Kubota is expanding its FC mower range with the introduction of the Kubota FC3-221E, a compact, agile, and versatile centre-collect machine ideal for various applications, including residential gardens, schools, recreational areas, as well as large-scale sports facilities.
The new 2WD FC3-221E offers exceptional accessibility, with a seating position that provides operators with full visibility of the mower deck, ensuring increased control and precision for every operation. Equipped with a state-of-the-art digital instrument display, operators have real-time access to vital operating information, facilitating informed decision-making and optimized performance.
Exceptional ‘Cut and Collect’ Performance
Precision-engineered, the mounting and positioning of the mower deck meticulously follow the contours of the ground. The front-mounted deck configuration further enhances performance by generating optimal air pressure beneath the housing.
This approach ensures a smoother cut and facilitates the seamless flow of grass cuttings to the collector turbine, situated at the heart of the machine’s functionality. This patented design element significantly reduces the distance traveled by the cut grass, enabling rapid and efficient grass collection.
Moreover, the FC3-221E features an expansive 600-litre grass collector, enabling operators to cover significant areas before requiring emptying.
Power
Powered by the efficient Kubota D902 engine, the 22hp FC3-221E provides the necessary power and torque to drive the hydrostatic transmission and hydraulic system effortlessly. Paired with hydraulic power steering, a soft-grip steering wheel, and a steering knob, this setup guarantees exceptional maneuverability. Enhanced by a deluxe padded suspension seat, adjustable armrests, and a high backrest, all tasks can be comfortably managed.
The front mower decks are equipped with two pairs of blades per rotor, offering distinct advantages over mid-mount configurations. By eliminating grass traversal before cutting, the two-wheel-drive configuration offers greater maneuverability and precision in areas inaccessible to mid-mount setups. Available in 1.12m (44”) and 1.26m (50”) wide deck variants, this new Kubota mower ensures a finer cut and accelerated mowing. The machine’s versatility is further enhanced by the option to attach either a flail mower, a snow blade, or even a vacuum hose.
Accessibility in Maintenance
Maintenance access is prioritized on the FC3-221E to ensure longevity and reliability. By lifting the high-tip collector and the operator platform, access to the engine compartment becomes easily reachable. All routine maintenance tasks can be conducted safely and efficiently, with ample space to access and service components.
