STIGA COMBI 166 Petrol Lawn Rider

A Compact Ride-On for Precise, Efficient Mowing

When your lawn has reached the size where a walk-behind mower feels like too much work, the STIGA Combi 166 Petrol Lawn Rider provides the ideal upgrade. Designed with a narrow body and remarkably tight turning radius, it moves easily through slim gateways and along confined garden paths. This ride-on mower’s small frame also makes steering around shrubs, trees, and other garden features straightforward, while a dependable petrol engine and high-quality combi deck ensure a consistently sharp and even cut.

Smooth and Intuitive Operation

The Combi 166 riding mower is equipped with pedal-operated hydrostatic transmission and a conveniently positioned speed variator, removing the need for clutch control or gear changes. This means you can simply press the pedal to match your speed to the conditions, with responsive handling that makes mowing feel fluid and natural. Rear-wheel drive offers dependable traction, even when the ground is uneven, so you can work with confidence across your entire lawn.

Reliable, Efficient Power

At the heart of the Combi 166 is a 224 cc STIGA ST 250 ES single-cylinder petrol engine, producing up to 3.6 kW (4.8 hp) at 2,450 rpm. It delivers dependable performance while keeping fuel consumption and emissions low, which helps both the environment and your running costs. The 3.8-litre fuel tank supports longer mowing sessions with fewer pitstops, and the impressively low noise level of only 87 dB(A) at the operator’s ear makes it a considerate choice of rider for suburban areas.

Versatile Cutting for a Perfect Finish

This ride-on mower includes a 66 cm (26-inch) cutting deck, housing a single precision blade. You have the flexibility to either collect clippings or mulch them back into the lawn. The 150-litre rear collector allows for extended mowing without frequent emptying. When mulching, the supplied plug finely shreds grass so it can break down naturally, feeding your soil while leaving an immaculate finish.

Adaptable to Seasonal Changes

With six-stage height adjustment, ranging from 30 mm to 76 mm, this compact rider allows you to adapt your cut to the season or your preferred lawn style. The mower’s ability to reverse while cutting, along with its compact turning radius, makes it particularly effective in complex garden layouts. Whichever setting you choose, the blade delivers a clean, even result that enhances your lawn’s appearance.

Ergonomic Design to Keep You Comfortable

Operator welfare has been carefully considered, with an ergonomically designed steering wheel and STIGA Comfort seat complete with safety contact breaker. The side grass deflector directs clippings away from the mower’s body, while a handy storage compartment means small tools or personal items are always within reach. Once mowing is complete, a built-in washing port makes deck cleaning simple with nothing more than a standard garden hose.

Why Buy Aspen 4-Stroke Fuel?

While standard unleaded petrol can be used, this mower performs at its best with Aspen 4-Stroke Pre-Mixed Fuel (available to buy from us separately). This cleaner-burning fuel helps protect the engine, reduces maintenance needs, and ensures smooth starting—even after the mower has been stored over winter.

Built for Durability, Backed by Warranty

Weighing 133 kg, the Combi 166 measures 1,825 mm (L) x 722 mm (W) x 1,047 mm (H). It has a reassuringly solid build that reflects STIGA’s decades of engineering expertise. Known for producing long-lasting garden machinery, the company backs this model with an extended five-year warranty (terms apply), so you can buy with confidence.
