About the STIGA TORNADO 398 Petrol Lawn Tractor

Effortless Mowing with the STIGA Tornado 398 Ride-On Mower

The STIGA Tornado 398 ride-on mower combines powerful performance with exceptional versatility, making it ideal for medium to large gardens. Equipped with a robust 432 cc STIGA ST 450 petrol engine, it delivers a net power output of 7.5 kW at 2800 rpm, ensuring reliable and consistent cutting power. Designed to manage areas up to 5000 m², this ride-on mower is perfect for homeowners seeking efficiency and a clean, precise cut. With a modern, user-friendly design, the Tornado 398 delivers a comfortable mowing experience, allowing you to keep your lawn in pristine condition.

Efficient and Adjustable Cutting System

The Tornado 398 features a 98 cm cutting deck with two high-quality blades, providing an optimal width for efficiently covering large areas. The two anti-scalp wheels help protect your lawn, preventing uneven patches on bumpy terrain. The cutting height can be adjusted manually through seven settings, ranging from 25 mm to 80 mm, offering flexibility to match your desired lawn appearance. The cutting deck is specifically engineered for smooth, clean cuts, ensuring your lawn maintains a uniform and healthy look. The convenient manual lever, located beside the driving seat, allows quick adjustments as you mow.

Dual Mowing Options for Custom Results

This versatile mower offers two cutting methods: side discharge and an optional STIGA Multiclip mulching system. The side discharge feature is ideal for general mowing, releasing grass clippings from the side as you mow. If you prefer a nutrient-rich finish for your lawn, the optional mulching kit (sold separately) is a valuable addition. The Multiclip mulching system chops the grass into fine particles, which decompose and nourish the lawn, helping it retain moisture and stay green and healthy. This dual-option system lets you tailor your lawn care to suit seasonal or personal preferences.

Pedal-Operated Hydrostatic Transmission for Seamless Control

The STIGA Tornado 398 ride-on mower is equipped with a pedal-operated hydrostatic transmission, ensuring smooth and effortless movement. Unlike traditional mowers with fixed gears, this transmission provides variable speed control, allowing you to adjust speed as needed while you mow. With rear-wheel drive and intuitive pedal operation, navigating around obstacles becomes effortless. Whether you’re covering open areas or manoeuvring around garden features, the hydrostatic transmission offers optimal control and stability, providing an enjoyable, hassle-free mowing experience.

Reverse Mowing Capability for Added Flexibility

A convenient feature of the Tornado 398 is its ability to mow in reverse, enhancing its manoeuvrability and coverage. With the push of a button, you can mow in reverse, making it easy to tackle hard-to-reach areas or narrow spaces. This functionality is especially useful in gardens with complex layouts, as it reduces the need for constant repositioning.

Comfort-Focused Design for a Pleasant Mowing Experience

Comfort is a key feature of the Tornado 398. Its ergonomic STIGA Classic steering wheel and high-back seat provide ample support, making long mowing sessions more enjoyable. The seat is adjustable, and it features a safety contact breaker to enhance safety during operation. Additionally, a storage compartment and cup holder are conveniently located within reach, allowing you to keep essentials nearby.

Easy Blade Engagement and Cleaning Features

Engaging the blades is simple with the electric button-operated clutch. At the push of a button, you can activate or deactivate the blades, enabling quick transitions between mowing and transport. When it comes to cleaning, the Tornado 398 is designed to be easy to maintain. The washing link allows you to attach a water hose for quick and effective cleaning of the cutting deck. Regular cleaning helps maintain the mower’s performance and prevents grass buildup, keeping it in top condition.

Durability and Safety Enhancements

Durability is built into the Tornado 398, with a sturdy front bumper that protects the mower from unexpected impacts. This front bumper offers extra assurance when mowing close to obstacles or uneven terrain. With built-in safety features, such as the seat safety contact breaker, this mower prioritizes user protection.

Conclusion

The STIGA Tornado 398 ride-on mower is a high-performance choice for those seeking power, versatility, and comfort. With a strong engine, dual mowing options, and a comfortable, safety-focused design, this mower is built to make lawn care efficient and enjoyable. Transform your lawn with the precision and convenience of the STIGA Tornado 398, designed to keep your lawn looking pristine season after season.
