This easy-to-use petrol roller-mower from Hayter is a push-type machine with a compact 41cm cut, so it’s well worth considering if you’re looking-after a smaller lawn with restricted access.
Key amongst many impressive features is its 125cc Briggs & Stratton 450E-Series engine; a four-stroke vertical-type unit with an aluminium muffler for rust-resistance; and an oil-foam air-filter for optimum engine protection. B&S’s Prime ‘n’ Pull technology ensures just the right amount of fuel is sent to the carburettor for dependable, flood-free starts.
The Hayter Spirit 41 has a full-width ribbed rear-roller, which produces a pleasing striped effect, while also providing stability during edgework.
It can be used with or without its 55-litre grass-catcher, depending on the conditions; and it offers superior performance in terms of both cut and collection, thanks to it series of aereodynamic front-mounted fins.
Equipped with a seven-stage single-lever cutting-height range, which can be set as low as 13mm, the Hayter Spirit is capable of producing a beautifully close-cut formal finish.
It has a cutter-bar friction disc which works to protect the crank should the blade strike a solid object; and it’s built around a premium-quality aluminium skeleton chassis which provides a strong and durable cutting-platform that will not rust.
The mower-deck on this model is lined with smooth ABS plastic for optimised under-deck airflow and reduced blade noise.
The grass-collector is made from fabric, so it can be collapsed for storage; and the wheels are mounted on ball-race bearings for smoother motion and improved longevity when compared to cheaper bush-mounted wheels.
