821RT specifications

The Simplicity 821RT is a cutting-edge riding mower designed for both residential and commercial use, combining advanced technology with user-friendly characteristics. This versatile machine is engineered to deliver an exceptional mowing experience while ensuring reliability and performance.

One of the standout features of the Simplicity 821RT is its powerful 23-horsepower Briggs & Stratton engine. This robust engine provides ample power to handle tough mowing tasks, while the ReadyStart technology eliminates the need for a choke, allowing for easier starts in any weather condition. With its air-cooled design, the engine ensures optimal performance and longevity.

The 821RT features a durable steel frame and a high-performance mower deck that measures 48 inches wide. The deep dome design of the deck enhances grass collection and delivers a superior cut quality. This mower is equipped with the exclusive Simplicity Free Floating Mower Deck system, which ensures that the deck follows the contours of the terrain, providing an even cut every time. Furthermore, the deck height can be easily adjusted, allowing users to customize their mowing experience according to their lawn's specific needs.

Another innovative aspect of the Simplicity 821RT is its Hydro-Gear transmission, which offers effortless control and maneuverability. The automatic transmission allows the operator to shift seamlessly from forward to reverse without the need for clutching, making it easier to navigate around obstacles in tight spaces.

Comfort is a key consideration in the design of the Simplicity 821RT. The mower features an ergonomic seat with ample padding and adjustable armrests, providing comfort during long hours of mowing. The intuitive controls are easily accessible from the driver's seat, ensuring that users can operate the mower without distraction.

Safety is also prioritized in the design of the Simplicity 821RT. The mower comes equipped with a safety ignition switch and an automatic blade brake, which stops the mower blades when the operator leaves the seat. Additionally, the heavy-duty tires provide excellent traction and stability on various terrains.

In conclusion, the Simplicity 821RT is a powerful, user-friendly riding mower that incorporates innovative technologies and essential features for efficient and high-quality lawn care. With its combination of performance, comfort, and safety, it stands out as an exceptional choice for anyone in need of a reliable lawn maintenance solution.
