Ease of use

A self-propelled mower with a variable speed autodrive system, the Harrier 575A makes light work of everyday lawn care. It’s light enough to manoeuver around flower beds, borders or trees, and its high-traction rear roller guarantees that it’ll turn without damaging your turf.

The 575A also boasts a BBC (blade brake clutch) system that allows you to halt the blade without stopping the engine; cutting down on the time it takes to empty the large (70l) grass bag, and allowing you to reposition the mower without struggling with pull cords and chokes.

The Harrier 575A is also incredibly easy to set up and use. The cut height is set with a single counterbalanced lever; the handle folds down for easy storage/transport and the autodrive system uses Hayter’s own Sense-a-Speed technology to automatically match your pace.
