The Husqvarna GTH2448 garden tractor lawn mower is fairly powerful machine similar to the likes of the Husqvarna YTH24V48LS or the Husqvarna LGT24K54 tractor lawn mowers. When originally buying it, it came with a choice of engines, either a Kohler Courage engine or a Briggs and Stratton Intek twin cylinder. Both of these engines are gasoline powered. The also both use a full pressure lubrication system to prevent too much wear while keeping the engine working properly. The engine is fed with gasoline from a 15.1 liter (4 US gallon) fuel tank. The engine on the GTH 2448 is keystarted using a 12 volt battery that supplies the engine with 280 cold cranking amps. Once the engine is running, it recharges the battery using a 16 amp alternator.

Power from the engine on the Husqvarna GTH2448 is transferred to the wheels through a hydrostatic transmission. This makes the GTH 2448 an automatic with no gear changing required. Instead the operator just needs to use the foot pedal to speed up or slow down. The hydrostatic transmission gives the lawnmower a top speed of 8.9 kph (5.5 mph). When it’s reversing, it has a top speed of 3.9 kph (2.4 mph).

The mower deck on the Husqvarna GTH2448 lawn tractor has a cutting width of 48 inches. Thanks to the fact that the engine provides 24 hp, it means that because the deck is relatively small, it can handle very long grass fairly easily. The deck on the GTH 2448 can be raised as high as 3.5 inches above your lawn and down as low as 0.5 inches above it over 6 different cutting heights. There are also a few different implements that can be used with this lawnmower. During the winter the front attached snow blower is probably the most useful, bit there are others like a rear bagger for collect the cut grass and a moss rake also.
