PD25PH48STB specifications

The Poulan PD25PH48STB is a versatile lawn tractor designed to deliver performance and comfort for homeowners looking to maintain their lawns with ease. It is particularly well-suited for those with medium to large yards, providing the necessary power and features to make lawn care more efficient.

One of the standout features of the Poulan PD25PH48STB is its robust 48-inch cutting deck, which allows for a wider cutting path. This is beneficial for covering more ground in less time, reducing the overall time spent mowing the lawn. The deck is designed with a durable steel construction that ensures longevity and resilience against various elements.

The mower is powered by a reliable 25 horsepower Briggs & Stratton engine. This engine combines power with fuel efficiency, offering excellent performance to tackle even the toughest grass conditions. The electric start feature adds convenience, allowing users to start the engine with the turn of a key rather than the traditional method of pulling a cord.

Another notable characteristic of the PD25PH48STB is its six-speed transmission, which provides excellent control and adaptability depending on the mowing conditions. This allows users to adjust their speed based on their preference or the terrain, whether it’s flat or hilly.

The tractor also features an ergonomic seat design, ensuring comfort during extended mowing sessions. The adjustable seat makes it easy to find the perfect riding position, while the easy-to-reach controls enhance the overall user experience. To further enhance comfort, the PD25PH48STB comes equipped with a deck wash port that simplifies cleaning, allowing users to maintain the mower with minimal effort.

For those concerned about safety, this lawn tractor includes an automatic safety shut-off feature that engages when the operator leaves the seat, providing peace of mind while mowing. Additionally, the tight turning radius allows for greater maneuverability, making it easier to navigate around trees, flower beds, and other obstacles in the yard.

Overall, the Poulan PD25PH48STB is an exceptional choice for homeowners looking for a dependable, efficient, and comfortable lawn mowing solution. With its powerful engine, generous cutting deck, user-friendly features, and safety mechanisms, it stands out as a top contender in the lawn tractor market.
