The Poulan PD18H42STA is a powerful and versatile lawn tractor designed to make mowing easier and more efficient for homeowners and landscapers alike. With its robust build and a range of user-friendly features, the PD18H42STA is ideal for managing medium to large lawns.

One of the standout features of the Poulan PD18H42STA is its 18 horsepower Briggs & Stratton engine, known for efficiency and reliability. The engine provides ample power for cutting and handling various terrain types. Its overhead valve design enhances fuel efficiency and reduces emissions, aligning with modern environmental standards.

The PD18H42STA comes equipped with a 42-inch cutting deck, allowing for a wider cutting path, which means fewer passes over your lawn.

This flexibility ensures a clean and even cut, promoting healthy grass growth.

Another notable technology in this tractor is the hydrostatic transmission. This system allows for smooth acceleration and deceleration, providing easy maneuverability, especially in tight spaces.

Maintenance is straightforward with the Poulan PD18H42STA. The deck wash feature makes it easy to clean the underside of the cutting deck, helping to prevent grass buildup and ensuring optimal performance. Additionally, a removable fuel tank cap facilitates refueling without spills, enhancing convenience.
