About the STIGA TORNADO 5108 Petrol Lawn Tractor
STIGA Tornado 5108 Petrol Lawn Tractor – Built for Power, Comfort, and Lasting Performance
When it comes to maintaining large lawns, paddocks, or mixed terrain, the STIGA Tornado 5108 Petrol Lawn Tractor delivers a perfect balance of strength, efficiency, and ease of use. Designed for demanding work in expansive gardens of up to 1.5 acres (6,000 m²), its intelligent design and expert engineering ensure every mowing session runs smoothly and enjoys pristine results.
Impressive Engine Power and Smooth Handling
Beneath its sturdy bonnet, the Tornado 5108 is driven by a 452 cc STIGA ST 500 single-cylinder engine, combining impressive output with remarkable fuel economy. Capable of generating 11.3hp (8.4 kW at 2,800 rpm), it easily handles tall, thick, or damp grass while maintaining steady performance. The steel cylinder sleeve enhances durability, while the overhead valve (OHV) layout keeps fuel consumption and noise levels low, offering dependable levels of power.
The 6-litre fuel tank provides ample capacity for extended use, allowing you to mow large areas without interruption. The hydrostatic transmission delivers seamless control, giving you variable speed adjustment without manual gear shifting. This makes for an effortless, responsive driving experience—ideal when navigating around flowerbeds or trees. Despite its power, the Tornado 5108 operates quietly—just 87 dB(A) measured at the driver’s ear, making it a quiet performer for its class.
Versatile Cutting System for Superior Results
With a large 43-inch (108 cm) twin-blade cutting deck, the Tornado 5108 ride on mower covers more ground in less time. Its electromagnetic blade clutch engages smoothly, providing an instant start to the cutting process. This lawn tractor’s design ensures an even, high-quality finish across a range of grass conditions, from lush lawns to rougher paddocks.
Operators can select from seven cutting heights between 25 mm and 80 mm, tailoring the finish to suit the season and growth rate. The side-discharge system makes quick work of longer grass, efficiently dispersing clippings without slowing or clogging. For those who prefer a cleaner look, STIGA’s Multiclip mulching system is included as standard. This finely shreds clippings and distributes them evenly across the turf, naturally feeding the lawn and encouraging thicker, healthier grass over time.
Comfort and Control, Every Step of the Way
Mowing large areas doesn’t have to be tiring, and the Tornado 5108 ensures operator comfort from start to finish. The STIGA New Comfort seat offers excellent support, featuring a built-in safety contact breaker for added peace of mind. Paired with the ergonomic STIGA New Comfort steering wheel, the whole layout encourages confident handling and easy manoeuvrability, even on slopes or uneven ground.
Vibrations have been carefully minimised, recorded at just 1.2 m/s² in the operating position, helping to prevent driver fatigue during longer mowing sessions. The reverse mowing function adds another layer of flexibility, allowing you to trim tight corners and reverse neatly from confined spaces without stopping the blades.
Built Strong with Useful Features
Durability is central to every STIGA design, and the Tornado 5108 garden tractor is no exception. The steel front axle is engineered to withstand years of regular use, while 18-inch rear wheels provide stable traction and smooth handling across uneven or sloping terrain. Smaller anti-scalp wheels ensure that delicate lawns remain protected, preventing the deck from grazing the surface.
When the light begins to fade, LED headlights light up your path, making it safe to continue mowing or transporting the tractor at dusk. The Tornado 5108 also features a front bumper for added protection, a storage compartment and cup holder for convenience, and a washing link that allows for effortless cleaning by connecting a standard garden hose to the deck. A trailer hitch kit and battery charger are supplied as standard too, extending the lawn tractor’s usefulness beyond mowing duties.
Compact yet robust, the STIGA Tornado 5108 Petrol Lawn Tractor measures 1,726 mm in length, 1,315 mm in width, and 1,100 mm in height, weighing 168 kg. Its proportions make it agile enough for residential gardens yet big enough for more demanding environments.
