Stiga Park 500 W

The Stiga Park 500 W front-deck ride-on lawn mower offers incredible power coupled with 50:50 articulated power steering to ensure you can work hard and fast and avoid obstacles with the greatest of ease. Aimed at larger lawns, it's ideal for both domestic gardeners and busy professionals alike.

Drawing its power from the sizeable 586cc twin-cylinder STIGA ST 550 Twin engine the Stiga Park 500W has the ability to reach speeds of up to 10 km/h which means even if you’ve got a lot of ground to cover, you can do so quickly and efficiently and achieve exceptional results every time. The mower’s front-mounted deck will ensure you have a clear view of what is in front of you, ensuring you have easy access to corners and the ability to leave edges uniformly neat. And thanks to the floating deck the Stiga Park 500 W works really well on bumpy, uneven ground.

The very first Stiga Parks were initially designed in 1974, and the brand name still stands for functionality, reliability, comfort, quality and care for the environment. The Park 500W 2WD is no exception, from the mechanical servo articulated steering and hydrostatic transmission to the comfort seat, steering wheel and ergonomic controls, you have quality, comfort and economy built in.

Light, articulated steering and hydrostatic drive give you superb control - you can go as fast or slow as conditions dictate while manoeuvring really close to trees or into corners. Front mounted cutting decks add to the driving experience, providing unrivalled visibility and cut the grass before you drive over it.

Should conditions dictate, for example in heavy, rough grass areas, you can easily convert from mulching to rear discharge in seconds - no tools are necessary and with ten different heights of cut to choose from, you can be assured of a smart finish every time. Electric height of cut adjustment is a great asset if you have different types of grass areas to mow. If you drive from a lawn to a paddock for example, and wish to change the cutting height, simply press a switch to select the desired position.

Things have moved on alot since 1974, but Stiga’s attention to detail and their never ending quest to bring quality, comfort and economy to the busy discerning gardner has never waivered; which is why the Park 500W offers you a wealth of features, from its articulated steering and smooth, responsive hydrostatic transmission to the ultra comfortable seat, steering wheel and ergonomic controls.

The Stiga Park 500W is aimed at larger lawns of around 3 Acres or so. It features a generous 100cm cutting width together with a whopping 10 electrically controlled cutting heights which means this premium ride-on mower is ready for anything. This is ideal if you have different sections of ground to cover. For example if you are mowing a lawn that needs to look perfectly manicured you may choose the lowest setting but if you then need to move over to an orchard that requires a higher cut, you can simply change between the heights of the cut at the touch of a button. It really couldn’t be simpler or easier.

Another stand-out-feature of the Stiga Park 500 W is the handily placed combi-switch which allows you to change between mulching or rear-discharging in a matter of seconds, no tools required. The conditions of your grass will very much dictate whether you choose to mulch or rear-discharge the grass, of course. Rear-discharge is ideal in heavy, rough grass or where the grass is longer or damp. If conditions allow, you can choose to mulch, and it's important to note here that the mulched grass is rich in all the essential nutrients that your lawn needs to remain lush and healthy, so, therefore you will be fertilizing your lawn (organically, of course) as you mow it, and you will be unlikely to require additional lawn care products which means you will be saving time, effort and money.

The Stiga Park 500 W ride on lawn mower has lots of incredible features that have been re-designed to ensure their latest ride-on lawn mower is bang up to date and offers the modern gardener everything they need to ensure their gardens are kept in the very best condition possible. Stiga knows that a manual choke works very well with a petrol engine and therefore the engine itself is easy to start, with the traditional manual choke will ensure you don’t have any problems getting going, even on damp colder mornings.

Stiga are known for their attention to detail and often their design features can be a bit of a surprise, such as the cutting edge cooling bonnet and external fuel cap. We love the quick flip mechanism which lets you easily clean the deck in seconds. The LED headlights are essential to allow you to work in safety even in fading light.

A nice modern update is the compact side dash board with its easy to use operations. From here you will have the information you need, right at your fingertips, to ensure a smooth, stress free operation. The comfortable seat offers lower back support, and a side pocket storage compartment - and you’ll have plenty of legroom too, so all you need to do is sit down, switch on and you’re ready to go with the minimum of fuss or effort. If needed you can change the position of the steering wheel in a matter of seconds, you’ll need a spanner of course, but once it's done and you’ve found the perfect comfortable working position (and don’t forget the seat is fully adjustable too) the Stiga Park 500 W will be the ultimate workhorse you need to keep your garden in great shape for many, many years to come.
