917.372852 specifications

The Sears 917.372852 is a notable example of a lawn tractor that reflects the quality and innovation synonymous with the Sears brand. Designed for homeowners seeking an efficient and reliable mowing solution, this model is packed with features that enhance performance and ease of use.

One of the standout characteristics of the Sears 917.372852 is its powerful engine. Equipped with a robust 17.5 horsepower Briggs & Stratton engine, it provides ample power for tackling various terrains and grass types. This engine is known for its reliability and longevity, ensuring that users can count on it season after season.

The 917.372852 features a 42-inch cutting deck, which strikes an ideal balance between maneuverability and cutting efficiency.

Safety is also a priority in the design of the Sears 917.372852. The model is equipped with features such as an operator presence control, ensuring that the engine stops if the operator leaves their seat. This function significantly enhances user safety, particularly in residential environments where children or pets might be present.

The lawn tractor also boasts a comfortable and ergonomic design. The soft-touch steering wheel and adjustable seat provide an enjoyable riding experience, even during extended mowing sessions. The tractor's compact design and tight turning radius further contribute to its handling, making it easy to navigate around flower beds and garden edges.

In conclusion, the Sears 917.372852 delivers a robust combination of power, efficiency, and safety features, making it a solid choice for homeowners looking to maintain their lawns with minimal effort.
