Hayter Harrier 48 BBC VS
The Harrier® 48 rear roller rotary lawnmower with variable speed is ideal for lawns up to 500 square metres (approximately 2 tennis courts) and allows you to mow at your walking pace (1.8 - 3.3mph).
The split rear roller design on this self-propelled machine gives a superb striped finish to your flat formal lawn and the BBC System allows you to stop the blade without turning off the engine, great when crossing a driveway or garden path.
The Hayter Harrier 48 has been in Hayter’s range for many years and the latest Hayter Harrier 48 Autodrive BBC VS incorporates all of Hayter’s experience in manufacturing top quality mowers and combines that experience with the latest design techniques and input from end users and dealers. The result is a truly excellent mower suited to any medium sized lawn.The Hayter Harrier 48 Autodrive BBC VS has a 19” (48cm) width of cut and is packed with features that will make cutting your grass a joy.
Crank-Safe BBC – The blade brake clutch allows you to step away from the mower and leave the engine running with the blade stopped. Hayter's Crank-Safe BBC incorporates built-in crankshaft protection giving the original purchaser a lifetime warranty against crankshaft bending.
Split Rear Roller – The rear roller on the Hayter Harrier 48 will give that classic striped finish to your lawn. The roller is split allowing each half to rotate independently which makes for easier turning and avoids the marks on the lawn that can be left by single piece rollers.
Variable Speed Drive – VS in the model name means Variable Speed. The Hayter Harrier 48 Autodrive BBC VS mower is self-propelled and the forward walking pace can be altered independently of the engine speed which means that the engine can run at full speed to generate the maximum airflow for collecting the grass clippings but the forward walking speed can be altered to suit the operator and cutting conditions.
Vari-Pitch – The latest Hayter Harrier 48 range features Vari-Pitch cutting technology that automatically adjusts the forward-pitch angle of the cutter deck as the height of cut is raised or lowered, increasing airflow in more difficult conditions to ensure efficient grass collection.
Single Lever Height of Cut Adjustment – Adjusting the height of cut on your Hayter Harrier 48 Autodrive BBC VS is simple. The height of cut is changed using a single lever.
Superior Cut and Collection – Using aerospace technology, the design of the blade and the cutter deck have been optimised to pack the grass clippings into the 70 litre grass bag. When the grass bag is full, it simply lifts through the handles for easy emptying.
Trim Side – The Hayter Harrier 48 Autodrive BBC VS features Hayter’s Trim Side which allows you to cut right to the edge of your lawn. On one side, the wheel, cutter blade and rear roller are positioned in-line allowing easy mowing around borders, raised flower beds and retaining walls, reducing the need to trim around the lawn after mowing.
Aluminium Cutter Deck – For maximum strength and durability, the Hayter Harrier 48 uses an aluminium cutter deck.
Wash Port – Keeping your new Hayter Harrier 48 clean is easy thanks to the wash port integrated into the cutter deck. Simply plug in the hose, switch the water on and start the engine to clean the underside of the cutter deck.
Soft-Grip Handle – The soft-grip handle ensures your comfort whilst operating the mower.
Briggs & Stratton Engine – A reliable Briggs & Stratton engine is fitted to the Hayter Harrier 48 Autodrive BBC VS. The engine features Briggs & Stratton’s Readystart system which ensures that the choke is always correctly set for easy starting.
