Key Features
With any lawnmower, there are typically a number of key features, and we have shown those below.
Cutting Width
This is the width of grass that a mower can cut with one single pass. The width primarily determines the speed at which you can cut your grass at. The larger the width the quicker you can cut your grass, as you will have to do fewer passes. This model has one of the highest cutting widths at 45 cms, which is ideal for small to larger sized lawns.
Cutting Height
Most mowers will have a range of cutting heights. This 750 model has an integrated system that makes changing the cutting height of your mower easier than ever. A simple one button operation changes the height of cut from 25 to 80 mm. (7 positions) It also has the Bosch ErgoSlide system that allows you to manoeuvre this mower with ease and achieve your task quickly, while being kinder to your back.
Quiet and Powerful
