The new 2023 Mountfield SP53H self-propelled petrol lawn mower will seriously blow you away with its long list of features and practical designs. You can be assured of an exceptional build quality, a wealth of top-quality features and all for a very reasonable price tag. One of the best brand new features that really stands out to us is the improved clutch system - instead of the dog tooth transmission used in its predecessor, this new improved SP53H model features a smooth cone clutch transmission which means that the friction belt power transition has a lovely smooth take up of power - there's no clunking or shunting, it just feels ultra smooth and powerful. Considered a "high wheeler" thanks to its large, rugged 280mm rear wheels, this is a lawn mower that can tackle longer grass and medium/large sized gardens up to 50m x 50m. These wheels give the lawn mower a very purposeful look, and ensure a neat, smooth finish even on rougher terrain.
Being self-propelled you won't need to exert any energy and so mowing the lawn will quite literally feel like a walk in the park. The Mountfield SP53H is incredibly easy to operate and you'll find it's easy to maneuver around garden obstacles such as trees and garden furniture. And being petrol-powered you won't need to worry about working near a power source. Also, it won't cost you a penny and is a step in the right direction towards sustainable gardening.
So it's great news that the Mountfield SP53H comes complete with a very efficient mulching system - the mulch plug is included too, so you'll be all set to mulch should you wish to, right from day one. And thanks to the auto choke, there's no priming to be done by the user, just a simple recoil pull to bring this beautiful machine roaring to life. If you want a machine that has been built to last, then look no further than this outstanding Mountfield SP53H self-propelled petrol lawn mower. From it's hard wearing exterior that has been powder coated and painted right through to its hard wearing and top quality components this is a lawn mower that will stand the test of time. It features a fully pressed deep drawn steel chassis with no weld points for longevity and efficiency.You'll appreciate the generous 51cm cutting width as you'll make fewer passes on your lawn and therefore, you'll be finished in no time. There's a total of 6 cutting heights, changed via a single easy to use lever and these range from 22-65mm which means you'll be able to achieve a neat and tidy lawn even if you started with wild, untidy grass.
Thanks to the unique front anti-scalp combs this lawn mower won't scalp the grass which is great news if you have a new lawn or if the ground is damp or soft. The grass catcher has been carefully made from a special textile that allows the air flow to compact the collected grass to make the most of the space. The textile section takes up less space when in storage too.With 60 litres capacity you'll have little to complain about as trips to the compost heap will be at an all time low which means you can work for longer with fewer interruptions. The bag itself is easy to empty and attach again and there's even a full box indicator to remind you when it's time to empty it.
