DPR22H46STA specifications

The Poulan DPR22H46STA is a robust and versatile riding lawn mower designed for homeowners seeking efficiency and reliability in lawn maintenance. With its 22 horsepower engine and a 46-inch cutting deck, this lawn mower is ideal for tackling medium to large yards, making it a favorite among garden enthusiasts.

One of the primary features of the Poulan DPR22H46STA is its powerful engine. The 22 HP Briggs & Stratton engine provides ample power for cutting through thick grass and uneven terrain. It offers a smooth starting mechanism, ensuring that the mower is ready to go at a moment’s notice. This engine is also designed for efficiency, delivering a balance between power and fuel economy, which is vital for homeowners looking to reduce operational costs.

The 46-inch cutting deck is another standout feature of this model. This size enables the mower to cover a significant area with each pass, reducing overall mowing time. The deck is made from durable materials, ensuring it can withstand the rigors of frequent use while ensuring a clean and precise cut. Additionally, the cutting height can be easily adjusted, giving users the flexibility to customize their mowing experience based on grass length and weather conditions.

A key characteristic of the Poulan DPR22H46STA is its ease of maneuverability. The mower features a tight turning radius, allowing users to navigate around obstacles like trees, flower beds, and fences with minimal effort.

In addition, the mower’s compatibility with optional mulch kits provides even more versatility for grass care.

The Poulan DPR22H46STA also emphasizes user-friendly controls, with an intuitive dashboard that makes it easy to monitor speed, fuel level, and engine performance. This ensures that lawn care is not only effective but also enjoyable.
