The Hydro 80 cuts and collects both long and short grass, without clogging.
But this little workhorse does much more: for non-collection there is side discharge or rear ejection for longer grass. If you want a mulching mower – Hydro 80 does that too.
With its quality finish, lawns look immaculate – but this versatile ride-on is equally at home in a paddock, orchard or rough grass. Add to that its compact dimensions, ease of use, hydrostatic drive and powerful 15hp twin-cylinder KAWASAKI engine, and you have a highly efficient machine offering the kind of output that would easily replace three walk-behind mowers.
Collecting
Mower deck
The Hydro 80’s success lies in its specially contoured deck which lifts and blows the clippings directly into the rear collector, without clogging. On uneven ground, anti-scalp rollers keep the blades out of trouble. It has an 80cm cutting width with an electromagnetic clutch and blade brake as an integral part of the system.
Built-in grassbox
The integrated 240-litre grassbox is emptied without leaving the driving position. For-ease-of-use the system is hydraulically assisted.
Sound alarm
A buzzer sounds when the large capacity grassbox is full.
Cutting in long grass
Cut and drop
For meadows, long grass or other cut and drop applications, simply remove the base of the grassbox.
Windrowing
A side deflector (MD 80) allows the Hydro 80 to windrow cut grass. This option is often used in long grass.
Hydro 80 as a mulching mower
Efficient, environmentally-friendly mowing
An optional mulching kit (MU 80) quickly and efficiently recycles clippings into fine particles before returning them to the turf to decompose naturally. This method requires more frequent mowing and is particularly useful in drier periods when the grass grows slowly.
Compact design
Measuring 1.98m x 0.82m wide, hydro 80 is easily transported in a truck or trailer. It can pass through most gateways and its tight turning circle makes it ideal for small or awkward areas. It mows close to walls and fences and is highly manoeuvrable.

The new, maintenance-free hydrostatic transmission on the hydro 80 guarantees a lifespan of 1,000 hours.
