Powerful petrol lawnmower with 5-in-1 system, which allows grass collection in a basket, mulching, rear and side discharge. With a powerful 196cc four-stroke engine, robust construction and a wide reach, it is ideal for regular maintenance of medium to large gardens.
At the heart of the mower is the 196cc, four-stroke, single-cylinder, air-cooled, OHV engine Y196V. Maximum engine power is approximately 4.2 kW (approx. 5.7 HP) at 3,600 rpm, with maximum torque of 12 Nm at 3,000 rpm. The engine is equipped with TDI electronic ignition, which ensures reliable starting and stable running. Fuel is unleaded petrol (E10) and the fuel tank has a capacity of 1 litre. For proper engine operation, HECHT 4T or SAE 10W-30 oil is recommended, with an oil capacity of 0.6 litres.
The mower is equipped with a wide cutting width, which allows for fast and efficient mowing of larger areas. Thanks to the central cutting height adjustment, the cutting height can be easily adapted to the actual lawn conditions. The robust steel chassis ensures high durability and long service life even with regular use. The large collection basket allows you to mow a larger area without frequent emptying, which significantly increases your working comfort.
The 5-in-1 system makes the mower very versatile. The user can choose between classic grass collection in the basket, side or rear discharge or mulching. The mulching function finely cuts the grass and returns it to the lawn as natural fertiliser, promoting healthy growth and reducing the need for fertiliser.
The large wheels and ergonomically shaped handle ensure easy handling even on rough terrain. The design is designed to make working with the mower comfortable even for longer mowing sessions. The stable chassis and balanced centre of gravity also contribute to safe and precise work.
Safety and recommendations
When using a petrol lawnmower, it is important to observe the basic safety rules. Before each use, it is advisable to check the oil and fuel level and make sure that all safety features are working properly. Never use the mower in enclosed or poorly ventilated areas as the combustion engine produces exhaust fumes. Regular maintenance is also recommended, such as cleaning the undercarriage, checking the blade and changing the air filter or spark plug. Proper maintenance will ensure a long machine life and optimum performance every time you mow.
Thanks to the combination of a powerful engine, large working width and multifunctional mowing system, the HECHT 552 XR is a reliable helper for anyone who wants a perfectly maintained lawn without unnecessary effort.
