Details
Made in Britain, the C series has evolved offering perfomance that is unmatched. It is a fine lawnmower, a marvellous leaf collector and a tough, rough cutter all in one. The industry leading powered grass collector along with the XRD cutting deck, make the C40 ideally suited for areas up to 2 acres its as much at home cutting the paddock and orchard as it is on the formal lawn.
The C40 lawn tractor is packed full of the features Countax customers expect from a superior riding mower. Fitted with a 97cm (38”) XRD deck, it is ideal for tackling gardens of around one acre or where there are issues with access and a narrower deck is required.
An Ariens single cylinder 546cc engine, hours meter display and a power take-off (PTO) are fitted as standard on the C40 ride-on mower.
More than just a fine lawn mower, the C40 garden tractor can be fitted with a range of attachments and accessories. The tractor’s PTO allows you to drive attachments such as the optional PGC+ or broadcast spreader. Other accessories include a transportation box and snowblade for year-round functionality.
Features
Ariens 546cc single cylinder engine
The C40 lawn tractor features a highly reliable, single cylinder 546cc Ariens engine.
Cast Front Axle
The heavy duty cast axle adds strength where it’s really needed on the tractor.
Dashboard display
Running hours, Powered Grass Collector and cutter deck indicators visible at all times.
Adjustable seat
All Countax models feature an ergonomically designed, automotive style sliding seat for greater operator comfort and safety.
Electrically operated power take-off (PTO)
This model features a push-button controlled power take-off. Users can choose from three PTO modes.
Hydrostatic transmission
The hydrostatic, foot-controlled transmission found on all Countax tractors is smooth and responsive. It is as easy to operate as the controls on an automatic car.
Park brake
The Countax park brake system is a cleverly designed safety feature. It prevents the tractor from starting unless the brake is engaged.
Next generation paintwork
Painted components have surpassed 500 hours of continuous salt spray exposure without corrosion.
Lightweight deck lift
The lightweight deck height selector can be adjusted through nine incremental settings to provide a cutting height of 12mm to 101mm (dependent on type of deck).
Noise reduction by design
All Countax products are designed to produce the lowest levels of noise. Not only does this make operating a Countax more comfortable, it also ensures that our products fall within the levels issued by EU noise legislation.
Includes Accessories
97cm (38") XRD deck
A tough, reinforced cutter deck designed to cut fully – even in wet weather. The Countax XRD is a new generation cutter deck built on the same platform as our legendary Interactive Blade System.
Unlike almost all other cutters available on the market, the XRD has three contra-rotating blades. This makes the deck highly efficient and it leaves almost no grass uncut. Clippings are thrown to the rear of the deck in to the path of the Powered Grass Collector.
The XRD is reinforced with a steel impact bar to protect it from the knocks and bumps of everyday use.
Powered Grass Collecter (PGC+)
The Countax PGC+ has been specifically designed for the British garden. This new accessory which is connected to the tractor’s power take-off, allows a range of interchangeable cassettes to be fitted to it, to achieve a range of garden tasks. There is no need to purchase standalone equipment, saving you both time and money.
It is more than just a grass collector, it transforms the Countax C or B Series garden tractor into a multi-use, year-round workhorse. Part of a cassette system, the PGC+ comes with a Grass Sweeper cassette fitted as standard. It makes a quick and efficient job of sweeping up and collecting grass clippings and leaves, even when the grass is wet.
There’s also an optional Scarifier cassette for removing and collecting thatch and moss in one action.
Grass Sweeper Cassette
Maintain the lawn all-year round with this powered Grass Sweeper cassette. A Countax garden tractor works in a different way to other machines. A heavy roller mounted to the rear of the PGC+ produces the quintessentially English striped lawn finish. The unique action of the Grass Sweeper’s brushes enhances this striping effect. A Countax stripes the lawn every time with a single pass of the PGC+.
The Grass Sweeper collects grass clippings, fallen leaves and other debris from the lawn. Fifty-one brushes rotate at over 1,100 strokes per minute to sweep cut grass and garden debris into the hopper. Even when the grass is wet, there is little risk of clogging.
The need to separately rake or vacuum your lawn is eliminated, saving time and effort. Simply drive over the material with the PGC+ engaged.
