The Husqvarna WHF3617 lawn mower is powered by a Kawasaki twin-cylinder engine. This engine uses a dry-type air filter to prevent dust and other particles from entering the combustion chamber during operation, which could disrupt the ignition cycle. The engine power is 17 hp. The engine takes gasoline from a tank that can hold up to 20. 1 liters. This motor transfers power to the wheels through a combination of a Kanzaki pump and a Parker wheel motor. This system gives the WHF 3617 mower a top speed of 11. 3 km/h (7 mph). Steering and power are controlled with pistol grips.
The deck on the Husqvarna WHF3617 mower has a 36-inch cutting width. It is a floating deck made of 10-gauge steel that has 7-gauge steel side skirts. The mower deck can cut grass as low as 1. 5 inches above the ground and as high as 6 inches above the ground. The two blades of the WHF 3617 are meshed by means of an electric clutch. The blades rotate through a belt drive system. Each cutting deck blade has an overall length of 18 inches. The mower deck is raised and lowered by a spring-assisted lever.
The front wheels of the Husqvarna WHF3617 mower are attached to heavy-duty forks that are very strong and durable, making it easy to turn the self-propelled mower. The overall length of the WHF 3617 is 73 inches. The overall height of the mower from the ground to the top of the handles is 42 inches.
