The Güde GAR 960 T Hydrostat is a lawn tractor for large properties up to 5,000 m². The 452 cm³ 4-stroke engine and hydrostatic transmission provide powerful, infinitely variable drive, and the 210-litre grass bag allows long mowing sessions without stopping to empty.
Your benefits
- A 96 cm cutting width and a driving speed of up to 8.7 km/h noticeably shorten mowing time on large areas.
- The 210-litre grass bag holds plenty of clippings before you need to stop and empty it.
- The hydrostatic transmission adjusts the speed seamlessly without gear changes – including when manoeuvring around beds and trees.
- Electric start, parking brake and switchable deck make operation simple and safe.
- Using the cleaning connection, you rinse out the deck with a garden hose instead of scraping it clean.
Equipment and features
The GAR 960 T is powered by a 4-stroke Power Engine S 1360 V with 452 cm³ displacement and 8.2 kW / 11.2 hp. It starts electrically with an ignition key; up to 8.7 km/h forwards and 3.0 km/h in reverse are possible. Oil capacity is 0.8 litres.
The deck cuts 96 cm wide and the cutting height is centrally adjusted in five steps. You can mow with the grass bag or with rear discharge and windrowing if the clippings are to stay on the lawn. A hose connection with wash nozzle is provided for cleaning. The tyres measure 18 inches at the rear and 13 inches at the front; a parking brake and switchable deck are part of the safety equipment.

Frequently asked questions
What size of area is the GAR 960 T designed for?
For lawns up to 5,000 m². With a 96 cm cutting width and a driving speed of up to 8.7 km/h, it handles even extensive properties in one session.
Do I always have to collect the clippings?
No. As well as the 210-litre grass bag, the tractor offers rear discharge with windrowing, which leaves the clippings on the lawn.
How is the cutting height set?
Centrally in five steps. So you do not have to adjust each wheel individually, but set the height in one place.
