solo by AL-KO T 15-95 HD-A Premium Hydrostatic Rear Collect Lawn Tractor

The AL-KO T 15-95 HD-A is the entry-level model in solo by AL-KO's Premium rear collect lawn tractor line-up now boasting an even more impressive design, increased speed, memory function for cutting height adjustment and improved belt guidance.

Powered by a 452cc / 7.7kW AL-KO Pro 450 engine with gear oil pump for a longer service life, the T 15-95 HD-A Premium is equipped with a 95cm (37.4") twin-bladed cutter deck with 3-in-1 functionality and is ideal for lawns around 7,000 square metres in size. The ball bearing mounted, vibration damped mowing deck is designed for mowing close to edges. A fully welded 3mm thick steel frame and premium front bumper guarantees a robust and durable garden tractor that can handle any mowing task.

After a development period of several years, the solo by AL-KO lawn tractors feature the latest technology, high ergonomics and quality German engineering, and sport a racy red and black livery. The flat-bottomed steering wheel, bucket-style driver's seat and external fuel tank flap evoke thoughts of premium automotive brands, whilst providing high user comfort and unrivalled ease of operation. An optimised gear ratio in the transmission enables a higher speed, which is efficiently passed on to the rear axle thanks to the optimised belt routing. This not only means faster driving, but also faster mowing - for maximum efficiency when gardening.

Effortless control is ensured thanks to the side-by-side hydrostatic pedals for forward and reverse which make precise speed and direction control a breeze.

AL-KO's 3-in-1 function gives the user the option of either rear discharging, collecting or mulching the grass clippings (with the tool-less mulching kit included). The capacious 310 litre grass catcher can be conveniently emptied using the telescopic lever from the driver's seat. An optional expansion pack is available which allows electrical emptying of the grass box at the press of a button (see accessories below). The cutting height can be centrally adjusted through seven stages between 30mm and 90mm to suit conditions and the desired lawn finish. Avoid unwanted mowing too high or too low with AL-KO's innovative height of cut memory function.

The solo by AL-KO T 15-95 HD-A lawn tractor is packed with an array of superior and intuitive features which turn a functional garden tool into an emotive driving experience. Low foot rests with premium non-slip foot plates and plenty of legroom ensure easy mounting and dismounting and a low centre of gravity with no danger of tipping. In addition, all controls can easily be reached from the operator's seat, meaning there is nothing to prevent you from enjoying stress-free mowing. Wide tyres protect the lawn and ensure optimum traction and driving comfort.

Other key features include optimum seat position, conveniently positioned parking brake, easy access to the battery for charging, integrated toolbar, maintenance free rods for throttle and brake, and a tool-less bonnet for easy maintenance. Powerful headlights will even allow you to mow longer into dark evenings and in poor visibility. The bright LED system with its bright LED strips as permanent daytime running lights are particularly striking.

A great all-rounder with excellent premium features, the integral tow hitch extends the use of the Solo by AL-KO T 15-95 HD-A garden tractor through all seasons with the addition of a range of trailed accessories.
