Cobra Fortis 20FTB 51cm/20" Fine Turf Self-Propelled Petrol Cylinder Lawn Mower

Description

Tailored for fine turn sports pitches and perfect lawns, the Cobra Fortis 20FTB is an impeccably balanced cylinder mower equipped with a ten-bladed cutting cylinder, a grooved front roller and turf rake ensuring optimal performance for meticulous lawn care.

The Fortis fine turf range stands unrivalled when it comes to professional cylinder mowers where a high quality finish and long lasting, defined stripes are a priority. Crafted with precision, the Cobra Fortis fine turf mower is the epitome of excellence for large lawns and sports pitches, and the ideal choice for serious home gardeners, semi-professionals and sports groundscare.

The Cobra Fortis 20FTB features a generous 51cm (20") cutting width and ten-bladed precision-ground cutting cylinder which achieves an enviable bowling green finish with a scissor-like cutting action. This versatile lawn mower benefits from an interchangeable cassette system to allow the cutting cylinder to be quickly removed and replaced with a range of optional lawn care accessories.

The combination of a grooved steel front roller and cast, ribbed, split-differential rear roller helps to lay down those traditional stripes that are the hallmark of a cylinder lawn mower. If your lawn incorporates flower beds, the rollers also let you overhang the lawn edge slightly so you can mow right up to the edge without the risk of the blades scalping the lawn. The cutting height can be adjusted from an exceptionally low 3mm up to 30mm via a single screw so you can select the ideal mowing height for your chosen area and the conditions.

The front-mounted grass box has a large 75 litre capacity and provides efficient debris collection and easy emptying. A turf rake is also included to help improve cutting performance by lifting the grass blades resulting in a cleaner and even more precise cut. Convenient folding handles allow for easy transportation and compact storage.

Powered by a reliable 4hp Briggs & Stratton XR550 Series™ engine which runs on the latest E10 fuel, the self-propelled Fortis 20FTB has an easy recoil start and heavy-duty drive system. The Fortis 20FTB also benefits from blade brake clutch (known as BBC) which disengages the blade rotation without stopping the engine, saving you from switching off the mower and starting the engine again and again during a single session. This feature also allows you to move the lawn mower between areas of grass without the blades turning, which comes in handy when you need to cross a gravel driveway or a paved path, empty the collection box or wish to stop mowing to remove some obstacles on the way.

If you strive perfection by regularly cutting your ornamental or domestic lawn, or are responsible for maintaining a fine turf sports pitch, then the Cobra Fortis 20FTB will prove to be a quality cylinder mower that delivers an immaculate finish, with the versatility to carry out a wide range of essential turf maintenance tasks throughout the year.

Lawn care attachments which can be fitted in place of the standard 10-bladed cutting unit include a verticut, scarifier, aerator, dethatcher, aerator, dethatcher and lawn brush. The ability to remove the blade cassette also assists in the easy and economic maintenance of the lawn mower.

Features

	Precision Ten-Bladed Cutting System For an even lower 3mm cut on your lawn Each fine turf model is fitted with a finely-crafted 10-bladed cutting cylinder featuring razor-sharp blades. Made of hardened ground steel, the 10-bladed cylinder cartridge delivers an even more precise low cut of 3.0mm that looks superb and promotes a healthier lawn. Ideal for regular mowing of the lawn and for creating that bowling green finish.
	Grooved Front Roller and Turf Rake As Standard Fitted with the lawn rake as standard, the Fortis fine turf cylinder mower removes lifeless debris and moss, while simultaneously lifting the lateral grass blades, thereby enhancing the mower's cutting performance to an impressive level. The grooved roller improves the mowing of very low and dense lawns by helping to lift the grass before the cutting blades pass over it. As the front grooved roller has less surface area in contact with the ground, it puts more pressure on the strands of grass, which lifts those that would otherwise go undisturbed by the flat cylinder, and presents them to the bottom blade. The indentation on the roller also helps you to maintain the direction when mowing. This is very useful if you want to achieve perfectly straight lines.
	Expertly Powered by Briggs & Stratton Engines Powerful, High Performance Engines The Cobra Fortis 20FTB is expertly powered by a B&S XR550 engine which takes lawn mower power to the next level. Powerful engines are an essential part of maintaining a beautiful and healthy lawn. Briggs & Stratton engines are not only easy to start, but provide all the necessary power and speed to cut your grass with ease and precision.
	Heavy-Duty Drive System Improved Performance and Durability Cobra's heavy-duty drive system on the Fortis range offers improved performance and increased durability. Perfect for use with the Fortis interchangeable cartridge system giving ease of user maintenance and adjustment.
	Versatile Cartridge System Six Additional Interchangeable Cartridges The Fortis lawncare cartridge system is a versatile system available for all Fortis lawn mower models. Cartridges are fitted with the minimum of effort including the standard six-bladed cutting cylinder, 10-bladed cutting cylinder, scarifier, aerator, detatcher, verticutter and lawn brush cartridges that will keep your lawn looking its finest throughout the year. Whatever the garden task, the Fortis cartridge range will have a tool to complete the job.
	For a Beautiful Striped Finish to your Lawn Split Cast Rear Roller for the Perfect Stripes The heavy-duty split rear roller not only produces a striped finish to your lawn but also offers improved maoeuvrability and reduced lawn scalping, giving an accurate cutting height and levelling of your lawn.
