618 PowerSafe®
Motor mower with mechanical transmission and PowerSafe® hydraulic clutch.
618 PowerSafe® is a semi-professional motor mower with reduced weight and dimensions intended for demanding individuals.
Easy to handle thanks to the presence of the differential, it is ideal for mowing grass and fodder on small and medium-sized plots of land.
Also as standard, the 618 PowerSafe® motor mower is equipped with aluminium guards on the wheels’ axle to prevent the grass from wrapping itself around the wheel hubs during the mowing.

Honda Alps motors for steep slopes.
Thanks to specific technical solutions, the Honda Alps gasoline engines make it possible to work even on slopes exceeding a 30-degree gradient, without loss of performance or any failures.
PowerSafe® hydraulic clutch.
PowerSafe® hydraulic clutch
Unique and inimitable.
The exclusive PowerSafe® clutch with hydraulically-operated multiple steel disc in oil bath, not only guarantees maximum reliability but also greater operational comfort, safety and high performance in any conditions of use.
Axle with differential.
The differential allows the two drive wheels of the motor mower to rotate at different speeds, especially when turning, offering several advantages:
-
Improved maneuverability: during steering, the inner wheel travels a shorter path than the outer one; the differential enables this difference in rotation, making the turn smooth.
-
Reduced effort: the operator does not have to forcefully correct the trajectory.
-
Greater operating comfort: especially on flat terrain or with good grip.
By locking the differential using a lever on the handlebar, the two wheels are instead forced to rotate at the same speed, providing the following benefits:
-
Maximum traction: useful on uneven, muddy, snowy or slippery ground.
-
No power loss: prevents one wheel from spinning while the other remains stationary.
Driving position.
Safety.
- Forward motion of the machine and activation of the power take-off is only permitted with the red safety lever actuated.
When the operator releases the handlebar, the PowerSafe® hydraulic clutch ensures the immediate stop of both the PTO and wheel traction, without shutting off the engine.
Work can be resumed safely thanks to the dual-action system, which requires pulling the clutch lever before lowering the red safety lever.
Three-pronged power take-off.
Three-pronged power take-off
Exclusive patented system.
The PTO, which is independent of the gearbox with oil-bath engagement, features the unique and patented three-pronged engagement system to transfer power from the engine to the attachment.
