Exceptional Performance for Large Lawns
The Honda HF 2417 HME is one of the latest generation models in Honda’s lawn tractor range, engineered for property owners with very large gardens. It is ideally suited for lawns up to 6,000m² (approximately 1.5 acres), combining robust power with user-centric features. At its core is a new Euro 5 compliant, 4-stroke OHC V-twin GCV530 engine, which delivers reliable power and performance. The variable hydrostatic drive provides smooth, pedal-controlled speed adjustment, making it effortless to manoeuvre around obstacles and achieve the perfect pace for the conditions, with a progressive driving speed up to 8.2 km/h.
Advanced Cutting with Versamow® Technology
The 102cm (40″) cutting deck is equipped with two synchronous blades, ensuring a neat and consistent cut across wide areas. Honda’s Optiflow system optimises airflow to the large 300-litre grass bag, maximising collection efficiency and reducing the frequency of stops to empty clippings. The standout feature is Honda’s Versamow® selective mulching system. With a single lever, the operator can instantly switch between collecting grass cuttings or finely shredding and returning them to the lawn as a natural fertiliser, all without needing to change blades or install a separate plug.
Operator Comfort and Modern Convenience
Honda has prioritised operator comfort in the HF 2417 HME. The tractor features a soft-grip steering wheel and a modern, full-colour LCD display that provides clear information at a glance. For added convenience during long mowing sessions, it includes a USB charging port and a device holder. A new Speed Hold System allows the operator to set and maintain one of four pre-set speeds (2, 3, 5, or 6 km/h), reducing fatigue and ensuring a consistent finish. The versatility of this lawn tractor can be expanded with an optional rear deflector or tow hitch, available to order from Sims Garden Machinery.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What size lawn is the Honda HF 2417 HME suitable for?
The Honda HF 2417 HME is specifically designed for very large gardens. It is officially recommended for lawns up to 6,000m², which is equivalent to approximately 1.5 acres, making it an excellent choice for substantial residential properties.
How does the Versamow® selective mulching system work?
The Versamow® system allows you to easily switch between collecting grass clippings and mulching them. A single lever, conveniently located for the operator, opens or closes a shutter at the rear of the cutting deck. When open, clippings are directed to the grass bag. When closed, they are finely re-cut and distributed back onto the lawn as a natural fertiliser. This can be done on the move without any tools or additional parts.
What is hydrostatic transmission?
Hydrostatic transmission functions much like an automatic gearbox in a car. It uses fluid pressure to transfer power from the engine to the wheels. For the operator, this means simple, intuitive control over speed and direction using foot pedals—one for forward and one for reverse. It allows for smooth, stepless speed adjustments, which is ideal for navigating around trees, flowerbeds, and other obstacles.
Does this lawn tractor arrive ready to use?
When you purchase from Sims Garden Machinery for local delivery, yes. Every ride-on mower undergoes a thorough Pre-Delivery Inspection (PDI) by our trained mechanics. We assemble it, add oil and fuel, and test it to ensure it’s in perfect working condition. We then deliver it personally and provide a handover to show you how to operate it safely. For national pallet deliveries, the tractor will be fully assembled and checked, but may require minor setup like attaching the steering wheel or seat.
