Snapper 331723BVE Hi-Vac rear-engine riding mower

Date Published: 5/4/06

One of Snapper's top Hi-Vac models, the 331723BVE Hi-Vac rear-engine riding mower features the manufacturer's effective vacuum system, which inhales grass clippings and other debris as it cuts. The mower's durable solid-steel frame pivots to adjust to the contours of your lawn, and the quick-response steering provides exceptional control. The five-position deck lift lets you adjust the height of cut to between 1.5 and 4 inches.

The transmission on the 331723BVE Hi-Vac rear-engine riding mower features five-speed, on-the-go shifting, and the powerful 17-horsepower Briggs & Stratton engine propels the mower up to 4.6 miles per hour. This model features 16-inch tires, which provide a comfortable ride and don't tear up the turf, a 33-inch deck, and an electric starter with recoil backup. One of the mower's most intriguing features is its ability to be stood on its rear end, making it simple to clean and convenient to store. The 331723BVE Hi-Vac rear-engine riding mower features a 2-year residential warranty.
