The Stiga Tornado 398 Hydrostatic Drive Lawn Tractor.
Designed for side discharging the grass clippings or with the optional cover attached will chop the cuttings into a fine mulch.The Stiga Tornado 398 Lawn Tractor, combines push-button blade-engagement with an ideally positioned cutting-height selection lever, a raised soft-grip steering-wheel and an adjustable high-back seat.
It’s fitted with a pivoting front axle that ensures a consistent finish on undulating terrain; and it benefits from a manoeuvrability-optimising hydrostatic drive that gives you smooth, ground-speed control with no need to stop and manually shift gear.
Twin anti-scalp gauge-wheels work to stop turf-marking when manoeuvring on inclines; while a hosepipe fixture-point means you’ll have no trouble getting rid of corrosive, performance-inhibiting debris from the underside of the deck.
The substantial wide-profile rear tyres on the Tornado 398 offer the ideal compromise between surface-gentleness and high-grip traction.
Other features include a safety contact-breaker that prevents start-up when the driver’s seat is vacant; a cup-holder for on-hand refreshment; twin headlamps for safe poor-light mowing; and a handy mow-in-reverse function.
Designed for areas up to 8000m2.
