  • Excellent catcher performance.
  • Quick-release folding handle.
  • Wash nozzle to clean the underside of the cowling.
  • Self-propelled drive with one speed.

  • Very good catcher.
Bad points

Bad Points

  • The control lever is stiff to operate.
  • The cutting height adjuster requires a fair amount of effort to move due to the heavy spring-loaded lever.
