Vari-Tilt Conbar Mowers (only) – Information

The Rover Vari-tilt System (Patent Pending) is fitted to provide improved performance when mulching. Generally it is recommended that the conbar is at its longest length for Mulch mowing and at it’s shortest length for Catch mowing (Refer to figures 12 & 13). The conbar at it’s longest length also provides a greater maximum height of cut.
