If a 107cm deck is not big enough for your garden, take a look at the larger 726cc Cub Cadet XT3QS127 with a 127cm side-discharge deck, which can also be used with a mulch-kit or grass-collector if required (both optional). Equipped with an incredibly powerful 23hp Kawasaki V-Twin OHV engine, this garden-tractor will take care of the largest paddocks and lawns with ease. A cast-iron front axle; cut-in-reverse switch; hydrostatic transmission; and cruise-control add to the impressive specification of this versatile tractor.

It combines an intuitive foot-pedal hydro-drive with a class-leading turning-circle (17cm), so it offers manoeuvrability that belies its size; and it’s supplied with a mulch-plug you can fit when cutting formal, well maintained lawn-areas.

As with all Cub Cadet tractors, durability is enhanced by a cast-iron front axle. A cut-in-reverse system is a useful addition for those moments when turning the tractor around in a tight space is not practical. If you prefer to mulch grass-clippings for a tidier result, the supplied mulch-plug can be fitted (grass-collector optional). This model has a best-in-class 40cm turning-circle.
