It is a two-cylinder engine that uses a full-pressure lubrication system to keep the working parts running smoothly. The total displacement of this engine is 0. 724 liters. The YTH 23V42LS is a gasoline machine and has a fuel tank that can hold up to 15. 1 liters of gasoline. The engine transfers power to the mower’s wheels via a hydrostatic transmission system, giving you infinite speeds in both forward and reverse without having to worry about changing gears.
The Husqvarna YTH23V42LS has a locking rear diff which helps give it a very low minimum turning radius, making it very capable even in very small yards. The engine also drives the mower deck. This deck has a 42-inch width of cut and houses 2 identical blades. The blades are belt driven and engaged by an electric clutch mechanism. On the outer edges of the mower deck, you’ll notice a series of small plastic wheels that guide the deck along the contours of the grass you’re cutting without allowing it to hit the grass, which can often leave ugly scars on the lawn.
