Grillo FD450 Grass-Collection Mower (450L)

Model: 8Y5AH
Grillo

A professional hydrostatic mower with front-mounted cutter deck with a grass-catcher capacity of 450 Lt. The grass-catcher discharge height is 170 cm with an ejection of 45 cm; the cutting and high performance collection of this model are its best features. The innovative cutting system “Grillo Overblow” allows tremendous acceleration of the grass/air flow into the discharge chute considerably increasing its collection capability, even in damp, wet conditions whilst at the same time keeping its noise level of the whole cutting/collecting system extremley low. The front-mounted cutter deck gives the operator excellent visibility of his working area.

The out-front floating deck allows the operator to mow into corners, under bushes and trees and offers excellent visibility. Because the deck follows the contours of the land, the mower produces a quality finish which results in a beautiful looking lawn.  If you need to lift the deck to get over kerbs it’s simply a case of pushing a button to hydraulically raise it.

The FD450 collects 450 litres of grass – much larger capacity than most commercial machines and with it’s 46” out-front deck can reduce mowing time dramatically.

Features

Efficient Cutting System

The FD450’s cutting system boosts grass/air flow acceleration, directing grass into a large chute for optimal compression and improved efficiency of the 450 L catcher. It excels even in challenging conditions, handling high, wet grass and leaves during autumn with ease.

Modern Design & Comfort

The FD450’s sleek, contemporary design and meticulous attention to detail make a striking impression. The ergonomic operator's position features a comfortable, adjustable suspension seat tailored to the operator’s weight.

Uncompromising Quality

Grillo FD450 features high-quality components built in Italy with premium materials and advanced technology, ensuring 100% quality control. The double electrostatic powder coating process provides durability and shine, while meticulous assembly and rigorous final testing guarantee top performance.

Automatic Blades Disengage

Blades automatically disengage when the grass catcher is full, with an optional buzzer to alert you. Emptying is simple with electrical push-buttons, raising the catcher to 170 cm for easy tipping, and the rear door opens automatically for convenience.

Exceptional Maneuverability

The Grillo FD450 offers exceptional maneuverability with rear wheel steering and an inner turning circle of just 30 cm. Its hydrostatic transmission is controlled via a smooth-pedal system, making it agile and easy to navigate around obstacles.

Effortless Blade Engagement

The cutter blades engage smoothly via an electromagnetic clutch controlled by a push-button. The parking brake allows for safe dismounting with the engine running and blades disengaged, automatically excluding the hydraulic controls for the cutter deck and grass catcher.

Powerful and Efficient Engine

The FD450 is equipped with an 18hp B&S 7220 Professional Series twin-cylinder engine, featuring electric start and a 17L fuel tank with a level indicator. Its 656cc displacement ensures reliability, low emissions, minimal vibration, and high performance, while the “Grillo Super Silent” exhaust maximises noise reduction and efficiency.

Exceptional Cutting Performance

The FD450’s floating cutting deck ensures a flawless cut on uneven terrain, thanks to its rear pivoting axle and anti-skid tyres. With a speed range of 0 to 11 km/h, continuous adjustability, and a pedal-operated differential lock, this mower offers both precision and enhanced traction for a superior lawn care experience.

Effortless Cleaning & Maintenance

Cleaning the FD450’s cutting deck is a breeze—simply connect a water hose to the quick coupling, engage the blade for a few seconds, and the deck will be thoroughly cleaned. For maintenance, the deck can be easily removed and positioned vertically on its designed supports; the drive belt can be quickly detached, and engine components are readily accessible by lifting the grass-catcher or seat.

Versatile and Precise

The FD450 combines easy steering and a tight turning circle, making it ideal for both domestic and professional use. Its innovative cutter deck features twin counter-rotating blades plus a front blade, ensuring clear visibility and precision cutting around obstacles. The deck’s robust design includes additional reinforcements and a double-backed drive belt, offering durability and protection against damage.
