Husqvarna YTH20K46 Lawn Tractor Review
Lawn Tractor Husqvarna YTH20K46
The Husqvarna YTH20K46 garden tractor lawn mower has a cutting width of 46 inches. Because the protective plastic discharge flap is situated on the side of the deck, the mower deck has a total width of close to 56 inches. The deck is built of stamped steel rather than welded or bolted steel, which means there are fewer connections and weak areas where breaking could occur. Two blades are housed on the deck. These are belt-driven and activated by a PTO lever. The YTH 20K46's mower deck can be set from 3.5 inches above the ground to within 0.5 inches of the ground. This means that very long grass can be accommodated on the deck. The mower deck may be operated in six different positions.
The Husqvarna YTH20K46 is powered by a Courage engine manufactured by Kohler. The displacement of this engine is 0.597 liters. To keep everything running smoothly and without friction, the four-stroke engine employs a full-pressure lubrication system. The engine is a single-cylinder design that includes an oil filter. The YTH 20K46 lawnmower has been keyed. Individuals purchasing this Kohler engine for personal use exclusively are entitled to a two-year limited warranty.
The Husqvarna YTH20K46 does not require a clutch to change speeds because it has a hydrostatic transmission. Its top forward speed is 8.8 kph (5.5 mph), whereas its top reverse speed is only 3.9 kph (2.4 mph). The YTH 20K46's rear wheels, which transfer power, are larger than the front wheels, measuring 189.5 (18 inch diameter, 9.5 inch width) apiece. The lawnmower's overall weight is 244.9 kg (540 lbs). The driver's seat, thankfully, has a high back that provides excellent support for the operator. The lawn tractor also comes complete with headlights, allowing you to use it in the dark. Don't forget that throughout the winter, you can install a snow blower on the front of this lawnmower.
Pros
- Lower cost than comparable-sized tractors, very even cut for a 46" deck.
Cons
- Headlight connections come loose,
- Only 6 deck height adjustments. Rating-4 The Husqvarna YTH20K46 is a good value in its size class.
