Ransomes Jacobsen, the Ipswich-based manufacturer and distributor of turf maintenance equipment, has introduced a refreshed and updated range of the popular Iseki SXG compact tractor mowers. 

The new Iseki SXG range: 326, 323 and 216

The entry level machine is the Iseki SXG216, which provides year round, all weather cut and collection for today’s home owners and gardeners. Combined with a compact design, exceptional manoeuvrability, a dial-in height of cut adjustment system, efficient fuel economy and ease of use, the SXG216 is an unbeatable package.

Like all SXG mowers it features blower-less collection, which reduces the noise level for the operator and a large 320 litre low-dump collector with hydraulically-assisted tipping mechanism. Using a 1.02 metre (40”) mid-mounted deck it cuts and collects in wet conditions like no other comparable sit-on mower.

The larger SXG323 offers power, performance and unsurpassed productivity. A 1.22 metre (48”) mower deck with wider overlapping provides a superior quality of cut and the large capacity, high torque 1,123cc diesel engine is powerful and fuel efficient. A new design for the operator platform provides increased leg room and an automotive-style instrument panel provides clear information.

Dial-in height adjustment

Like the SXG216 it features an easy-to-use dial-in height of cut adjustment system and has improved engine bay access, wider floors for safer operation and an easy-fill fuel tank with 21 litre capacity. A high dump collector and road homologated (street legal) options are available.

Designed for the most demanding users the SXG326 is tough, reliable and productive. It features a larger operator platform for a comfortable working environment and has an impressive collection capacity of 600 litres. There’s a choice of 1.22 metre (48”) or 1.37m (54”) mower decks with wider overlapping blades, providing enhanced productivity and a superior quality of cut, especially in wet conditions.

The high dump collector comes as standard on this model with low dump an optional extra. Both collectors are easy to remove for simple cleaning and maintenance operations and, as with the SXG323, a road homologated version with lighting kit and handbrake is also available.
