YTH2448 specifications

The Husqvarna YTH2448 is a feature-rich riding lawn mower designed for homeowners seeking efficiency and ease of use in maintaining their lawns. This model is powered by a robust 24 HP Kohler engine, providing ample power to tackle a variety of grass types and terrains. The engine is designed for reliable starts and improved fuel efficiency, ensuring that even the most demanding mowing tasks can be completed without interruption.

One of the standout features of the YTH2448 is its 48-inch cutting deck. This wide deck allows users to cover more ground in less time, making it ideal for medium to large-sized lawns. The cutting height can be easily adjusted with a lever, offering six different height settings ranging from 1.5 inches to 4 inches. This flexibility allows users to achieve the desired cut while accommodating varying grass conditions.

In terms of technology, the YTH2448 is equipped with a hydrostatic transmission that offers smooth and hassle-free operation.

Comfort is another key aspect of the Husqvarna YTH2448. The spacious seating is ergonomically designed, providing support during prolonged use, and the easy-to-reach controls enhance the user experience. Additionally, the mower features a reinforced deck construction that enhances durability while also ensuring a clean cut.

For added convenience, the Husqvarna YTH2448 comes with a cutting deck washout port, making it simple to clean the mower after use. This feature helps maintain the performance of the mower while minimizing the buildup of grass clippings and debris that can impede cutting efficiency.

The YTH2448 also provides users with the option to add accessories, such as baggers and mulching kits, to customize their mowing experience. Whether your goal is to collect clippings for composting or create nutrient-rich mulch for your lawn, this mower can adapt to your needs.
