What the specs work out to

Figures MowerFacts computes from Husqvarna’s own numbers — not published by the manufacturer.

Mowing time

  • ¼ acre12 min 8 min
  • ½ acre24 min 17 min
  • 1 acre49 min 34 min
  • 2 acres1 h 37 min 1 h 8 min
  • 5 acres4 h 3 min 2 h 50 min

About 49 min per acre at 1.24 acres/hour, mowing at 3.6 mph. The second figure is at the published 5.2 mph top speed (1.76 acres/hour) — faster than anyone really mows. About 3.1 acres per tank.

Gate & trailer fit

  • 32 in gateToo wide
  • 36 in gateToo wide
  • 48 in gateToo wide

Needs at least 49 in of clearance (estimated).

Power & run time

  • Power per deck inch0.452 hp/in
  • Run time per tank~2.5 h

Mowing times assume 1.24 acres/hour: deck width x 3.6 mph at 80% efficiency, which allows for overlap, turns and trimming. 3.6 mph is 70% of the 5.2 mph top speed Husqvarna publishes - almost nobody mows flat out. The "at top speed" figure is the same sum at 5.2 mph, shown so you can see it.

Fit uses the deck width plus 6 in for the discharge chute, because Husqvarna doesn't publish an overall width — measure before buying if a gate is tight.

Run time assumes a typical 1 gal/hour burn at working load; real consumption varies with engine, load and cut.
