The Craftsman 917.271742 lawn tractor is a versatile and powerful machine designed for homeowners seeking a reliable solution for lawn maintenance. This model is known for its robust performance, user-friendly features, and innovative technologies that make mowing a breeze.

One of the standout features of the Craftsman 917.271742 is its powerful engine. It is equipped with a 24 HP Briggs & Stratton V-Twin engine that provides significant power and efficiency. This engine ensures that the tractor can handle various terrains, from flat lawns to slightly hilly landscapes, without any struggle. The V-Twin design allows for smoother operation and reduced noise, making mowing less of a chore.

The mower deck of the Craftsman 917.271742 is another notable characteristic. With a cutting width of 54 inches, it allows for efficient mowing of larger areas in a shorter amount of time. The deck is made of heavy-duty steel, ensuring durability and longevity. Additionally, it features a deck wash system, making cleanup after mowing quick and easy.
