The Cub Cadet CC1016RD-E boasts all the features you’ll need to tackle large-scale lawn-maintenance applications with the minimum of fuss. It’s equipped with a hydrostatic transmission, which gives you control of both the ground-speed & the forward/reverse function from one foot-pedal; & it’s powered by a 16hp Kawasaki engine with pumped lubrication for the efficient oiling of key engine parts when working on slopes. This high-end domestic lawn-tractor offers ‘ Direct Collect’ bagging, whereby the air-flow created by the three blades ensures highly efficient, blockage-free collection (an optional rear deflector & mulch-kit are available, should you wish to mow without the grass-catcher). It features the patented ‘ Fast Attach’ system, which allows for the tool-free removal & fitting of the deck, bumper bar & other accessories; & it benefits from an electric tipping-mechanism, which means you can empty the impressively capacious 350-litre grass-collector without dismounting. Comfort features include a soft-grip steering wheel, deluxe driver’s seat & handy cup holder. This model’s hydrostatic-drive & extra-tight turning-radius make it one of the most agile machines in its class. A cutting-width of 92cm makes it ideally suited to paddocks & lawns of two-acres & up.
