The Husqvarna YTH22V42 uses a Tuff Torq hydrostatic transmission to transfer power from the engine to the wheels. Because the transmission is a hydrostatic, it makes this 42 inch Husqvarna lawn mower an automatic with no need for you to change gears. To speed up and slow down, you just need to use the foot pedals. The mower deck on this machine is fabricated from stamped steel and uses aluminum spindles. There are 2 blades housed within the deck. The operator has 3 choices for dealing with grass clippings. The best option is to purchase the optional bagger to collect the clippings at the rear of the lawn mower. This will leave you lawn looking a lot cleaner. However this can be a little time consuming for some, as you obviously don’t want to spend all your time attaching and detaching bagger bags. If this is the case you can use a mulching kit instead or even just discharge the clippings out the side of the mower deck.
