    The catcher box can be 100% filled, thanks to the optimised design shape and air guide. The air vents face downwards so that grass and dust do not escape upwards. The two-part catcher box design ensures easy opening and emptying.

  • Rear Roller

    With the aid of a full width split roller on the rear axle, the grass is rolled in the direction of travel. This results in the typical striped lawn pattern.

  • Blade brake clutch (BBC)
    Blade brake clutch (BBC)

    A blade clutch disengages the engine and the blade so that the grass catcher box can be emptied without stopping the engine, or whilst the lawn mower is moving. This is particularly important when driving over mown areas, to the compost heap or over gravel paths.
