The AS 799 Rider’s big brother, the AS 800 FreeRider is equipped with a Briggs & Stratton Series 3 Intek engine with gear-reduction blade drive and up to 13.0 hp. With an AS cross-blade system and closed mowing deck, the AS 800 FreeRider cuts and mulches grass up to 80 cm high. The grass is then placed between the wheels and not run over, ensuring greater safety in wet conditions and on slopes. The cutting height can be adjusted to 4 levels between 35–85 mm. Hydrostatic transmission allows the precise adaptation of speed to match the terrain, reaching 8.0 km/h and 6.0 km/h in reverse while a limited slip differential can be switched on via a foot pedal. When in park, the mowing unit switches off automatically via a mechanical blade clutch.
The AS 800 FreeRider’s tubular frame ensures high stability; a bumper protects the axles and wheel suspension. A length-adjustable bucket seat provides a comfortable upright sitting position and ample legroom while a smooth steering system guarantees fatigue-free work.
Work rates up to 6,800 m² per hour are possible thanks to an 80 cm cutting height, powerful engine and hydrostatic transmission. A 15-litre tank means longer work periods without refueling. The AS 800 FreeRider is suited for both flat and uneven terrain and slight slopes.
