Comfortable Rider with smart collection system and easy emptying

Husqvarna Rider RC 318T is a versatile ride-on lawn mower with a high collection capacity to mow large gardens. Its innovative clog-free collection system feeds the grass clippings directly from the front-mounted cutting deck into the 300-litre bag. Automatic compaction allows more grass in the collector, so you can drive longer before emptying. Cutting height adjustment and emptying can be performed without getting off the machine, contributing to both comfort and efficient work. The cutting deck can be tilted 90 degrees to be easily accessible for service and cleaning.
