Ariens Razor Self-Propelled Lawnmower | 911375

Bruce Springsteen’s hit song “Born in the USA” is commonly misinterpreted as a simplistic expression of patriotism due to its anthemic chorus, but is in fact a complex reflection on the marginalisation of the American working class. Ariens’ high quality Razor mowers, on the other hand, are “made in the USA”, which is a much less ambiguous proposition; designed and built in the USA, the Ariens Razor SP is a versatile walk-behind lawnmower which ensures a pristine finish and exceptional ease of use. This combination of convenience and quality means that the Ariens Razor SP is in many ways a horticultural embodiment of the American Dream (assuming we interpret the “American Dream” as requiring being the proud owner of a very tidy lawn).

Built with a 53cm (21”) cutting width for effective maintenance of medium to large lawns, much of the Razor SP’s extraordinary utility is attributable to its clever cutting system. Supplied as standard with a high capacity grass collector and a mulching plug, this system allows you to quickly select a mowing mode to suit the conditions of your lawn. Traditional cut and collect will deliver a tidy finish on your lawn, with all clippings gathered by the fabric collector for disposal when you are done. The mulching mode offers a little of both of the aforementioned options, reducing clippings to tiny particles by cutting and re-cutting them before discharging directly onto your lawn. Here the mulched cuttings quickly break down and release valuable nutrients and moisture into the ground, thus ensuring a tidier finish and a healthier lawn. Whichever cutting mode you choose to use, however, all benefit from the Razor SP’s deep domed deck design, which maximises air flow for a superior quality of cut.

Powered by a 175cc Subaru four-stroke petrol engine made with a cast iron cylinder sleeve for outstanding reliability, Ariens’ drive system allows you to adapt your mowers performance to suit your personal requirements. The variable speed rear wheel drive self-propulsion, for example, allows you to select a forward speed to match your walking pace and to ensure superb control in every corner of your garden (slower speeds will allow you to negotiate tricky corners more effectively, while selecting a steady speed in open areas of lawn will help to deliver an even finish throughout your garden). Likewise, the single-lever centralised cutting height adjustment allows you to select from seven settings between 2.5cm and 10.2cm and makes it easy to adapt the Razor SP for use on a variety of lawn surfaces.

Similarly handy is the inclusion of a Rite-Hite^™ handlebar, with three mowing positions and two storage positions offering exceptional comfort during operation and convenience while during storage. With its deck made from stamped steel for magnificent durability, the Ariens Razor SP is as tough as it is hardworking and capable of offering many years of sterling service. This dependability is underlined by the inclusion of a three year limited consumer warranty with every machine, so even the most demanding home gardener will find this American-made machine a steadfast horticultural companion.
