The Husqvarna 2246LS riding mower is an improved and more powerful model than the Husqvarna 2042LS. It also shares many similarities with the Husqvarna YTH2246 riding mower, as both have the same power and cutting width. The engine that powers the 2246 LS is a Briggs and Stratton twin with cast iron liners. This engine has a total volume of 0. 721 liters and is part of Briggs and Stratton’s Endurance series. The engine uses a full pressure lubrication system to ensure everything runs smoothly and without excessive wear. The power output of this engine is 22 hp.
Fortunately, the Husqvarna 2246LS lawn tractor is hydrostatic/automatic. This means that to control the speed of it, you only have to use the pedal to accelerate or brake, there is no gear changing at all. The engine powers the mower deck that is 46 inches wide. To be exact, the cutting width of the mower deck is 46 inches. Its overall width is actually a bit greater than this, as there’s a plastic flap on the side of the deck that stops grass clippings (and other debris) from flying everywhere.
The Husqvarna 2246LS mower deck has 6 different operating heights, from a minimum height of 0. 05 inches above the grass to a maximum height of 3. 5 inches above the grass. Raising and lowering the deck is done with a spring-assisted hand lever, so it’s fairly easy to raise and lower the deck. The platform has 2 blades. The operator’s seat on the 2246 LS has a 15-inch high back to offer great support and comfort for those who use it for long, uninterrupted sessions. The fuel tank of this tractor can hold up to 9. 5 liters of gasoline. There are also optional accessories for this mower.
