Features
FRONT SWIVEL CASTER WHEELS
Front swivel caster wheel model offers increased ease of manueverability in highly landscaped areas. Swivel wheel accessory also available to convert fixed wheel models.
MILITARY-GRADE STEEL – DECK
Extra-strong fabricated (non-stamped) steel cutter deck features 14-gauge, grade 100 Military-Grade steel deck shell, 12-gauge spindle reinforcement plate and ¼” side reinforcement bar, all while delivering the quality-of-cut you’d expect from a Scag mower.
MILITARY-GRADE STEEL – FRAME
Extra-strong, fully fabricated steel frame (not cast aluminum). The Military-Grade steel spec used on the SFC30 is over 200% stronger than standard drawing steel found in common stamped frames and decks in this machine class.
FINE-TUNED AND SIMPLE
Adjust the height-of-cut from a single location rather than at all four corners or having to adjust the front and back tires separately. Refine your height settings with adjustments from 1.5” to 5” in .25” increments.
SIMPLIFIED DECK DRIVE SYSTEM
An offset blade design is less complex and easier to maintain than traditional timed deck setups. This more robust system results in potential belt replacements taking less than half the amount of time to repair/replace compared to timed deck systems. Image shown with bagging baffle.
UNMATCHED PERFORMANCE
The large cutting chamber helps process more grass while being able to eat through wet and lush spring time grasses more efficiently. Cutter deck discharge opening is oversized for its class.
ERGONOMIC CONTROLS
Angles of operator station controls match the natural angles of your outstretched hands. All controls are within easy reach: blade brake engagement, drive engagement, recoil start, throttle/choke, hour meter and park brake.
ACHIEVE MAXIMUM COMFORT
Oversized handles feature internally routed cables to protect from potential snags. Handle features tool-free adjustment, up and down, to fit operator height preference. Additional vertical adjustment setting for transportation or storage.
DESIGNED FOR VERSATILITY
Capable of 3-in-1 versatility, giving you the ability to mulch, bag or side-discharge. Mulching and bagging attachments come standard; side-discharge accessory is available. Side-discharge accessory available late Spring 2023.
3-IN-1 VERSATILITY
The SFC30 delivers the ability to discharge, mulch or bag. All options come as standard equipment, allowing the operator to change on the fly as needed. Discharge: discharge chute – Mulch: deck plug and mulch plate – Bag: bagging baffle, mulch plate and fabric bag
MAXIMUM POWER FOR TOUGH CUTS
The combination of a GT MV702 best-in-class transmission and Kohler CV224 engine bring the power for optimum performance in the toughest of cutting conditions.
