GTH225 specifications

The Husqvarna GTH225 is a standout riding mower designed for those who seek a blend of performance, comfort, and reliability in lawn care. Engineered for durability and versatility, this model is perfect for homeowners who manage medium to large yards.

At the heart of the GTH225 is a robust and efficient engine. Powered by a 22 HP Kohler engine, it delivers consistent performance for cutting even the toughest grass. The engine is designed to ensure smooth operation and offers the torque needed for impressive cutting power. Additionally, the hydrostatic transmission allows for seamless speed adjustments, providing an easy and responsive driving experience.

One of the key features of the Husqvarna GTH225 is its cutting deck, which spans a wide 48 inches. This substantial deck size means fewer passes are required to cover large areas, making lawn maintenance quicker and more efficient. The cutting height can be adjusted from 1.5 to 4 inches, catering to different grass types and seasonal growth patterns. The deck is also equipped with high-quality blades, which provide clean cuts and a professional finish.

Comfort is a major consideration with the GTH225. The operator's seat is well-cushioned and ergonomically designed, enabling users to mow for extended periods without discomfort. The steering wheel and controls are intuitively placed, ensuring that operation is user-friendly and requires minimal effort.

The Husqvarna GTH225 is also built to enhance maneuverability. With a tight turning radius, it easily navigates around obstacles like trees and flower beds. This agility is complemented by its durable construction, featuring a sturdy frame that can withstand the rigors of regular use.

Another innovative feature is the optional mulching kit, which enhances the mower's versatility. It allows for superior grass recycling, thereby enriching the lawn without the need for bagging clippings. Additionally, the model can be equipped with a tow hitch for added functionality, enabling users to attach various gardening tools or trailers.

In line with Husqvarna’s commitment to environmental sustainability, the GTH225 is designed with fuel efficiency in mind, helping homeowners reduce their carbon footprint while keeping their lawns pristine. Overall, the Husqvarna GTH225 combines advanced technology, comfort, and performance, making it a reliable choice for anyone serious about maintaining their outdoor space.
