Alko T22-105HD V2 SD Lawn Tractor

David Bishop — Tue, 20 Feb 2024 17:29:42 +0000

The T22-105HD V2 SD is a hard working model from the Solo by Alko Premium Series with cruise control for larger areas. It has a 105cm cutting width and is fitted with a powerful and smooth running 22hp Briggs & Stratton V-Twin engine. The Alko premium tractors offer the same cut and collection performance of the Comfort range based on a sturdier chassis with more powerful engine options and further improved ergonomics. The side by side forward and reverse pedals, simpler lever controlled catcher emptying and easily adjustable seat are good reasons to consider this range. Larger tyre options - for greater comfort and grip - and cast iron front axles (on some models) also add to their appeal. There are five models in the Premium range with three engines (16hp, 18hp, 20hp, 22hp & 24hp), three cutting widths (95cm, 105cm & 123cm) and the option of push button catcher emptying on all models.

Stiga Estate 384

David Bishop — Fri, 25 Jan 2019 14:05:47 +0000

Powered by a Stiga ST400 414cc engine, this tractor is a strong performer. Suitable for gardens up to 1.5 acres. This tractor features an 84cm (33") twin bladed cutting system. The blades contra rotate and direct grass cuttings through the wide rear discharge chute into the collector. A twin bladed deck gives a better finish than one with a single blade. The Stiga Estate 384 is fitted with the foot controlled hydrostatic transmission system which gives simple and precise speed control both in forward and reverse. Collection is cleaner and more powerful due to the direct centre rear discharge, in conjunction with the throw and air volume generated by two blades. The cutting result is also visibly improved as a twin bladed deck follows the ground contours better and is therefore less likely to scalp the grass. Cutting heights range from 25mm to 80mm with 7 pre-set positions. Grass cuttings are blown into the large 240 litre rear mounted collector, which has an alarm to alert the operator when the collector is full. The collector can be emptied from the drivers seat, simply pull the lever up and tip out the grass. This tractor has a comfortable high back seat which is adjustable to suit the driver. A mulch plug is supplied to enable the clippings to be recycled into your lawn, providing nutrients and less grass to dispose of when conditions are suitable. The seat also features a safety switch which cuts out the engine if the driver gets off the machine when the blades are turning. To engage the cutting blades, simply pull out the switch on the dashboard; the electric clutch does the rest. Turning off the blades is equally easy, simply push in the switch to engage a brake which stops the blades within 3 seconds. Other tractors to consider are the Mountfield 1530M and 1530H as they share the same chassis and cutter deck but have different specifications. The Alko 92cm machines are also worth consideration.
