Aplina SDS98 Ride Lawntractor Gardeners looking for a fast and efficient way to manage large areas of overgrown grass should take a look at the well-equipped Alpina SDS98 Its ability to handle out-of-control growth is thanks to its side-discharge cutter-deck – long grass-cuttings that would be impractical to collect are instead ejected in neat and tidy rows to the right-hand side of the tractor, thus avoiding chute-blockages and saving time by eliminating the need for emptying-stops.

The Alpina SDS98 has been fitted with a Alpina ST350 engine; a highly efficient four-stroke power-pack that’s capable of producing a muscular 6.5kW from a compact 352cc cylinder-capacity; and which benefits from Lawnking noise-minimizing and emission-cutting OHV (overhead-valve) technology. It’s equipped with large-diameter drive-wheels that provide essential traction when you’re working on inclines or damp ground; and it benefits from electromagnetic PTO engagement, so you’ll find it quick and easy to start and stop the blades. Adaptable and flexible in use, the SDS98 offers seven preset heights-of-cut and combines an optional mulch-capability with a multi-speed manual drive.
