Weibang Virtue 53 ASD BBC LV 3-Speed Self-Propelled Petrol Lawn Mower

Description

More than capable of mowing large areas of up to approximately 3000 square metres, the Weibang Virtue 53 ASD BBC LV is suited to demanding conditions when perfect cutting results are required quickly and efficiently during day long use. A self-propelled lawn mower, the Weibang Virtue 53 ASD BBC LV lawn mower is shaft driven and features a three-speed professional-grade gear box. It is equipped with Weibang's VCT engine which features dramatically lower vibration levels with up to 56% reductions across the range from previous models.

A key feature of the top-of-the-range Weibang Virtue 53 ASD BBC LV lawn mower is the blade brake clutch which disengages the drive to the blade as the operator releases the safety handle. This allows the operator to leave the engine running, but unattended, without the blade rotating while travelling over non-grassed areas or emptying the bag.

This lawn mower is powered by a 196cc / 3.5kW engine boasting Weibang's vibration control technology (VCT) producing an incredibly low emission rate of 3.2m/s² which means it will take 19 hours 31 minutes to reach ELV (exposure limit value).

The robust 53cm (21") cutter deck is constructed of aluminium which provides durability and corrosion-resistance for a long service life. The cutting height can be set centrally through 11 positions from 25mm to 76mm. The double ball bearing wheels make mowing large lawn areas easy and efficient.

The Weibang Virtue 53 ASD BBC LV lawn mower cuts and collects the grass clippings into a spacious 70 litre airflow fabric grass bag. The heavy-duty, ergonomic handles have soft grip with conveniently positioned controls. The handlebars are fully adjustable and fold for easy transportation and more compact storage in an upright position.

What are the benefits of vibration control technology?

Lower vibration

All VCT engines feature dramatically lower vibration levels with up to 56% reductions across the range.

All day use across the range

Thanks to the lower vibration levels all VCT models can be used for substantially longer by the operator, in fact operators can use machines for up to 424% longer than the previous version.

Lower cost

By taking a different approach to other manufacturers Weibang has avoided having to add additional components and consumable items, meaning parts stock remains the same for the range, and operators do not have the added maintenance costs of new rubber AV mounts.

Tried & tested

All VCT engines are based on the exceptional WEIBANG X series belt and shaft drive models, which have been in the market for over 10 years worldwide. A testament to this is that Weibang has had fewer warranty claims for the WEIBANG X series than all the other engines they use put together.

100% spares parts support

By utilising a single engine brand, Weibang can control the supply of spare parts, ensuring parts are always in stock to minimize downtime for commercial operators.

Vibration Results

This table shows the latest engine vibration figures as well as the increase in daily usage before reaching ELV (Exposure Limit Value). All models with VCT now exceed eight hours use per day before reaching ELV.

Blade Brake Clutch

The Blade Brake Clutch (BBC) fitted to this lawn mower enables the disengagement of the drive to the blade when the user releases the safety handle. This allows the emptying of the grass collector with the engine running but without the blade rotating therefore increasing safety and productivity.

Heavy Duty 3-Speed Pro Gearbox

The Virtue 53 ASD BBC LV features a heavy-duty, professional three-speed gearbox that is designed to last a lifetime.

Shaft Drive

The heavy-duty shaft drive system ensures ultimate reliability for long periods of use and minimal maintenance.

Anti-Vibration

The Virtue shaft drive lawn mowers feature heavy-duty anti-vibration systems in the handlebars effectively isolating the upper handle from the cutter deck making for comfortable use.

Heavy-Duty Folding Handlebars

The premium heavy duty handlebars fitted to the Virtue 53 ASD BBC LV shaft drive lawn mower can be easily folded for storage or transportation.

Quality Aluminium Deck

The quality strong aluminium mower deck is designed for optimal grass collection in all weather conditions.

Adjustable Cutting Height

The Weibang Virtue 53 ASD BBC LV shaft drive lawn mower enables 11 different cutting heights which are selected by using a single lever.

Service & Storage Position

As a commercial lawn mower transportation is key, which is why Weibang developed quick release folding handles to allow for easy lifting when moving between locations, and easy access to the underside of the deck for cleaning and general maintenance.

5 Year Domestic / 3 Year Commercial Warranties

A comprehensive domestic and commercial warranty offering true piece of mind (subject to annual servicing).
