Mountfield 1430M Lawn Tractor

Product Description

For the first time ever, a lawn tractor with an 82 centimetre cutting width features twin blades, a radical inclusion offering an even smoother, more efficient cut for large lawns & competition beating performance all round at a highly affordable price. Designed with fresh, smooth lines & an easy step through shape for problem free mounting & dismounting, the Mountfield 1430M Lawn Tractor delivers true innovation & value for your money with its cleverly designed, non-overlapping cutting system, non-timed to avoid serious damage if an obstacle is encountered but still producing a smooth & even cut every time & delivering unrivalled collection in dry or wet conditions. The cutting deck also provides plenty of mowing versatility with a seven-position cutting height adjustment ranging from a precise 25mm for a very smart, clean finish to 80mm for longer & rougher grass. The airflow created by the blades contributes greatly to the grass collection, unrivalled in a machine in this price range. Another great feature, rarely found on tractors in this class, is the grass collector full indicator. When the collector is full an audio alarm – a loud beeper – alerts the driver so no having to continually turn around to check the level. The engine powering this revolutionary lawn tractor is a very powerful Mountfield series 7500, running very reliably, smoothly & quietly & putting out 7.5kw at 2800RPM with a large capacity of 432cc. This engine has several standout features compared to many engines in this category. The oil is pumped, not splashed around the chamber, for more even lubrication of engine parts & a longer engine life. The piston moves in a cast-iron liner & the engine is held in ball bearings in an oil bath. All these features mean a much longer engine life & quieter performance, while the crankshaft is carefully balanced & calibrated to produce low vibration. There is a six-speed manual gearbox on board with five forward gears & one reverse to offer maximum flexibility with speed control & manoeuvring. The fuel tank capacity is six litres, meaning less time spent filling up & more time spent in the driving seat Detail is all when it comes to comfort & every control on the Mountfield 1430M is designed to be comfortable, simple to use & to be within easy reach of the operator. Like the height of cut adjustment handle to the left of the operator, moulded to fit the h&, optimised to require less effort & at exactly the right angle for maximum lift without strain. Like the telescopic grass box emptying lever, again positioned in exactly the right place to avoid undue strain while reaching back. Like the soft grip-textured mounting plates/foot rests, angled for the most comfortable driving position. Then there is the comfortable, padded & supportive high-backed seat, mounted on suspension springs, which is fully adjustable, enabling you to sit in the optimum position for comfort & convenience, & the steering wheel, which is ergonomically positioned & moulded for extra grip. The deck is engaged electronically to save time & effort & the grass collector holds an unusually generous 240 litres
- a massive capacity for a tractor this size
- & for added convenience & time saving it can be emptied easily from the driving seat courtesy of a telescopic handle. Chunky wheels with large, deeply patterned pneumatic tyres ensure stability, whatever the terrain & conditions, & the rear wheels are larger, facilitating a tighter turning circle, while powerful headlights help extend working hours & enable you to work on in poor visibility. With a cutting deck width of 84cm, & overall width of 89cm, the tractor is narrower than most standard garden gates. A deflector kit & mulch plug are available separately for the Mountfield 1430M, effectively turning it into a three-in-one mowing workhorse, & the tractor carries a two-year manufacturers guarantee.
