Description

Overview
The Husqvarna TS 242XD is an elite, high-performance riding mower engineered for homeowners who demand a professional-grade cut and superior handling on challenging terrain. Powered by a robust 21.5 HP Kawasaki® FR Series V-Twin engine, this tractor delivers smooth, reliable power and the high-torque performance necessary for maintaining large residential properties. At its foundation is the 42-inch ClearCut™ fabricated steel deck, a 10-gauge welded masterpiece that offers significantly better durability and airflow than standard stamped decks, ensuring a clean and precise cut whether you are bagging, mulching, or discharging.
Designed for maximum traction and operator control, the TS 242XD features a Tuff Torq hydrostatic transmission with an automatic locking differential. This system automatically senses when a rear wheel is slipping and locks the differential to provide power to both wheels, making it the ideal choice for mowing on slopes, damp grass, or uneven ground. With its heavy-duty steel frame, cast iron front axle, and solid steel hood, this “X-line” model is built to provide an all-around premium mowing experience, season after season.
