The Cobra Fortis 20B delivers a professional, scissor-cut bowling-green finish and classic British stripes to medium or large lawns, all without the premium commercial price tag. Powered by a robust Briggs & Stratton engine, It pairs with a heavy-duty roller drive, delivering the relentless torque and endurance needed to effortlessly maintain bowling-green-quality turf, even across larger spaces. This self-propelled mower features the fortis ingenious interchangeable cassette system that lets you instantly swap the 6 blade cutting cylinder for a 8 or 10 blade cartridge, alternatively you you transform your mower ino a scarifier, aerator, dethatcher or lawn brush, giving you a complete, year-round lawn care system in one highly versatile and highly capable machine.
Why You Should Buy It
• The Scissors-Action Cut; The 20-inch, 6-bladed hardened steel cylinder utilizes a scissor-like action. It slices each blade of grass cleanly instead of chopping it. This drastically reduces the trauma to the grass plant, preventing browning at the tips and protecting your turf from disease. At 20" the cutting path will be wide enough to tackle any lawn.
• Professional Striping; If you want those sharp, defined, long-lasting British lawn stripes, this is how you get them. The 20B is equipped with a heavy steel front roller and a heavy-duty cast ribbed split-differential rear roller. This combination perfectly lays the grass over in alternating directions, all while the split differential allows for smooth, scuff-free turns.
• Upgradability and Versatility: If you buy the 20B and then later on wish you had bought the 20FTB, that is not a problem.The quick-change cartridge system lets you swap the 6 blade cartridge for an 8 or 10 blade (as used on the 20FTB), you can also fit the grooved roller. But you can also quickly change your cutting blade for an aerator, verticutter, dethatcher, scarifier, or lawn brush. It is your entire annual lawn care program in one machine.
• Rugged Power & Total Control; Powered by the reliable, easy-starting Briggs & Stratton XR550 4-stroke engine, ensuring you have more than enough torque for larger, demanding lawns. Furthermore, the three-way drive system lets you engage the heavy-duty self-propulsion independently from the cutting cylinder. This means you can drive the mower safely down a path or to your shed with the blades safely disengaged, or easily empty the 75-litre front-mounted grass box.
Why the 20B and not the 20FTB?.
The Fortis 20B provides a more versatile, higher-utility mower designed for a wider range of grass heights and standard lawn maintenance. If you are maintaining an average large lawn rather than an ultra-low, manicured putting green.
The 20B offers key benefits in cut height due to its 6 blade cartridge. It includes a turf rake which is an incredibly handy attachment for lifting lateral grass blades, removing lifeless debris, and controlling thatch to maximize cutting performance. Also, at 89.2kg, it is slightly lighter than the 20FTB, making it slightly easier to turn and manage on standard turf, plus it is cheaper.
