The Yato 34 cm cordless lawnmower is an efficient and quiet choice for lawn care in small houses and smaller green areas. It is powered by two 18V batteries, which provide a total of 36V of power without any disturbing wires or emissions. The mower has a centrally adjustable cutting height, which can be set to six different levels between 20 and 65 mm. The 34 cm cutting width allows for even mowing of lawns in compact areas, and its spacious 35 litre collector makes emptying easy by reducing breaks during work. Battery operation significantly reduces noise compared to petrol-powered mowers, making this model suitable for quiet residential areas.
User-friendliness is enhanced by an ergonomic start/stop button and a large 4-position battery level display, ensuring that downtime is kept to a minimum. The front wheels have a diameter of 150 mm and the rear wheels 175 mm, making it easy to manoeuvre on varying surfaces. This cordless mower is part of Yato's expandable 18V system, so it can be used with compatible 2 Ah, 3 Ah and 4 Ah batteries. It also features overheat protection for longer battery life and reliability.
Battery operation not only makes the device more environmentally friendly, but also allows for greater flexibility and ease of use, especially in confined and inaccessible spaces. The Yato YT-85221 cordless mower comes without battery and charger, making it a perfect addition to the existing Yato tool collection.
