Chipperfield T16-38HC Rear-Collect Lawn Tractor
The high-performance and incredibly reliable Chipperfield T16-38HC Lawn Tractor offers a premium suite of specifications designed to make maintaining medium-to-large lawns a fast, efficient, and comfortable experience. Powered by a dependable 449cc EV450-B single-cylinder engine featuring a cast-iron sleeve for enhanced engine life, this tractor delivers smooth, high-torque power while running on a generous 6.3-litre fuel capacity to keep downtime to an absolute minimum.
Equipped with a foot-pedal-controlled hydrostatic transmission, the T16-38HC removes the clunkiness of manual gear shifts entirely. It allows you to transition seamlessly between forward speeds up to 9 km/h and reverse speeds up to 5 km/h. Combined with an exceptionally tight 600mm turning radius, this lawn tractor excels at navigating intricate garden layouts, border edges, and challenging landscaping obstacles with fluid agility.
The cutting architecture centres around a stamped 95cm twin-blade mower deck that guarantees a clean, uniform finish across your turf. Blade engagement is effortless thanks to the electronic PTO system, which lets you spin up the blades safely from the operator’s position. For varying grass lengths and seasonal changes, the 6-stage cutting height is easily adjusted between 25mm and 100mm using a robust lever-and-rail mechanism.
Collected clippings are fed directly into a substantial 240-litre rear grass collector. To save you the hassle of stopping to check your load, an integrated audible buzzer alerts you exactly when the bag reaches full capacity. Complete with an onboard hour meter to easily track your servicing intervals, substantial high-traction tyres (15″ front / 18″ rear) to protect your turf, and a factory-fitted front bumper for extra peace of mind, the Chipperfield T16-38HC represents an outstanding balance of raw cutting power, operator comfort, and long-term durability.
