About the STIGA TORNADO 398 Petrol Lawn Tractor

Effortless Mowing with the STIGA Tornado 398 Ride-On Mower

The STIGA Tornado 398 ride-on mower is an efficient choice designed for managing medium to large gardens with ease. Equipped with a 432 cc STIGA ST 450 petrol engine, it provides a net power output of 7.5 kW at 2800 rpm. This reliable power ensures consistent performance, allowing you to achieve a professional-looking cut every time you mow. Suitable for areas up to 5000 m², this mower is perfect for homeowners who need to cover extensive lawns. With a comfortable, modern design, the Tornado 398 makes mowing a comfortable, user-friendly experience from start to finish.

Efficient and Adjustable Cutting System

Featuring a 98 cm cutting deck with two durable blades, this mower provides optimal width for efficient, even coverage. The cutting deck includes two anti-scalp wheels that protect your lawn from damage on uneven terrain. You can easily adjust the cutting height with a lever beside the seat, selecting from seven options between 25 mm and 80 mm. This range offers flexibility to suit different grass types and lawn conditions, delivering a smooth, tailored finish. The adjustable height settings ensure that your lawn always looks pristine and neatly trimmed.

Dual Mowing Options for Custom Results

The STIGA Tornado 398 offers two cutting methods, allowing you to customize your mowing to suit different needs. The side discharge feature releases grass clippings from the side, ideal for quick and easy cutting. For a more eco-friendly finish, you can use the optional STIGA Multiclip mulching system, sold separately. This system chops grass into fine particles that decompose, enriching your soil and helping retain moisture. These two options give you control over your lawn’s appearance and health, ensuring an attractive, well-maintained look.

Pedal-Operated Hydrostatic Transmission for Seamless Control

This mower features a pedal-operated hydrostatic transmission, making speed adjustments easy and smooth. Unlike traditional fixed-gear mowers, the hydrostatic transmission allows variable speeds, adapting to different terrains effortlessly. With rear-wheel drive, this transmission provides reliable stability while moving around garden obstacles or open areas. The pedal controls help you maintain a comfortable pace, giving you the precision needed to mow effectively. This combination of control and ease of use makes your mowing experience more enjoyable.

Reverse Mowing for Extra Coverage

One standout feature of the Tornado 398 is its ability to mow while reversing, enhancing its manoeuvrability. With the push of a button, you can engage reverse mowing to access tight spaces or tricky areas. This feature makes it simple to reach spots that are otherwise challenging without frequent repositioning. Mowing in reverse helps you cover every part of your lawn, creating a well-manicured finish.

Comfort-Focused Design for User-Friendly Operation

Designed for comfort, the Tornado 398 includes ergonomic features that make mowing easier and more enjoyable. The STIGA Classic steering wheel provides smooth handling, while the high-back seat supports you during long mowing sessions. The seat is adjustable, allowing you to find the most comfortable position while mowing. For added convenience, the mower includes a storage compartment and cup holder, keeping your essentials within easy reach. These thoughtful details enhance comfort, making lawn care less of a chore.

Simple Blade Engagement and Convenient Cleaning

Engaging the blades on the Tornado 398 is quick and easy with its electric button-operated clutch. This function lets you start or stop the blades at the touch of a button, transitioning seamlessly between mowing and transport. When it comes to cleaning, the mower includes a washing link for efficient deck maintenance. Attaching a water hose to this link makes cleaning simple, removing grass clippings and keeping your mower in optimal condition. Regular cleaning helps maintain performance, preventing buildup that can affect efficiency.

Durability and Safety Features for Reliable Use

Durability is a priority for the Tornado 398, which features a sturdy front bumper that protects the mower from impacts. This bumper is especially useful when mowing near obstacles, offering added protection against potential damage. Safety features like the seat safety contact breaker provide extra peace of mind, enhancing user protection during operation. Designed for resilience, this mower is built to withstand regular use, ensuring a dependable lawn care solution.

Conclusion

The STIGA Tornado 398 ride-on mower is a premium choice for those needing power, versatility, and comfort. Its robust engine, adjustable cutting options, and comfort-focused design make it ideal for large gardens. The Tornado 398 is built to deliver efficient, precise lawn care, making your mowing routine easier and more enjoyable.
