Honda

Firsts

in Advanced Technology

The First Lawn Mower to Feature the

Roto-Stop

®

BBC

In 1978, Honda introduced the BBC

(Roto-Stop

®

) on the HR21 as a safety and convenience feature that stopped the blade while the engine was running. It was so revolutionary that it helped establish new lawnmower safety regulations in the U.S. The Roto-Stop

®

Blade Stop System is currently available on the HRXHZA, HRXHYA, HRRVYA and HRCHXA.

The First Lawn Mower to Feature an

Overhead Valve Engine

Developed in 1983, Honda was the first manufacturer to use a four stroke, overhead valve engine on a walk behind lawn mower. The advantage to consumers was that the engine was much quieter, used less fuel and had a dramatically longer engine life.

The First Lawn Mower to Feature a

Hydrostatic Drive

Honda is the only manufacturer to offer a Hydrostatic transmission on a 21" walk behind mower, providing precise and repeatable speed settings across all mowing conditions. Available on the HRXHZA, HRXHYA, and HRCHXA models.

The First Lawn Mower to Feature an

Overhead Cam Engine

Honda was the first lawn mower manufacturer to develop an overhead cam engine for use on a walk behind lawn mower. Introduced in 1997, the GCV160 engine offers lighter weight, higher fuel efficiency and the world’s first small engine internal timing belt.

The First Lawn Mower to Feature a

NeXite

®

Deck

Honda is the only manufacturer to use NeXite

®

, a rust-proof, dent-proof material for its HRX mowing decks, backed with a lifetime warranty. NeXite

®

is so strong that it can stand the weight of a parked vehicle. (Not that we recommend this!) Exclusively available on the HRX series.

The First Lawn Mower to Feature the

Versamow System

™

The Versamow System

™

, developed and introduced by Honda in 2003, is the only one of its kind, giving the user complete flexibility and control of grass flow during the mulching or bagging process. Exclusively available on the

HRX series.

The Twin Blade Advantage

No matter which Honda Lawn when mulching, it’s easier for

Mower you choose, you’ll get an exclusive feature no one else offers, The Twin Blade Advantage.

With each rotation of the blades, your lawn is cut, then cut again for a smooth, even surface. But that’s just the beginning. Twin blades repeatedly chop up each blade of grass, producing finer clippings, and that means valuable nutrients to go back onto your lawn to help feed it and keep it green. It also means when bagging, you’ll be emptying a lot less often because the smaller clippings allow your bag to hold more. A perfect cut, better lawn care and less work for you, that’s the Twin Blade

Advantage— only on Honda Lawn Mowers.
