THE CUT

MicroCut® twin blades for finer clippings

The HRN216VKC’s Twin Blade MicroCut® system reduces clippings into finer pieces for improved mulching and more efficient bagging, producing a cleaner finish on established lawns.

THE CONTROL

Variable speed and seven cutting positions

A Variable Speed Select Drive® lets you set ground speed up to 4 mph while a 7‑position, 4‑wheel height adjustment gives cutting heights from 1 1/8 inch to 4 inches for precise results on different grasses.

THE UTILITIES

3‑in‑1 versatility and practical features

Use the Clip Director® to mulch, bag into the 1.9‑bushel grass bag, or discharge clippings; safety and convenience features include the Roto‑Stop® blade stop system and a compact 21‑inch steel deck.

What the day feels like

What renting the HRN216VKC feels like

Renting the HRN216VKC trades heavy lawn chores for mechanical precision: engage the Honda GCV170 engine, set the variable speed to match your stride, dial in one of seven cutting heights and choose mulch, bag or discharge to suit the day’s cleanup. The combination of the MicroCut® blades and a 21‑inch deck makes methodical, efficient passes across small to medium lawns a straightforward, even enjoyable task.
