SAFETY FIRST
If you want a mower with all the bells and whistles, look no further. Teamed with Honda's uncompromising stance on user safety, the HRX217K6HYUA has it all going for it.
The Mow-Safe Technology™ featured in the HRX217 lawnmower uses Blade Brake technology, stopping the blade within three seconds of releasing the handle allowing the engine to continue running. This allows you to step away from the mower to clear away hazards, empty the catcher or take a short break without having to restart the engine.
LIGHTWEIGHT NEXITE™ DECK
The HRX217 lawnmower features an incredibly tough NeXite™ 21” cutting deck. This high impact-resistant material does not dent, rust or corrode and because it's lightweight can easily manoeuvre around your lawn. Honda are so confident in NeXite™ that it comes with a lifetime guarantee.
VERSAMOW SYSTEM™
The HRX217 lawnmower features Honda's revolutionary Versamow System™, which allows you to mulch, bag, discharge, or shred leaves – or even a combination of mulching and bagging! Just slide the convenient Clip Director® knob to choose how much grass is bagged or mulched. It's the ultimate in convenience and versatility.
HYDROSTATIC CRUISE CONTROL
HRX217 lawnmower is fully self-propelled by Hydrostatic Cruise Control making your job incomparably easier. If you spend hours mowing or like to take it easier, the HRX217 lawnmower will do the work for you.
Also featured on the HRX217 is Honda’s exclusive twin blade MicroCut® System, which uses four cutting surfaces instead of two. The results are evident in the ultra fine clippings and superior mulching. The clippings are finer than on a regular mower, you’ll be able to mow up to 30% further before you have to empty the catcher bag and your lawn will look great!
THE LATEST HONDA ENGINE
Powered by the brand new, incredibly reliable and consistent the GCV200. A long-lasting, 5.6 horsepower-class engine, the one pull start, four-stroke GCV200 features overhead valve and overhead cam technology.
- AUTO CHOKE - The Honda Auto Choke System (ACS) on the new GCV200 engine allows for dependable starts, regardless of hot or cold weather conditions. This automatic, user-friendly system eliminates the need for levers and cables and once the engine is running, the ACS automatically adjusts to the optimal operating position.
- TOUGH NEXITE DECK - The HRX217 features an incredibly tough NeXite™ 21” cutting deck, which is lightweight but tough enough to handle even the most trying of Australian conditions. This high impact-resistant material does not dent, rust or corrode, and the lightweight design means you can easily manoeuvre it around your lawn.
- VERSAMOW™ - The HRX217 features Honda's revolutionary Versamow System™, which allows you to mulch, bag, discharge, or shred leaves - or even a combination of mulching and bagging! Just slide the convenient Clip Director® knob to choose how much grass is bagged or mulched. It's the ultimate in convenience and versatility. Want to mulch, but worried about leaving clumps? No problem. The Versamow System™ helps you to mulch or partially mulch even in severe conditions. Just adjust the 10 position Clip Director to the right setting for your lawn. The Versamow System™ makes leaf shredding easy. Tiny pieces minimize the use of leaf bags for collecting debris. No attachments or tools are necessary.
- HYRDROSTATIC CRUISE CONTROL - Handy if you’re pushing for long hours, the HRX217 mowers are fully Self-Propelled by Hydrostatic Cruise Control. This represents simple, precise speed control that’s fully adjustable from 0-6 kp/h. You’ll save your back, shoulders and arms by letting the mower do the work for you!
- SAFETY FIRST - Honda is renowned for its uncompromising stance on user safety, and keeping with that approach, the Mow-Safe Technology® inherent in the HRX217 is bound to impress in both residential and commercial settings. It includes Blade Brake technology, which stops the blade within three seconds of releasing the handle, allowing the engine to continue running. This technology allows you to step away from the mower to clear away hazards, empty the catcher or just take a quick break, without having to restart the engine.
- MICRO CUT SYSTEM - Also featured on the HRX217 is Honda’s exclusive twin blade MicroCut® System, which uses four cutting surfaces instead of two. The results are evident in the ultra fine clippings and superior mulching that you’ll get. Because the clippings are finer than on a regular mower, you’ll be able to mow up to 30% further before you have to empty the catcher bag. Again, this is designed with you, the user, in mind. The perfect cut has never been easier.
- TACKLE THE TOUGH JOBS - Research and development, combined with user feedback, have driven new advancements for this innovative upgrade. Today’s HRX Series is designed to deliver an ultimately user-friendly platform, which provides the most satisfying lawn mowing experience yet. Beginning with the power plant, the first Honda mowers to incorporate an all-new GCV200 engine, the most powerful lawnmower engine available in the Honda range. As the engine is responsible for generating the torque power on a lawn mower, more torque means more force is delivered to the blades, which results in easier and faster cutting—especially in heavy, thick grass where stalling is more prevalent. In addition to delivering more torque, the Honda GCV200 weighs, on average, 6% less than the GCV190. A brand-new Brake Blade clutch (with 14% more capacity) has been designed to cope with the increased power.
