The “entry level” segment of the Gianni Ferrari Group is made up of manoeuvrable small size machines that guarantee high productivity, with optimal cutting and collection performance that is equal to higher segment machines.
GTM and GTR are the stars of this segment: with their differences, these machines compensate and offer both hobbyist and green area maintenance operators the perfect solution for any need. Both are characterised by a direct collection system, having a grasscatcher holding 280 litres.
GTM is a professional grass collection rider that concentrates technical characteristics and top range finishes with a maximum width of only 85 cm: it can easily pass even through reduced spaces such as pedestrian gates, bushes, trees, plants and flowerbeds, guaranteeing optimal results.
Optimal for home use and also ideal for professional maintenance. The small turning radius brings out its agility and ease in manoeuvres.
CUTTING SYSTEM
The 80 cm mid cut is obtained using a single blade with shock-absorbing floating blades. The PTO is engaged to rotate the blade using a button that activates the electromagnetic clutch, which is reinforced and has life extending system which is adjustable in the event of wear. The deck shell is treated with a special cataphoresis paint treatment that protects it from the corrosion which could occur from the cut grass. In order to protect it from impacts, the deck shell is also reinforced with a 5 mm thick steel profile on the side of the grass chute. The deck is equipped with front and rear anti-scalp rollers, adjustable in 2 positions, and is also configured for side discharge.

EASY MAINTENANCE
To remove the blades it is not necessary to lift the machine or take apart the deck: this operation can be completed in a few minutes and in any condition. A quick-release coupling for the water pipe makes deck cleaning easier.
DIRECT CUT AND COLLECTION
GMT guarantees a clean and uniform cut over the entire width: the external overall size of the wheels, both front and rear, is less than the width of the deck. This means that the wheels do not tread beyond the cutting width, and the grass remains straight for the next pass. The floating blades are fitted with a shovelling system giving an aerodynamic movement of air and forcing the cut grass through to the grasscatcher.
- Great efficiency and productivity
- Reduced overall dimensions
- No clogging with high and wet grass
ENGINES
The GTM is available in two petrol versions:
- 15.5 HP single cylinder engine
- 16 HP twin cylinder engine
The double air filtering element and the forced oil lubrication system, guarantee optimal yield for both engines and extend protection and life cycle.
Access to the engine is easy and very quick and does not require use of attachments: in a few seconds it is possible to inspect filters and oil level, access relays, fuses and the battery.

GTR is a front mower that brings together agility, compactness, extreme ease of use and professional performance, with the plus of greater visibility for impeccable work results.
A machine that is extremely manoeuvrable and reduces manoeuvres, finishing operations and work time.
CUTTING SYSTEM
The front cutting deck maximises visibility and work control. The grass is not trampled therefore cut quality is increased. The extreme manoeuvrability makes it possible to reach the areas that are less accessible for common front decks, making finishing operations around trees, flower beds and walls easier. The deck is equipped with two retractable blades that absorb collisions and safeguard the transmission from any impact with foreign objects present on the lawn. Installed on a cart with full rubber anti-puncture wheels, the cutting deck floats and naturally adapts to the terrain, resulting in a cut that is always accurate.

DIRECT CUT AND COLLECTION
The opposite rotation blades are equipped with a shovelling system that give the grass a strong aerodynamic thrust and channel it directly into the grasscatcher through a collection tube shaped and designed to support the parabolic trajectory of the cut grass flow.
The collection tube is equipped with a hatch that can be opened to make inspection and cleaning easier.
- Greater work visibility
- Extreme manoeuvrability
- Optimal cutting and collection yield
ENGINES
GTR includes two commercial 2-cylinder petrol engines designed for industrial applications and with
high performance even in most demanding operating conditions:
- 16 HP twin cylinder engine
- 21 HP twin cylinder engine
The large 19 litre fuel tank allows for longer work periods without refuelling and is equipped with a convenient fuel level gauge. The double air filtering element and the forced oil lubrication system extend engine protection and life cycle, while the over head valves (OHV) reduce vibrations, emission and have better fuel economy.

TRACTION AND MANOEUVRABILITY
The steering mechanisms is light, precise, solid and sturdy, made with rack and pinion and with steering shaft on the rear wheels.
The 2WD traction on the front wheels ensures optimal manoeuvrability thanks to a very tight turning radius. The rear oscillating axle is mounted on ball-bearings and is made from a press-forged steel single block in order achieve maximum solidity.
The low centre of gravity and the weight distribution ratio on the axis provide further manoeuvring comfort, in order to provide a simple and pleasant driving experience.

GRASSCATCHER
The large 280 litre Grasscatcher is a black mesh bag treated with an anti-UV additive on a steel tubular frame. The standard issue audible buzzer warning advises the operator to disengage the PTO when the Grasscatcher is full, thus preventing the obstruction or clogging of the collection chute. The Grasscatcher emptying process is servo-assisted by a gas spring that at a minimum reduces strain on the operator. Comfortably from the driving position, the grass emptying grasscatcher is activated using the lever on the right.
An (optional) electrical emptying system is available and can be activated by simply pressing a button. The bottom of the Grasscatcher can be easily removed for cut with rear discharge.
