Benassi L300 - Self-propelled Petrol turf cutter - Honda GX160 - 5.5HP

The Benassi L300 petrol turf cutter is a machine designed for the precise removal of turf, ideal for laying lawns and professional ground maintenance.

The L300 model is equipped with a 3.6 kW Honda GX160 petrol thermal engine, known for its reliability, quietness and durability.

Its compact structure and 30 cm cutting width make it particularly suitable for small work areas, while maintaining high levels of operating precision. Cutting is performed by a blade that can be adjusted to a depth of up to 35 mm in 6 different positions, controlled by a mechanical rack system located in the central area of the handlebar.

The machine is distinguished by the presence of 2 forward gears that offer a forward speed of between 1.8 and 2.8 km/h. This allows the work to be adapted to the consistency of the soil and the type of sod to be cut. The belt drive and gears in oil bath ensure long life and low maintenance.

The painted steel frame has a solid and well-balanced structure. The design is functional and sturdy, while the garden-type front wheels and tractor-type rear wheels ensure high grip and stability on grassy or loose ground.

The height-adjustable handles mounted on anti-vibration supports allow for more comfortable working even for long periods, reducing operator fatigue.

Here are the possible applications of the turf cutter:

• Removal of turf for lawn renovation or restoration
• Preparing the ground for new sowing
• Installing systems or structures in the garden
• Creation of borders or boundaries in the lawn
• Removal of surface roots and weeds

The blade is made of high-strength steel, which guarantees high durability and wear resistance, even under intensive use.

The turf blade is an essential component designed to ensure precise and clean cuts in the ground, allowing you to effectively remove portions of turf without compromising the roots underneath.

The sod lifter has an alternating horizontal blade movement, ideal for cutting the turf at the base, separating it from the ground cleanly and effectively.

The connecting rod-crank system connected to the motor generates the oscillating movement of the blade.

The blade movement is activated by the lever on the handlebar.
