The Chipperfield R8-24 bridges the gap between the biggest walk-behind mowers and the smallest garden tractors — giving you the comfort and pace of a ride-on in a footprint compact enough to work around trees, borders and tight corners. It is built to keep medium to large lawns of up to 3,000m² looking their best with far less effort than pushing a mower.
Powerful, dependable engine
A 224cc single-cylinder four-stroke petrol engine delivers a healthy 6hp (4.4kW) — plenty of torque to power through thick, damp or fast-growing grass. Electric key start gets you going at the turn of a key, and a recoil back-up starter means a flat battery never stops you finishing the job.
Effortless automatic drive
The automatic CVT transmission is operated by a single foot pedal for smooth forward and reverse control — no clutch, no gear changes. Simply press to set your pace and adjust on the move as the ground and grass length change, keeping both hands free for steering.
Three ways to manage your clippings
The 61cm steel cutting deck offers eight cutting heights from 30 to 75mm, so you can dial in the ideal finish through every stage of the growing season. Choose the option that suits the day:
- Collect into the generous 150-litre grass box for a clean, tidy finish with fewer stops to empty
- Side discharge to power through longer or overgrown grass more quickly
- Mulch the clippings back into the lawn to feed the soil and cut down on waste
Compact, comfortable and easy to handle
At roughly 128kg with a tight turning circle and a comfortable riding position, the R8-24 is genuinely easy to manoeuvre. Its compact size lets you weave around obstacles and trim close to edges, while the seated position takes the strain out of larger lawns and reduces fatigue.
Built to last
A durable steel deck and quality steel blade are made for the long haul. A manual PTO gives simple, positive engagement of the cutting deck, and a built-in deck wash port makes cleaning down after mowing quick and straightforward. The R8-24 is supplied with a 2-year domestic warranty for complete peace of mind.
