H&-built in Britain to the highest engineering standards & bristling with practical & convenient features; the refined Westwood V23-50D is the ultimate way for a homeowner to maintain a beautifully cut & neatly-striped lawn. Driving the blades, rear-wheels & power take-off is a 784cc Yanmar three-cylinder engine, which, unlike most domestic garden-tractor engines, runs on diesel rather than petrol, thereby lessening fuel-costs; reducing the emission of harmful exhaust gasses; & increasing torque at lower revs. The high-levels of torque developed by this engine (46 Nm) are harnessed by Westwood’s innovative ‘hybrid-drive’ technology, which ensures that, even at low engine-speeds there’s ample torque for challenging cutting-conditions; adverse terrain; & PTO attachments. The Westwood V23-50D Diesel Garden Tractor is available with an expansive 127cm Combi mower-deck, which offers both mulching & rear-discharge modes, with mulching saving a great deal of time by eliminating the need to collect clippings. Alternatively this tractor may be fitted with a 105cm High Grass Mulch Deck for orchards & other areas of rough grass. Should you wish to pick-up the clippings, you can fit Westwood’s optional Powered Grass-Collector, which employs powered brushes rather than suction to lift debris, thereby ensuring even long, damp grass can be successfully collected (leaves, twigs, pine-cones, etc will also be bagged). The PGC holds an immense 390-litres of garden detritus; & can be emptied automatically using a dashboard-mounted button. A real pleasure to drive, the Westwood V23-50D employs a hydrostatic transmission, which means that you can adjust the ground-speed in infinite increments using dual foot-pedals – one for forward; the other for reverse. It features an Operating Performance Indicator, which makes it easy to keep an eye on speed & economy; & it offers a 10 preset heights-of-cut, which can be set as low as 12mm (as low as most cylinder mowers) for a really close-cut, manicured finish. Adjustments are made using a lever positioned immediately to the driver’s right h&. Anyone who has spent all day riding around on a garden tractor will know that it can put a strain on your back. Westwood have remedied this problem by fitting the V23-50D with an ergonomic padded seat that can be set-up to suit the operator.A double-skinned engine cowling reduces noise, making things more pleasant for you & your neighbours; while a parking-brake, which must be engaged for the engine to start, works to maximise the safety of the user & those in the vicinity of the machine. Also featured is a differential-lock, which you can engage to avoid wheel-spin when the going gets really tough. Enhance the versatility of your purchase with any or all of the following attachments: 390-litre Powered Grass-Collector; Powered Scarifier; Powered Broadcast-Spreader; Dozer Blade. ...

The Westwood V25-50HE is the celebrated UK-manufacturer’s flagship machine, & with its 127cm-wide Combi cutter-deck, it’s capable of covering a substantial paddock or formal lawn in an impressively quick time (the deck is both mulch- & rear-discharge capable, with a 390-litre Powered Grass-Collector available separately). It’s fitted with a massively powerful 726cc twin-cylinder Kawasaki engine that will prove cheap to run & quiet in operation; & it features an Operating Performance Indicator, which relays performance data on an easy-to-read LED dashboard. A foot-pedal operated hydrostatic transmission makes the tractor as easy to drive as an automatic car; while a ten-stage height-of-cut (adjustable between 10 & 101mm) ensures you’ll be able to manage different grass-lengths & weather conditions. An optional 107cm High-Grass Mulching Deck is also available. ...

All of Westwood’s British-built garden-tractors combine over 35-years of accumulated expertise with the latest technological advancements to produce a range of machines that are widely considered to be the finest of their type. This particular model is Westwood’s ultimate tractor, with its impressive construction-quality; employment of precision-machined components; & unbeatable cutting-capability working to make it the machine of choice for the most exacting domestic customers. The Westwood V25-50HE is characterised by its extra-wide 127cm Combi cutting-deck, which means that you can choose between rear-discharging or mulching cut grass. The Combi deck has been developed to mulch on a variety of surfaces, from thick, damp lawns; through to dry, scrubby areas. If you’d prefer to collect grass-cuttings, you can combine the Combi deck with a Powered Grass-Collector (PGC). Running off the PTO, this unit uses a number of brushes to drive clippings from the lawn surface directly into the cavernous 390-litre collector. Unlike conventional tractors, there’s no discharge-chute, so you can mow in damp weather without fear of clumping or blockages. The PGC couldn’t be easier to empty – simply back-up to your compost heap, push a button, & the bag is lifted & the compacted contents dumped. Power for the V25-50HE is supplied by a premium-quality 726cc twin-cylinder engine from the world-leading Japanese manufacturers Kawasaki. The engine’s twin-cylinder design ensures noise; vibration; & fuel-consumption are minimised. Giving you the choice of ten preset cutting-heights, ranging from 12mm at the lowest, through to 101mm at the highest, the Westwood V25-50HE Garden Tractor is flexible enough to cope with a wide variety of weather-conditions & grass-lengths. The deck is raised & lowered using a manual lever, but you can specify electric deck-lift if it’s required. The V25-50HE is equipped with an Operating Performance Indicator; a very high-specification feature whereby performance data from the integrated computer is relayed to the drive via a dashboard display. This makes it simple to keep track of variables like engine-speed; fuel-level; & fuel-economy. The Westwood power take-off makes it possible to run any of Westwood’s extensive range of powered accessories, including a broadcast-spreader; a chipper-shredder; & a scarifier. This ultra-versatile machine is also compatible with a 107cm High-Grass Mulching Deck, which is capable of clearing areas of dense weeds, tall nettles & established brush that would be too much for a handheld brushcutter. Other outstanding features include an infinitely-variable hydrostatic-transmission, which is controlled using a pair of foot-pedals for silky-smooth adjustment of the ground-speed; & an ergonomic driver’s seat, which can be adjusted for leg-room, in turn ensuring the task can be finished in comfort. A heavy-duty steel front-bumper works to protect key components from any accidental bumps or scrapes; while a parking-brake ensures you can leave the tractor unattended without fear of it rolling away. ...
