Premium Striped Finish for Medium Lawns
The Hayter Harrier® 48 is a high-quality rear roller rotary lawnmower designed for discerning homeowners with medium-sized lawns up to 500 square metres. Its 48cm cutting width makes it an efficient choice for formal gardens, delivering the quintessentially British striped lawn finish. The self-propelled drive features variable speed control, allowing you to set a comfortable walking pace between 1.8 and 3.3mph.
Advanced Features for Ultimate Convenience
A standout feature is the Blade Brake Clutch (BBC) system. This invaluable function allows you to stop the cutting blade from rotating without switching off the engine. This is exceptionally useful when you need to cross a gravel path, move from one lawn area to another, or safely empty the large 70-litre grass bag. Powering the mower is the reliable Briggs & Stratton 650 EXi Series engine, equipped with ReadyStart® technology for hassle-free starting every time.
Engineered for Performance and Durability
The Harrier 48 is built to last. It features a robust aluminium cutter deck that is hard-wearing and comes with a lifetime warranty against cracking during normal use. The two-piece, ribbed polymer rear roller not only creates sharp stripes but also provides superior traction and manoeuvrability, preventing turf marking when turning. Hayter’s Vari-Pitch™ cutting technology and deck fins ensure a high-performing cut and collection system. The Trim Side deck design allows you to mow right up to the edges of borders and raised beds for a neat finish. Further practical features include a single lever for seven height-of-cut positions (13 – 60mm), folding handlebars for compact storage, an easy-wash hose connector for cleaning the deck, and the ability to collect fallen leaves in autumn.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What size lawn is the Hayter Harrier 48 suitable for?
The Hayter Harrier 48 is ideally suited for medium-sized formal lawns up to 500 square metres, which is roughly the size of two tennis courts. Its 19″ (48cm) cutting width provides a great balance of coverage and manoeuvrability for this lawn size.
What is a Blade Brake Clutch (BBC) and why is it useful?
A Blade Brake Clutch, or BBC, is a safety and convenience feature that allows you to disengage the cutting blade while keeping the engine running. This is extremely useful for emptying the grass bag, travelling across non-grass areas like paths or driveways, or pausing to remove an obstacle without having to restart the mower each time.
Does this mower create classic lawn stripes?
Yes, absolutely. The Hayter Harrier 48 is specifically designed to create a professional, striped finish. It features a two-piece, ribbed polymer rear roller that flattens the grass in the direction of travel, creating the light and dark stripes characteristic of a formal British lawn.
What type of engine does the Harrier 48 use?
This mower is powered by a reliable and efficient Briggs & Stratton 650 EXi Series engine. It is a 163cc, 4-stroke petrol engine featuring ReadyStart® technology, which eliminates the need to manually prime or choke the engine before starting.
