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 />
