Mountfield SP53 3-in-1 Self-Propelled Petrol Lawnmower

From top UK brand Mountfield, the SP53 is a versatile and fast-working machine that’s capable of handling typically variable British conditions, and which offers the sort of productivity essential for anyone maintaining a substantial lawn.

At its core is a STIGA ST 170 OHV engine; a top-quality, 166cc four-stroke air-cooled power plant, which benefits from OHV technology - you’ll enjoy low fuel-costs with reduced emissions, less fatigue-inducing vibration and a cut in neighbour-annoying noise. The engine is rated at a hefty 3.5hp, and has been equipped with a roomy 0.55-litre fuel tank for extended runtimes.

Capable of either bagging, rear-discharging or mulching clippings - with the latter mode getting the job done around 30% faster - the three-in-one Mountfield SP53 Elite can be set-up to achieve great results, whatever the conditions.

It boasts power-driven rear wheels that take all the strain out of covering slopes and rough ground; and it benefits from a generous 51cm cutting-width, which ensures large swathes are mown with each and every pass.

The Mountfield SP53 Self-Propelled 3-in-1 Petrol Lawnmower’s 'Hi-Wheel' design not only provides scuff-free traction, but also makes it much easier to manoeuvre in overgrown grass.

A six-step height-of-cut - simple to set using only one lever - ensures you’ll be able to deal with variations in grass-conditions through the growing-season; while a front-mounted skid plate delivers a scalp-free finish and superior collection performance.

Also important is the blockage- and spillage-preventing 'collector full' indicator.
