Allett’s fine fleet of professional lawn mowers have been literally earning their stripes for almost half a century & delighted, high profile clients include Wimbledon All England Tennis Club & the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, all of whom appreciate the fine finish & British trademark striped effect a good roller mower can produce. If you know Allett lawnmowers, this is no surprise as their dedication to quality is well known in the industry & this Allett Buckingham 20H Petrol Cylinder Lawn Mower neatly crosses the border between domestic & professional machines with it’s high quality, easy start, 196cc petrol engine, large sized 3.1 litre fuel tank for the unleaded petrol, & many other top-notch features. A self-propelled, petrol cylinder mower with a dual-roller system like that featured on the Allett Buckingham 20H (one forward, one rear) cuts far more evenly & produces crisper, longer lasting stripes than those produced by, for example, a rotary mower with a single rear roller. The cylinder system cuts far more precisely than other types of mower & this is simply down to the scissor like action of the six precision blades cutting against a stationary blade, delivering a finer, sharper, closer finish. It is the Allett Buckingham 20H’s two rollers that create the iconic, long-lasting & defined stripes, so admired in the British Isles. The rear-roller is double-section steel, covered with bonded rubber, textured for grip. It simultaneously drives the mower forward, & creates the stripes, while a differential offers more torque & helps avoid potential slipping. The forward roller, also steel, zinc-plated, has bearings for a smooth run & helps keeps the cut very even. The inclusion of a rake, situated in front of the front roller, assists the cutting system. It lifts lateral grasses, removes thatch to create an even smoother cut. The rake is depth adjustable. The cutting height is fully adjustable, with a practical range from 5mm up to 35mm, offering real choice & versatility & is easy to operate with release bolts & gear wheel. The large capacity grassbox, taking up to 84 litres, it is easy to remove & to empty & is surprisingly lightweight; bearing in mind the load it can take. Made for use on large lawns, parks & even cemeteries, the Allett Buckingham 20H Petrol Cylinder Lawn Mower can be fitted with a comfortable & innovative trailing seat, the Autosteer, which is integrated into the steering system when attached so it follows the mower exactly. This means you can sit in comfort & still make precise & accurate manoeuvres around borders, gravestones or statues, & also enables you to cover more ground in a mowing session. Without the Autosteer the recommended lawn coverage is 350m 2, with the Autosteer fitted it can be much more. Control of both the drive system & the cylinder is carried out with a classic single bale arm for ease & convenience, & the handlebars are height adjustable so you can work in the most comfortable, strain free position. As we have come to expect from Allett lawn mowers, they look as good as they work, with the traditional racing green & gold livery, re cylinder & gleaming steel of the rollers speaking volumes about the quality, tradition & heritage of the machine. They are manufactured in Great Britain & come with a two-year parts & labour warranty.
