STIGA is rapidly becoming known as the innovators in garden lawnmowers and equipment and its latest development is a handlebar system that moves to the side to avoid shrubs and trees and allow easier mowing against a hedge or wall.

The STIGA Fulcrum handlebar system is fitted to a number of STIGA lawnmowers and provides seamless interaction between the machine and the gardener. The central mechanism is mounted below the steering handle, which is made from 25mm steel.  It is simply adjusted to suit the gardener’s height and comfort preference.

A click of a switch allows the handle position to be shifted by 25 degrees to the left to avoid overhanging shrubs or trees and to allow easier cutting along hedges and walls.

When the mowing is completed, a quick release lever allows the handle to rotate 180 degrees so it can be stowed above the mowing deck, saving space during storage.

The Fulcrum handlebar can now be seen on many lawnmowers with the STIGA range.
