Grillo FD450 front-deck mower with catcher

Exceptional collection and top quality finish with Hi-Lift Grass Dump

The Grillo FD450 is perfect for large properties where owners or mowing professionals want a wide cut, a topquality grass collection finish and the ability to dump the collected grass or leaf debris off-site.
The out-front floating deck allows the operator to mow into corners, under bushes and trees and offers excellent visibility. Because the deck follows the contours of the land, the mower produces a quality finish resulting in a beautiful looking lawn. At the simple push of a button the deck is raised to get over kerbs etc.
The FD450 collects 450 litres of grass – much larger than most commercial machines and with its 46" out-front deck can drastically reduce mowing time.
The FD 450 offers incredibly good grass and leaf collection performance. Its unique deck shape and blade design produces excellent airflow which eliminates grass blocking. The innovative cutting system allows tremendous acceleration of the grass/air flow considerably increasing its collection capability, even in damp conditions.
The three bladed cutting system and direct rear collection, operates without the need for fans or an impeller. The hydraulic grass dumper takes away all the hard work of emptying the grass. Simply drive to your dump site, ute or truck and tip out the grass by pushing a switch. The hydraulics take care of the rest.
The FD450 features differential lock to increase traction on the driving wheels and a pivoting rear wheel axle to increase stability over uneven ground
As with all Grillo products, the FD450 was designed and built to last plus retain its value over many years.
