917.257632 specifications

The Sears 917.257632 is a versatile lawn tractor that has been designed to cater to homeowners looking for efficiency and ease in lawn care. This model stands out with its blend of features that make it an attractive option for anyone looking to maintain a well-manicured yard.

One of the main features of the Sears 917.257632 is its powerful engine. It is equipped with a reliable 19 horsepower engine, providing ample power to handle various tasks throughout the yard. Whether mowing the lawn, hauling materials, or towing attachments, this lawn tractor ensures consistent performance.

The tractor boasts a wide cutting deck, typically measuring around 42 inches, which allows for a broader mowing path and reduces the time spent cutting the grass. The cutting height is easily adjustable, giving users the flexibility to choose their preferred grass length, ensuring a professional-looking finish every time.

The 917.257632 features a hydrostatic transmission, offering smooth and seamless speed adjustments without the need for gear shifting. This technology enhances ease of use, allowing operators to focus on navigating the lawn rather than managing gears. The intuitive foot pedal provides effortless control, making it easier to maneuver around obstacles.

Comfort is another significant aspect of the Sears 917.257632. The tractor comes with a cushioned seat that offers ample support during longer mowing sessions, ensuring an enjoyable experience. The ergonomic steering wheel is designed for optimal handling and ease of navigation, allowing users to operate the lawn tractor with minimal fatigue.

Additionally, the Sears 917.257632 includes ample storage options, with a compartment located near the operator’s seat to store essential tools and supplies. The tractor is designed with durability in mind, featuring robust materials that withstand regular use and varied weather conditions.

Safety features are critical in this model, with mechanisms such as a blade brake that automatically stops the blades when the operator leaves the seat. This ensures peace of mind while operating the machine, particularly on uneven terrain.

In summary, the Sears 917.257632 is a well-rounded lawn tractor that combines power, comfort, and advanced technology, making it an excellent choice for homeowners seeking a reliable solution for their lawn care needs. Its diverse features and user-friendly design enhance the overall mowing experience, setting it apart in the competitive market of lawn tractors.
