Stiga Estate 384
For gardens up to 1.5 acres in size this garden tractor offers the power and versatility you need. The hydrostatic transmission (similar to using an automatic car) and 84cm cut width will make light work of large grassy areas along with a whopping 240-litre rear-mounted grass collector.
The Stiga Estate 384 is a sturdy compact tractor, small enough to go through a a standard 36" garden gate yet large enough to maintain a good sized lawn. The 432cc engine delivers power to a fully hydrostatic transmission; a clutchless automatic system that allows infinitely variable forward and reverse speeds using a foot pedal and can shuttle seamlessly the two greatly enhancing manoeuvrability.
The cutting deck features twin contra-rotating blades for a fine finish plus powerful rear discharge and collection of clippings. The blades are engaged or disengaged at the flick of a switch through an electronic blade clutch. A snap on hose connection on the cutter deck facilitates cleaning after use.
Clippings are collected in a rear mounted 240 litre collector, that can easily emptied without having to leave the drivers seat. If you don't want to collect to your clippings why not fit the mulching plug. For areas that are being cut on a more regular basis the mulching function cuts and re-cuts the grass into small particles that disappear into the turf, returning valuable nutrients to the soil.
Mulching is a great feature. It saves so much time and cutting the lawn can be more than 30% quicker as there is no need to stop to empty clippings, which also results in a significant fuel saving. You may well ask “Will I see the mulched grass?” and the answer is “No!” Mulched clippings are blown down into the turf and are not noticeable, provided the grass is cut regularly and not on the lowest setting.
This model has 7 heights of cut, from 25-80mm, a great finish is assured. Recommended for lawns of up to 1.5 acres.
