Its double-layer electrostatic powder coating process ensures durability and a glossy finish. Each machine is meticulously assembled and rigorously tested to ensure top performance and reliability.

Durable Single-Blade Cutter

The Climber 9.18’s 91 cm single-blade cutter deck withstands stone impacts and features a large-diameter blade shaft for reliable performance. The special steel blade has reversible, low-impact knives and retracts on impact, with protective side doors for easy maintenance and cleaning.

Compact and Stable Design

The Climber 9.18’s compact design, low centre of gravity, and optimal weight distribution ensure maximum stability and safety on steep slopes. Its low-positioned seat, vertical engine, and strategically placed components contribute to exceptional stability in all working conditions.

Powerful and Efficient Engine

The Climber 9.18 is powered by a 656 cc Briggs & Stratton EXi INTEK 7160 petrol engine with a 7-litre fuel tank and electric start. This two-cylinder engine ensures reliability, low emissions, and minimal vibrations. The "Grillo Super Silent" muffler offers excellent noise reduction and low exhaust resistance, with an easily accessible air filter for quick cleaning.

Advanced Hydrostatic Transmission

The Climber 9.18 features a hydrostatic transmission with a differential gearbox and foot pedal lock, complemented by a cooling fan and copper coil for optimal oil cooling. A charge pump ensures peak performance in extreme conditions, while the hydrostatic unit’s positioning beside the engine keeps operating temperatures lower by preventing hot air from affecting the drive.
