Mulch where others hit their limits. The AS 65 2T ES is equipped with the world’s only 2-stroke engine that meets the requirements stipulated by the EU Emissions Directive 97/68/EC. The AS 2-stroke engine maintains engine lubrication regardless of position, enabling work on inclines of 40 degrees and more without the risk of engine damage. In addition, the AS 2-stroke engine is factory-equipped with an EasyStart function; the CDI digital ignition system cuts the rpms required to start in half. The 2-stroke engine’s high torque provides full power in high, wet grass.
A third crankshaft bearing and friction discs on the wing blade protect the engine in the event of unseen obstacles. Propulsion occurs via a 5-speed manual transmission with reverse gear (2.2 km/h) that covers a speed range from 1.6–4.5 km/h. Work rates reaching 2,900 m² per hour are possible due to a high-performance 2-stroke engine with up to 6.7 hp and traction drive. The AS 65 2T ES easily cuts grass up to 120 cm high. Not least, the engine/blade reduction of 1:2 delivers outstanding cutting performance. The AS cross-blade cutting and shredding system achieves a fine mulching result, even in high growth.
Simple, convenient and safe operation
The AS 65 2T ES works with operating levers that activate the parking brake, the traction drive, the limited slip differential and the blade clutch. Absolute safety for slope mowing is achieved by an automatic parking brake and limited slip differential which remains permanently locked while the machine is in drive. When the drive lever is released, the parking brake automatically engages and the AS 65 2T ES stops, whether on a slope or level ground.
