Lawn tractors<br />
98cm – 108cm mulching<br />
1538M-SD / 1538H-SD / 1543H-SD<br />
These <strong>Mountfield</strong> lawn tractors provide a highly<br />
effective solution if you don’t want to collect your<br />
grass clippings. Instead of discharging clippings<br />
into a collector these mulching tractors retain<br />
them beneath the cutter deck to be cut and<br />
re-cut into small particles which are blown down<br />
into the lawn where they decompose and return<br />
valuable nutrients to the soil. Mow your grass on<br />
a regular basis and you’ll save time, money and<br />
effort without sacrificing the standard of finish.<br />
At times the growth may be too vigorous to<br />
mulch effectively. In these conditions simply<br />
select the side discharge function; grass will be<br />
neatly cut and spread allowing it to wilt naturally.<br />
All three models are powered by the <strong>Mountfield</strong><br />
7750 Series single cylinder OHV engine and have<br />
1538M-SD / 1538H-SD / 1543H-SD technical specification<br />
98cm or 108cm working width<br />
twin blade cutter decks. You have<br />
a choice of either a 5-speed manual<br />
transmission or the added convenience<br />
of a hydrostatic transmission.<br />
Suitable for areas of up to 2.5 acres<br />
for the 98cm models and 3.5 acres for<br />
the larger decked 108cm model, these<br />
machines are surely among the best<br />
value lawn tractors on the market.<br />
Their compact size also makes them very<br />
easy to manoeuvre and they take up less<br />
storage space than a collecting tractor.<br />

The Benefits<br />
of Mulching<br />
Mulching cutter decks<br />
recycle grass clippings<br />
by cutting the grass<br />
multiple times into extra<br />
fine particles that are<br />
then blown down into<br />
the lawn to decompose<br />
and return valuable<br />
nutrients to the soil.<br />
Save Time<br />
Mulching your lawn is<br />
quicker than collecting<br />
because there is no need<br />
to stop mowing to empty<br />
the collector.<br />
Instead of regular<br />
emptying stops you<br />
can keep mowing until<br />
the lawn is finished –<br />
typically saving at least<br />
30% of the time it would<br />
take with a collecting<br />
mower.<br />
Save Money<br />
As well as saving you<br />
time, this will also save<br />
you money as the time<br />
your lawnmower will<br />
be running will be at<br />
least 30% shorter -<br />
so consuming 30%<br />
less fuel.<br />
Feed your lawn<br />
A typical half-acre lawn<br />
can produce 4.5 tonnes<br />
of grass clippings each<br />
season. Those clippings<br />
contain as much as 55<br />
kilos of nitrogen. If you<br />
use a mulching mower<br />
that is enough nitrogen<br />
to keep your lawn<br />
as healthy and good<br />
looking as using any<br />
commercial fertiliser.<br />
The lawn also benefits<br />
from a steady natural<br />
diet with each cut, rather<br />
than periodic high doses<br />
of chemical fertilisers.<br />
