1 - GRASS COLLECTION SYSTEM (on standard equipment)

The CastelGarden XCD 150 HD riding-on mower can collect grass clippings directly into the 200 L grass collector. The grass collector emptying system is very simple: simply pull the dedicated handle inside the basket, to empty it effortlessly wherever you want.

The grass collector is easy removable: simply lift it upwards to remove it from its housing.

2- MULCHING CUTTING SYSTEM (optional):

this system allows cutting grass without catching it inside the collector and crushing the clippings into a fine powder before dropping them on the lawn. This grass mowing system allows crushing grass clippings and dropping them on the ground. This eliminates the problem of its disposal. Moreover, grass clippings will break down into nutrients and water for the lawn, thus ensuring a perfectly balanced biological cycle.

- However, it is worth remembering that, to ensure the greatest mulching results, the lawn should be irrigated and the grass needs cutting at least once a week.

- The conversion from one system to another is easy and requires no tools. Simply fit the suitable mulching plug to the rear of the riding-on mower.

Thanks to the hydrostatic transmission, driving the riding-on mower will be very easy.

Operation is very easy: The forward, reverse and braking pedals are located on the hydrostatic footboard. Depending on the pressure exerted with the foot on one of the respective pedals, the speed will increase or decrease.

- The hydrostatic transmission is by far the most modern and functional (although more expensive) compared to the traditional manual transmission gears. Whenever the speed is changed, the hydrostatic gearbox forces the operator to stop the unit, change gear, release the clutch and re-start the power barrow at the desired speed. In case of frequent speed variations (e.g. In gardens with trees, vases or other types of obstacles) the traditional gear transmission wouldn’t be practical at all.

The hydrostatic transmission, on the other hand, allows immediate speed changes, without ever stopping and in a totally automatic manner, simply by varying the pressure on the drive pedal of this transmission.

The XDC 150 HD riding-on mower features a 84 cm large cutting deck, with two finned blades and asynchronous rotation.

The riding-on mower cutting deck is tilting: it adapts easily to the undulations of the ground (as long as they are not overly harsh).

Electromagnetic blade engagement: This system avoids the manual shifting by means the standard lever placed on many types of riding-on mowers, and it works thanks to an electromagnetic clutch which allows an easy and fast engagement of the blades.

The available cutting heights are 7 and can be conveniently adjusted by means of a side lever. Height options can vary from a minimum 25 to a maximum of 80 mm.

The cutting deck also features 2 non-marking wheels and a washing joint, for a quick and practical cleaning of the blades by simply connecting a water hose.
