Allen Lawnmowers
Allen Lawnmowers is now a subsidiary
of Hayter Limited. Acquired on 19th January
2007, Hayter wanted to compliment their existing product range with a
selection of Allen hover lawnmowers.
Being lightweight and durable, Allen Lawnmowers are ideally suited for
grassed areas with banks that a conventional mower
could not handle.
Allen currently offer three models of hover mower, the 446 Hovertrim,
the 450 Professional and the XR44.
Allen hover mowers get their power from Honda engines, specifically
designed for the requirements of a hover mower:
strength, durability and most importantly the flexibility to work on
difficult banks and slopes.
The engine is connected to a lower impellor
which draws in air through the top of the mower deck and forces it
along the surface of the underside of the deck moving it in a circular
motion.
In addition the circulating air stream allows each grass cutting
to be re-cut many times before the air stream forces them back into the
turf. The hover mower glides easily on a cushion of air, allowing
movement in any direction, much quicker than conventional wheeled
machines.
The Hovertrim 446 features a flexible deck for slopes up to 45 degrees,
a 46cm cutting width, and transport wheels making it easier to
manoeuver.
If you require a larger cutting width, the Allen Professional should
fit the
bill, with a cutting width of 51cm, powered by a 4-stroke Honda GCV160
engine it gets the job done quicker.
For a lighter weight option, you
should consider the Allen XR44, with a reduced cutting width of 40cm,
but providing a more
manoeuverable base.
