The 8400 can handle virtually any type of terrain, especially hard-to-mow hilly areas. A low center of gravity gives the machine control on hills, while the power of hydrostatic drive takes you up and down steep slopes with ease. Without question, the 8400 is the “King of the Hill.” Whether you’re tackling berms, bunkers, edging or curbs, this mower can handle them all. And it makes tough mowing jobs comfortable with power steering and a smooth, cushioned ride. The hydrostatic drive provides independent reel and ground speeds for the finest reel cut of any mower in the industry. You always get a perfect cut — whether you’re slowing down to trim or speeding up in more open areas. As an added benefit, electric reel clutches let you turn all three cutting reels on or off with a flip of a switch. And power steering gives you ultimate control, allowing you to handle tight turns, mow around a tree or follow the contour of a bunker — all in one smooth, easy maneuver.
