distributed evenly over the turf.

SPRING-LOADED AND ADJUSTABLE SEAT:
The most comfortable seat position can be set without the use of tools. This allows individual adjustment of the driver's seat to almost any body size.

LOW STEP:
The low step on the STIHL ride-on mowers provides ample legroom and allows for comfortable access to the seat.

CATCHING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM:
The catching system guides the grass blades across the entire working width of the mowing deck. It helps to guide the grass towards the mowing blades for a more efficient cut.

GRASS COLLECTION BOX WITH SABRE HANDLE:
The polymer grass catcher box can be emptied effortlessly from the driver’s seat simply using the curved shaped handle. The "dumper" design ensures optimum filling and residual-free emptying of the grass catcher box. Cleaning the catcher box is also easy.

With the STIHL single pedal drive, the direction of travel can be conveniently switched between forward and reverse gear using a hand lever for quick manoeuvring.
