Built to last and boasting high-specification features throughout, the 500 AL is a premium model within Masport's extensive lawn mower line-up equipped with a top-end Briggs & Stratton engine, an ultra-tough aluminium deck, 4-in-1 cutting option, low vibration handlebar and adjustable wheel bearings.
The mower has a mid-sized 46cm (18") deck made from aluminium which combines light weight, durability and rust-resistance. It employs the Masport Quickcut™ blade system which features swing tips at the ends of the blade designed to protect the crankshaft from damage should the swing tip blades strike a solid object. Quickcut™ blade technology reduces mowing time by around 15% and optimises performance in terms of both collection and mulching.
Masport combo catch and mulch mowers are designed to have a special mulch plug inserted when mulching. This plug must be fitted correctly, snug and locked in with the main flap closed down on it. This plug seals off the rear discharge area for the high-arch chassis and special blades to recut your clippings and feed them back into your lawn, saving on water, fertiliser and time emptying the catcher.
The HDPE (high-density polyethylene) two-tone plastic grass box has a generous 46 litre capacity. Mow without the catcher, and avoid the messy grass clumps. The patented Masport Smartchute® will side discharge a clean spread of clippings as you mow to leave your lawn looking neat and tidy. Just engage the unique feature and begin mowing.
You can be sure to be ready for every eventuality in terms of grass and weather conditions with the centrally adjustable height of cut. Using a single lever, the cutting height can be set as low as 12mm right up to 70mm.
The push-propelled Masport 500 AL is highly manoeuvrable, powered by a premium, easy-starting 163cc Briggs & Stratton 675 EXi OHV 4-stroke engine. The Zone start handlebar helps to reduce back strain when pulling on the recoil starter as it is located higher up on the handlebar. The low-vibration handlebar has PVC grip and OPC controls, comfortable upturned upper handle, reinforced lower handle for added strength and cam locks for quick-release fold down.
A handy deck wash port makes it easy to keep the underside of the mower clean.

ABOUT MASPORT.....
Benefits of owning a Masport rotary mower
Masport mowers have been designed to meet the demands of the toughest of lawns. The climate in New Zealand can be warm and wet…not to dissimilar to British weather conditions, and as such Masport are very much in tune with consumer’s needs. Damp and lush grass growth brings out the best in Masport rotary mowers. Aided by a wide ‘rear ejection’ channel to ease the flow of cut grass into the catcher, Masport rotary mowers remain industry leaders in performance.
Many of the models are fitted with ‘Smart Chutes’ allowing you to easily switch from collecting to side or rear discharge. You can mulch with many of them also. ‘Quickcut’, Bar Blade or Cylinder cutting systems give you a varied range, and versatility you come to expect from an industry leader.
You demand high performance to suit your lifestyle and budget. Masport delivers.
