Additional features

Multi-Blade:

The Multi-blade cuts the grass gradually and then chops it into fine pieces in the housing, when used with a grass collector box the finely cut grass is directed by the Multi-blade straight into the box to ensure it is filled to capacity. When used with the mulch insert the grass is chopped up into fine particles which disappear in the grass.
Close

Additional features

Mulching function:

VIKING mulch kits include a mulch insert and multi-blade. With the rear opening closed using a mulch insert, the grass is chopped up into fine particles which disappear in the grass. Nutrients and moisture are therefore returned to the lawn again.
