Compact power with key-start convenience

A self-propelled petrol mower designed to make smaller lawns easier.

The TG40SE combines a compact 40cm steel deck with powered drive and electric key starting. It is designed for small-to-medium lawns where easier starting, controlled handling and flexible clipping management matter.

01
Turn-key starting

Electric key ignition reduces the effort required to begin mowing, while recoil start remains available as a backup.

02
Powered forward drive

The self-propelled system moves the mower while the operator controls direction and pace.

03
Three mowing outcomes

Collect for a tidy result, side-discharge longer growth or mulch fine clippings back into the turf.

Starting system

Battery tray and key-start hardware

The electric-start system is supported by a recoil starter, so the mower is not dependent on a charged battery for every use.

Compact petrol power
Engine

Compact petrol power

The 139cc OHV engine is sized for the mower’s 40cm working width and everyday domestic mowing.

Single-lever height adjustment
Cutting control

Single-lever height adjustment

Seven listed positions from 25mm to 75mm allow quick seasonal changes without adjusting each wheel individually.

Working modes

Choose the clipping result that matches the grass.

The mower can be configured for a clean collected finish, faster clearance of longer growth or nutrient-returning mulching.

01
Collection

Use the 40-litre textile collector when presentation and clipping removal are the priority.

02
Side discharge

Direct longer clippings away from the deck when grass is less frequently maintained.

03
Mulching

Recycle finely cut clippings into the lawn when conditions are suitable.

Maintain the battery

Keep the electric-start battery charged and retain the recoil method as the operational backup.

03 Seasonal use

Change cutting mode

Match collection, discharge or mulching to grass length, moisture and the required finish.
