  • Mulching function

  • Multi-blade

    The multi-blade cuts the grass gradually and then chops it into fine pieces in the housing. When used with a grass collector box, the finely cut grass is directed by the multi-blade straight into the box to ensure it is filled to capacity. When used with the mulch insert, the grass is chopped up into fine particles which are returned to the grass.

  • Polymer deck Zoom

    The housing of VIKING lawn mowers is made of high impact, heat and UV resistant polymer.

  • Replaceable side bumper strips
