The FD 280 is a high performance mower in terms of its quality cut and collection. The innovative cutting system “Grillo Overblow” produces an increased acceleration of the grass/air flow into the discharge chute which considerably raises its collection capabilities even in wet,damp conditions whilst at the same time keeping noise levels of the whole system very low. The front mounted cutter deck allows excellent visibility over the area to be cut. Control is via a steering wheel, the compact size and very tight turning circle makes the FD 280 an easy to operate machine making it ideal for the professional user operating in tight areas.
The FD 280’s cutter deck features twin contra-rotating blades (which are not timed) plus a third central blade, which is a unique feature on this type of mower. The cutter deck is front mounted therefore ensuring great visibility over the whole work area! It allows precise cutting under bushes or low-hanging branches, reducing the time spent finishing off with a strimmer. The deck’s robust double backed drive belt should not be damaged should stones or any obstructions be encountered when mowing.
Cutting width is 113 cm, the cutting height ranges from a minimum of 30 mm up to a maximum 90 mm and adjustment is made via a lever having 7 positions which is located next to the operators seat. The cutter deck can be converted into a mulch deck by using the optional kit which can be purchased separately.
