Grillo machines feature a double-layer electrostatic powder coating: a protective base layer followed by a high-gloss finish baked at 190°C. Each FD 13.09 4WD is meticulously assembled, tested, and inspected to ensure top quality and performance.

The innovative system uses a loading accelerator to transfer mechanical energy directly to the grass, reducing noise and consumption. An automatic mechanism engages the accelerator before the blades to keep the duct clean, with a flexible coupling ensuring perfect sealing.

The FD 13.09 features a hydraulic multi-disc PTO clutch with a built-in blade brake, actuated via an electric button for reliability and durability. Its hydraulically floating deck maintains consistent ground pressure and adapts to undulations, while the continuous electric height adjustment allows for quick and precise adaptations to varying conditions.

The FD 13.09 excels in high and wet grass conditions, offering impressive cutting and collecting capacity. Its 200 cm unloading height and 20 cm rear overhang make it perfect for easy unloading onto transport vehicles, while its agility and ease of handling kerbs and height differences make it ideal for maintaining flowerbeds and roundabouts.

The FD 13.09 features a compact design with a short wheelbase and hydrostatic steering, boasting a turning radius of just 31 cm. Its unique steering geometry and double articulation steering arm make it highly manoeuvrable and efficient, ideal for navigating obstacle-rich areas.

The FD 13.09 boasts a spacious, air-suspended seat with armrests and ergonomic controls, adjustable for all operators. Its quiet, centralised loading system and shock-absorbing grass duct coupling enhance comfort, making it ideal for extended use in large areas.

The FD 13.09 offers two front-mounted collecting plates—132 cm and 155 cm—both featuring hydraulic cutting height adjustment via an electric button from the driver’s seat. Equipped with a mulching kit as standard, the sturdy central collection and cardan shaft drive ensure efficient operation, while the automatic stopping of blades and grass catcher system prevents clogging when the catcher is full.

The FD 13.09 features an innovative ADL system that automatically manages differential locking, enhancing grip and stability on slopes. This system ensures efficiency and safety in challenging conditions, while the machine’s steering geometry and hydraulic transmission minimise lawn damage and tire wear.

The FD 13.09 is powered by a 26 HP 3TNV82A Stage 5 diesel engine, featuring direct injection and advanced cooling with an electric fan. This engine offers low emissions, efficient performance, and a top speed of 15 km/h, making it ideal for environmentally regulated areas. Its 23 L tank and permanent four-wheel drive ensure excellent stability and performance on steep slopes.

The FD 13.09 offers two mulching options: 160 cm and 130 cm, with both supporting an optional Scarifier Kit. The 160 cm mulcher also provides the option to add a Grass Blade Kit, enhancing its versatility.

The FD 13.09’s 130 cm MP deck features mulching and rear discharge options, easily switched via an electric button. The 160 cm LMP deck offers mulching, side discharge, and rear discharge functions, with quick field adjustments for different blade types. A 150 cm snow blade is also available for year-round versatility.
