solo by AL-KO T 15-103 HD-A Comfort 103cm/42" Hydrostatic Rear Collect Lawn Tractor

Description

The new generation of solo by AL-KO Comfort pro lawn tractors sport a fresh look thanks to the latest, innovative bonnet design. Quality and longevity are ensured with this machine thanks to the manufacturer's key objectives; "engineered in Germany" and "made in Austria".

With a cutting width of 103cm (42"), this rear collect lawn tractor is perfectly suited to mow large gardens up to 7,000 square metres efficiently and quickly. The T 15-103 HD-A lawn tractor is powered by a robust and low-vibration 7.5kW AL-KO Pro 450 engine. Refuelling of the seven litre petrol tank is convenient thanks to the external filler neck. Featuring a special, patented free-wheel mechanism, the accelerator pedal is switched off when braking which protects the transmission and increases the service life. The cutting height can be adjusted in six steps from 30mm to 80mm with one hand, which should suit a variety of mowing conditions.

Other advantages in terms of comfort are the easily accessible controls, the stepless foot hydrostatic transmission and the low step-through design, including plenty of legroom and raised seating position. The MaxAirflow technology ensures optimal grass transport into the grass catcher for high efficiency and few empty runs when working with the lawn tractor. When the grass collector is full, an audible signal indicates that the box should be emptied in good time. Thanks to the improved frame, the collection box has a new pivot point, which in turn means simplified emptying - while increasing the capacity at the same time. Hooking and unhooking is also much easier.

An high performance mulch plug (not included) enables a straightforward switch to mulching mode by inserting the optional accessory into the rear discharge channel without the use of tools. The process of mulching cuts up the grass clippings very finely and disperses them neatly and evenly over the surface of the lawn so you will hardly notice them, resulting in improved soil as the clippings decompose and return vital nutrients back into your lawn.

The large 18" rear tyres ensure good traction and good progress on any surface and in any terrain. The durable mower deck made of sheet steel includes two blades for a clean cut of grass and can be removed in a few simple steps, ideal for cleaning and maintenance.

The torsion-resistant, durable and very stable frame withstands the heaviest workloads with sophisticated build quality to protect moving parts.

Fitted with an optional tow hitch, a range of tow-behind lawn care attachments and trailers can turn the T 15-103 HD-A lawn tractor into a year-round workhorse.

Thanks to its oustanding design and striking appearance, combined with the clear lines and excellent workmanship, solo by AL-KO lawn tractors are eye-catchers for years to come.

THE ALL NEW TRACTOR

The Upgrades

	New modern bonnet design The Comfort bonnet has been redesigned following customer feedback. solo by AL-KO has developed an entirely new appearance inspired by the automotive industry. The updated design is more modern and stylish. It's not just the appearance that has been improved, but also the mounting of the bonnet. The new design feels more stable and rigid when opening. The striking look, the clear lines and the excellent workmanship make solo by AL-KO lawn tractors eye-catchers - and that for a long time.
	More sleek and powerful headlights (optional) Slimline LED headlights are 10X more powerful, curving around the bonnet.
	New collector mounting The collector has a completely new mounting structure further away from the lawn tractor. This allows quicker and easier mounting and dismounting of the collector. A new dual locking mechanism will firmly hold the collector in place in all situations.
	Redesigned larger 250 litre collector All Comfort rear collector tractors now feature a 250 litre grass box with telescopic lever. This is now standard across the range (up from 220L) and provides an 11% increase in capacity, giving the new Comfort lawn tractor one of the biggest grass boxes in its class! Acoustic level indicator The large-volume collection box with an audible filling level signal alerts the user as soon as the collection device is full.
	Efficient mowing Thanks to the MaxAirflow technology, the 250 litre grass catcher box is filled efficiently and it takes less time to empty it. Redesigned geormetry makes emptying 20% easier When the grass collector is full, thanks to a new mounting geometry the force required to empty it is 20% less than the previous version, even with a larger collection capacity.
	Precise steering and lawn-friendly wide tyres The extra large tyres ensure optimal traction on any surface and therefore form fewer ruts.
