When you hear the name "Honda", your first thought might be small, sporty cars. While there are Honda cars on the road, this Honda name applies to outboard motors, generators, tillers, water pumps, snow blowers, push lawn mowers, riding lawn mowers, and more.
Honda designs and manufactures a line of riding lawn mowers that is considered to be superior in build. The company offers riders that are built with their own hydrostatic drive, so, that no matter how fast or slow you decide to travel, your yard will be cut evenly and attractively. A hydrostatic drive is controlled by a single pedal. Therefore, the absence of a clutch offers two advantages: there is no clutch to have to repeatedly push, and, there is no clutch to maintain, repair or replace.
Standard features on a Honda Riding Lawn Mower also include ergonomically - designed seats that are built with lumbar supports; powerful, air - cooled engines; wide rubber tires that help protect your yard; and a separate mowing deck from the chassis so the deck can glide along evenly over bumpy terrain. The cutting blades under the decks of the Honda Riders are also designed with uplifting ends that help send the grass clippings to the collection bag. These riding mowers are also built to be quiet, and environmentally - safe during operation, easy to start, and stylish. Honda's engines pass the strict emission standards of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Just like a Honda car, Honda Riding Lawn Mowers are compact, and are easy to maneuver around trees, flower beds, patios, swimming pools, and any other obstacles in your yard. This can significantly cut down on the amount of push - mowing you have to do. Although they are small enough to drive around obstructions, and smoothly mow small yards in a hurry, they are also built tough enough to mow larger yards too. These mowers are easy to operate, as well as relatively simple to maintain. They run on gasoline alone, so there is no time- consuming, messy mixing of gasoline and oil involved. And, should your rider need service, the company offers an outstanding five year warranty.
In order to complement their line of riding lawn mowers, Honda also offers an extensive line of accessories. The "Grass Bag Kit", for example, will easily allow you to pick up grass clippings as you mow across your yard. The collection bag is ventilated and is designed so it's easy for the operator to empty and reinstall it onto the rider. Honda also has an innovative indicator system that tells the operator when the grass collection bag is full. There is also an optional leaf shredder attachment that will chop up the leaves so they don't take up as much space in the grass bag. Less - space used means that the operator won't have to stop and empty the bag as often.
If your grass has gotten out of control, or, if the grass is wet, then bagging it is the answer. But, if you decide not to capture the grass clippings, there is also a "Riding Mower Mulching Kit" that Honda makes available for certain models of their riding lawn mowers. The mulch kit turns a side - discharge or a rear - bagging rider into a mulcher. A "mulching plug" fits securely into the side or back discharge area. The single blade of the mulcher then chops cut grass up and turns it into mulch. The mulch, in turn, makes its way down into the grass, decomposes, fertilizes, and returns precious nutrients to the soil.
