About the HONDA HRX 476 HY Petrol Lawn Mower (self-propelled)
Honda HRX 476 HY: Smart Mowing with Effortless Control
If you’re after a reliable, powerful, and easy-to-use mower for a medium-sized lawn, the Honda HRX 476 HY is a smart purchase. Crafted with precision and backed by Honda’s market-leading warranty, it combines fuel-efficient performance with a host of user-friendly features. A firm favourite with seasoned gardeners, this Honda lawn mower is smooth to operate, simple to control, and provides a consistently clean cut.
Designed for Medium-Sized Gardens
Ideal for lawns up to 1,200m² (around two tennis courts in size), the HRX 476 HY features a 47cm (19-inch) deck, which makes light work of cutting grass in large, open areas while still being agile enough to navigate around trees and borders. The 70-litre grass bag holds a generous volume of clippings, so you can spend more time mowing and less time emptying. Whether you’re tidying up a regularly mown lawn or managing more unruly patches, this machine is up to the task.
Lightweight Deck with Lasting Strength
At the heart of this Honda self propelled lawn mower is a Polystrong® cutter deck. Made from an advanced polymer material, it is tough, lightweight, and resistant to corrosion, denting, and UV damage. That means the mower stays looking good and performing well long term. With a modest 44kg dry weight, it’s easy to handle but robust enough to be a credible alternative to a metal machine. There are seven cutting height positions, ranging from 25 to 79mm.
Power and Performance in One Premium Package
Beneath the hood is a 167cc GCVX170 OHC 4-stroke engine that offers class-leading torque, smooth operation, and enhanced fuel efficiency. Starting is quick and consistent, even after the winter break. The Euro 5-compliant design meets modern emissions standards while still delivering 3.6kW of power. The sound level is just 94dB(A)—relatively quiet for a petrol mower.
The Variable Hydrostatic Drive System
The Honda HRX 476 HY Petrol Lawn Mower features a variable hydrostatic drive system, allowing you to control your mowing speed with high levels of precision. Adjustments are made via a simple lever on the handle, giving you stepless speed changes up to 1.4 metres per second. Whether you’re taking your time around borders or moving quickly across open ground, this Honda lawn mower effortlessly adapts to your pace.
Clever Blade Control with Roto-Stop®
Roto-Stop® adds a further layer of convenience and safety by letting you stop the blades without shutting off the engine. That means you can empty the grass bag, cross gravel, or move obstacles with ease—without needing to restart the machine. It’s a time-saving feature that both professionals and homeowners will appreciate.
Versamow™ for Flexible Grass Management
This Honda lawn mower includes the company’s innovative Versamow™ system, offering complete control over how you handle your clippings. Choose to bag, mulch, or do a combination of both using a simple lever. If you’re keen to feed nutrients back into your lawn or reduce green waste, mulching becomes an easy option with no extra tools required.
A Warranty That Reflects Honda Quality
Honda Mowers UK come with a market-leading 7-year domestic warranty covering both parts and labour, with no drop in cover value over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I mulch with this mower, or is it bag-only?
Yes, this model features Honda’s Versamow™ variable mulching system, which allows you to mulch, bag, or do both—no additional kit is needed.
Is the Honda HRX 476 HY easy to push and control?
Absolutely. It is a self-propelled mower, so you don’t need to push, just steer. The hydrostatic drive system gives you full control over speed, so you can always go at your own pace.
Maintain Your Honda Products Properly
To keep your Honda petrol machinery running at its best, use standard pump fuels such as SP95, SP98, or SP95-E10.
While Honda doesn’t supply alkylate fuel, its use is permitted.
It’s important to always add a fuel stabiliser, especially if you’re storing fuel for more than a few weeks, as this helps prevent engine issues and keeps the fuel fresh.
Fuel should be stored in small amounts (no more than 5 litres) in a sealed container, away from heat and sunlight. Use within one month unless treated with a stabiliser.
At the end of the season—or if the machine won’t be used for a while—it’s recommended to drain the fuel tank and follow the storage advice in the user manual.

This is NEARLY a perfect motor mower for the small/medium garden. There are a couple of design issues which have prevented me from awarding it five stars. The first (and most significant) is the somewhat convoluted method to engage the rotostop mechanism. In order to engage the cutter it is necessary to hold down a small ‘lever’ as the cutter mechanism is engaged. Once the cutter has been engaged the small lever may be released and the main drive engaged- if the main drive is disengaged (when e.g. changing direction etc) it is necessary to engage (1) the rotostop control, (2) the cutter lever and (3) the main drive lever to restart mowing! At least the engine does not require to be restarted! The second minor issue relates to the starting cable. Rather than simply operating directly from the engine, the starter cord is routed through a couple of fixings to a location near the handle. The cord easily gets caught up in any overhanging part of shrubs if mowing close to borders.
Despite these issues, it is a fine mower! Light and easily manoeuvred. It collects damp grass without clogging the discharge shoot and the grass box is easy to empty. I would happily buy this mower again!
