Stiga Estate 598 W Special - Lawn Tractor - Honda GCV 530 Engine

The petrol lawn tractor Stiga Estate 598 W Special is a model designed to offer high performance in large working areas, such as gardens or lands up to 5500 m².

Equipped with a powerful Honda GCV 530cc twin-cylinder engine, this tractor ensures stable power and optimal efficiency during intensive use. The robust structure and the quality of the materials used ensure long-lasting durability, while the ergonomic design contributes to improving the driving experience.

The 98 cm cutting width allows covering a large area in a short time, reducing the number of passes needed to complete the job. Additionally, it is possible to adjust the cutting height on 7 different levels, offering greater versatility according to the terrain needs. The 9-litre tank and the 240-litre basket allow working continuously for a long time without the need for frequent emptying, increasing work efficiency.

Another distinctive aspect of this model is the possibility to use the included mulching kit, which allows spreading the cut grass directly on the lawn, helping to naturally fertilise the soil.

The integrated LED headlights ensure adequate lighting even in low visibility conditions, enhancing safety during work.

Main features:

• Honda GCV twin-cylinder 530cc engine: High power for working on large and sloped terrains.

• Mulching kit included: Allows natural fertilisation of the lawn with the cut grass.

• 98 cm cutting width: Ideal for covering large areas quickly and efficiently.

• 240-litre collector basket: Allows working for a long time without interruptions.

• LED headlights: Enable safe work even in low light conditions.

The lawn tractor Stiga Estate 598 W Special represents the ideal choice for those looking for powerful, versatile, and easy-to-manoeuvre equipment, suitable for long-lasting work on large surfaces.

1- COLLECTION WITH BASKET (standard):

Brand new and spacious collection basket with a capacity of 240 litres, among the largest in its category.

The bag emptying system is very simple: it is done through a very effective system, leveraging the removable handle. This way, the bag can be emptied at the desired point without any effort.

The bag can be removed in an instant: just lift it upwards to detach it from its "bridge" seat where it is housed.

2- MULCHING (standard):

A cutting system that shreds the cut grass, leaving it on the lawn, pulverising it to the point that it will almost appear as if it has been collected. This eliminates the problem of its disposal (reducing effort and drastically shortening the time spent cutting) and also, as it decomposes, it will later turn into a nutrient for the lawn itself and into water (grass is made up of 80% water), thus ensuring a perfectly balanced biological cycle. However, it is useful to remember that, to ensure the absolute efficiency of the system, the lawn must still be irrigated, and the grass cut very often. Switching from one system to another is very easy.

Conversion: remove the collection bag and insert the mulching plug into the central tunnel.

This Stiga tractor is equipped with the Honda GCV 530 Twin-Cylinder engine, a twin-cylinder engine with a displacement of 530 cc that develops an effective power of 12.6 Hp at 2600 rpm.

The Honda GXV 530 engine is powerful, reliable, and generates low noise and emissions.

It has a 9-litre tank!

Features:

Nominal Power: 18 HP
The more correct term would be "Commercial" Power, meaning the classic standard of power definition officially used until a few years ago by all the most well-known engine manufacturers.

* This data is still more widespread and advertised in the main commercial sales channels, although it is an increased data compared to the actual power.

Effective Power: 12.6 HP (at a rotation speed of 2600 rpm)
Corresponds to the actual power expressed at the engine shaft. It is the one indicated as official in the engine manufacturer's manual or technical data.

* This is data that can vary for the same engine model depending on the rotation speed that the equipment manufacturer has decided to have the applied engine deliver.

Thanks to the new hydrostatic transmission with 2 pedals, driving the tractor will be easy and intuitive. Everything can be controlled simply with the right foot resting on the pedal.

The operation is very simple: to move forward, just push the pedal with the toe. The tractor will move forward based on the pressure exerted. To engage reverse, just push with the heel on the other end of the pedal.

As soon as the pedal is released, the machine stops and allows for absolutely safe operation.

Robust gears make the transmission difficult to break. The hydrostatic transmission is by nature much more modern and functional (although more expensive) than the traditional manual gear transmission. The latter, whenever the speed needs to be changed, forces the operator to stop, change gear (because all tractors with manual or mechanical transmission require that the gear change occurs from a standstill), release the clutch, and restart at the desired speed. Certainly, if the speed had to be changed several times (for example, in all those gardens where there are trees, pots, or any other kind of obstacle), the traditional gear transmission would be decidedly impractical. The hydrostatic transmission, on the other hand, allows immediate speed changes, without ever stopping, in the most absolute practicality, in a totally automatic way, simply by varying the pressure on the pedal that operates this transmission.

Stiga Estate 598 W Special lawn tractor is equipped with a 2-blade deck.

The tractor is equipped as standard with collection blades

Cutting deck width 98 cm.

The deck of the lawn tractor is floating: it easily adapts to the undulations of the terrain (provided they are not excessively harsh). Furthermore, this model is equipped with a wide protection that completely surrounds the deck.

The blade engagement is electromagnetic and is controlled via the red button to the right of the steering wheel. This system avoids manual engagement via the classic lever found on many types of tractors, and works thanks to an electromagnetic clutch that allows easy and quick blade engagement.

The cutting deck height adjustment is done via a lever.

The available cutting positions are 7 and can be varied from a maximum of 80 mm to a minimum of 25 mm.

The cutting deck is equipped with 2 anti-scalp wheels and a double washing connection, both for the right and left side of the deck.
