Combining an extra-wide 117cm triple-bladed cutter-deck with one of the tightest turning-circles of any lawn tractor currently in production (36cm), the Snapper SPX210 will comes into its own on large, obstacle-packed lawns. It boasts a foot-pedal controlled hydrostatic drive, so your hands will be free at all times to deal with the steering; and it’s powered by a Briggs & Stratton Intek 7220-Series engine with a spin-on oil-filter and pressurised lubrication for years of maintenance-light service. This model offers seven preset cutting-height, which are simple to select using a low-effort lever positioned directly to hand. Also featured is a cast-iron front axle for superior durability; and cruise-control for enhanced driver-comfort when undertaking long straight-line passes.

Designed for very large-scale domestic use, Snapper’s top-of-the-range RPX-Series tractor combines an immensely powerful 724cc Briggs & Stratton V-Twin engine with an expansive 105cm cutter-deck and a cavernous 350-litre collector. It offers three-in-one mowing (bag; mulch; rear-discharge), so you’ll find it impressively flexible in use; and it employs a hydro-type transmission that optimises manoeuvrability by enabling smooth, gear-shift-free ground-speed adjustment via a foot pedal. Other desirable features include LED headlights; a high-back seat with arm-rests; and a comprehensive dashboard-display.
