The Snapper NXT19542 riding mower is part of the Snapper NXT series of riding mowers. This mower is one of the least powerful that Snapper produces. It mows grass with its mower deck that has a cutting width of just 42 inches. The NXT 19542 mower has 2 blades inside. These blades cut at a height between 1. 5 inches and 4 inches. The height of the blades is electrically controlled. This electric raising and lowering of the mower deck results in infinite cutting heights. The mower deck is attached to the 2WD mower frame that is constructed of 12 gauge steel.
Instead of using a pull cord, recoil system or key start system, the Snapper NXT19542 uses a push button start system that uses a 12 volt battery that supplies 230 cold cranking amps. This battery is recharged by an alternator once the engine is running. Although the NXT 19542 does not have a very wide cutting deck, it does have the advantage of being able to turn incredibly tight. It has a minimum turning radius of only 14 inches. Unlike virtually every other mower manufacturer, Snapper has fitted this mower with a mesh seat. This clever seat material means it won’t collect water if left out in the open and it’s also breathable.
The Snapper NXT19542 is powered by a small Briggs and Stratton Professional series engine that is rated at just 19. 5hp. This engine has a single cylinder. It drives the rear wheels by passing power through a hydrostatic transmission. This transmission gives the NXT 19542 a top speed of 9 km/h. If this machine doesn’t have enough power for your needs, you might be interested in the Snapper NXT2346 riding mower or the Snapper NXT2752.
