Description
R316TX Ride On Front Mower Canberra
The Husqvarna R316TX ride-on front mower is built to tackle tough lawns with ease. Powered by a V-twin engine and equipped with a 103 cm Combi cutting deck, it offers both BioClip® mulching and rear ejection options—giving you the flexibility to handle various grass conditions efficiently.
Thanks to articulated steering, you can make tight, smooth turns, while the LED headlights improve visibility for safer mowing, even in dim light. Moreover, Bluetooth connectivity lets you link the mower to the Husqvarna Connect app, so you get real-time status updates at your fingertips.
For added comfort, the pivoting rear axle ensures traction and a smooth ride over uneven terrain. The adjustable steering wheel and telescopic column enhance ergonomics, helping you stay comfortable during longer mowing sessions.
Additionally, the floating cutting deck follows the contours of the lawn to prevent scalping. Combined with 16-inch wheels, you get improved ride comfort and accessibility. The built-in HMI display provides real-time data and alerts, helping you stay in control throughout your task.
Even better, the R316TX supports multiple attachments, making it a versatile, year-round solution. You can easily switch between cutting decks, brooms, flail mowers, and more, thanks to the quick-change attachment frame.
Finally, the mower’s automatic blade engagement activates the blades as soon as the deck is lowered. The dual-mode Combi deck gives you the choice between efficient mulching and rear discharge, ideal for both well-maintained and rougher areas.
A Comfortable, Convenient and High Performance Mower
The R316TX has a low centre of gravity and a comfortable driver’s position. These features provide safety, stability, and traction on both flat grounds and hillsides. The easy-access cutting height lever makes it possible to do cutting height changes while mowing, while the pedal-operated transmission allows you to control speed and direction with ease.
The R 316TX is designed with user comfort in mind, featuring a transparent fuel tank for easy fuel level checks, a convenient bottle holder, and an external fuel cap for easy refueling. The engine behind the driver ensures a better overview of the mowing area, as well as less noise and emissions in the driver’s area.
This mower also comes with a range of features to make maintenance quick and easy, including a tilting hood and easily accessible servicing points. The controls are easily accessible and make your work more comfortable, while the 12V socket outlet lets you plug in other electronics, charge your phone, and more.
With its patented articulated steering, pivoting support wheels, and BioClip® (mulching) mode for frequently cut areas, the R 316TX offers exceptional cutting results on even the most challenging lawns.
And with the smart Husqvarna Connect app, you’ll have easy access to tips, manuals, and spare part recommendations, as well as additional information such as runtime and charging status, maintenance and service needs, and more.
