Mulching is the future
Mulching lawnmowers recycle grass clippings by finely cutting and re-cutting the grass, hiding cuttings within the standing grass to wilt and decompose thereby feeding the soil.

The Mountfield 1538M-SD offers the perfect solution for those who do not wish to collect grass clippings.
Mulching grass is a great feature as it saves so much time and can be more than 30% quicker as there is no stopping work to drive to the tip to empty clippings, which also results in a significant fuel saving. Mulching the grass allows the clippings to be recycled, improving the soil as they decompose forming a natural fertiliser high in potash and nitrogen. You will notice a marked improvement in your grass as this fertiliser takes effect over the course of the cutting season. You may well ask “Will I see the mulched grass?” and the answer is “No!” Mulched clippings are blown down into the turf and are not noticeable provided the grass is cut regularly and not on the lowest setting.
Powered by a single cylinder Mountfield 432cc engine, the 1538M-SD has a manual transmission with 5 forward and 1 reverse gears. It is fitted with a 98cm/38in working width cutter deck with side discharge or mulch options and height of cut is easy to adjust with 7 settings from 25 - 80mm.
Other quality features include electromagnetic blade engagement, tow bar, head lights and a wash facility on the deck. This great little tractor is suitable for gardens and grounds of 1.5 - 2 acres.

Very impressed with the capabilities of the mower for such good value. Review by Dutch
Quality We have just purchased a Mountfield 1538SD Ride On Mower to replace an old Countax mower we had been using to cut our 1 acre of paddock grass at our holiday house in France. Last weekend we took the new mower to France and put it to the test......and the machine is wonderful......cuts the very long grass with ease........went over first with a minimal cut then again with a finer cut......very impressive performance from such a reasonably priced machine....would highly recommend (Posted on 21/10/2010)
