Mulching is a process by which grass cuttings are shredded several times into a fine mulch, which then remains on the surface as natural fertiliser. Special mulching blades with a double cutting plane and a circular mulching unit are used on ornamental lawns, while cross-blade systems or flail mowers are primarily used in high grass. -
Ornamental lawns in both private gardens and public facilities can be maintained with either mulching or collecting mowers. When mulching, the finely-shredded cuttings remain on the surface as natural fertiliser, while collection bags help the operator transport cuttings to a disposal point. Lawns are usually mowed once per week to a cutting height of 40–50 mm, from a maximum height of 15 cm. -
Flower meadows are structurally rich habitats that are extremely important for insects, wild bees, and species that depend on flowers. The key is not to mow frequently, but to cut at the right time. Before the flowering phase, the vegetation can quickly reach heights of 30–40 cm. After that, maintenance is carried out at longer intervals, usually once or twice a year. This form of extensive use requires machines that can safely cut tall, heterogeneous vegetation without putting unnecessary strain on the area. Clean cuts, controlled deposition, and an adapted driving style are essential for preserving plant populations and enabling regeneration. -
Extensively used meadows such as orchards, compensation areas, or roadside greenery are deliberately mowed only once or twice a year. The vegetation reaches heights of 60 to over 100 cm and forms dense, structurally rich stands. This form of maintenance serves to keep the area open and suppress woody plants, not to maintain the lawn. Machines with high throughput, uniform cutting performance, and controlled deposition of the cut material are required. This is the only way to efficiently manage large amounts of biomass without overloading the area or damaging the soil and vegetation. -
Without maintenance, open areas quickly become overgrown with blackberries, clematis, and young trees. In young forests, reforestation areas, or Christmas tree plantations, targeted brush clearing is necessary to secure the desired structures and reduce competition. It is crucial to use maintenance methods that intervene selectively and do not destroy large areas. Mechanical flail mowing technology makes it possible to remove woody growth and vigorous shrubs without unnecessarily damaging the soil structure and root space. This ensures that areas remain usable and ecologically stable in the long term. -
During the mowing season, professional operators often run their machines 5 days per week, 8 hours per day. AS-Motor’s machines are unbeatable in terms of quality, durability and professional work results. Additional advantages include low weight, lashing points and compact transport dimensions. -
Animal burrows, anthills, mole hills and water channels cause uneven terrain. Several AS-Motor machines have high ground clearance, all-wheel drive and limited slip differential, along with appropriately studded field tyres, for uneven terrain. -
AS-Motor engineers machines with high ground clearance, steep ramp angles, low overall weight, optimal weight distribution and a low centre of gravity to perform on slopes. -
All-wheel drive not only ensures performance on inclines over 30 degrees, but also a high level of safety for travel downhill. All-wheel drive delivers propulsion in wet conditions and on uneven terrain – even if the wheels of one axle no longer have traction. -
Remote controlled devices make the mowing of extreme slopes possible. This technology also allows the operator to mow at a safe distance from dust, wasps, ticks and other hazards. -
The AS 50’s high work rate delivers efficient weed removal on large and uneven surfaces such as a car parks, commercial areas and paths. A collection bag eliminates the need for sweeping and surface cleaning. -
Cobblestones and uneven paved areas can be treated for weeds, without the use of chemicals, using mechanical methods. The agile AS 30 is designed for work close to edges, water inlet channels, manholes and on traffic islands with posts and signs. -

- Ecological mowing and extensive land management focus on reduced, targeted interventions instead of blanket mowing. Cutting heights, timing, and maintenance intervals are based on vegetation development and site conditions, not on maximum area coverage. Sub-areas are mowed on a rotating basis, while others are deliberately left untouched. This creates varying growth heights, refuges, and stable structures on extensive meadows, compensation areas, municipal green spaces, and in landscape management. Technology is used for control, not intensification.

All-wheel drive and reverse gear for steep slopes
Equipped with the world’s only 2-stroke engine that meets the requirements stipulated by the EU Emissions Directive 97/68/EC, the AS 53 2T ES 4WD RB can mow safely on inclines. In addition, the AS 2-stroke engine is factory-equipped with an EasyStart function; the CDI digital ignition system cuts the rpms required to start in half. The 2-stroke engine’s high torque provides full power in high, wet grass, while a third crankshaft bearing, safety blade carrier and friction discs on the wing blade protect the engine in the event of unseen obstacles.
All-wheel drive delivers propulsion even in extreme conditions such as slopes and uneven, hilly terrain. The AS 53 2T ES 4WD RB has excellent grip thanks to large, aggressive tread drive wheels. The brake provides support on extreme slopes and can also be used as a parking brake.
Drive speed can be conveniently adjusted to suit the conditions using the variator, and the AS 53 2T ES 4WD RB comes with a reverse gear.
Cutting heights can be adjusted from 30–100 mm via six levels on each axle. Work rates reaching 2,500 m² per hour are possible due to a powerful 2-stroke engine with up to 6.0 hp and a 53 cm cutting width. The AS 53 2T ES 4WD RB easily cuts grass up to 40 cm high.
Product advantages
The world's only AS 2-stroke engine with EasyStart has position-independent lubrication, ensuring safe operation even on steep slopes.
With all-wheel drive, rear-wheel brake and reverse gear ideal for ditches, hills, embankments or slopes. In addition, the all-wheel drive ensures a constant downhill speed and increased safety on steep slopes.
Third crankshaft bearing and friction discs on the mulching blade ensure optimal engine protection.
The variable speed adjustment allows optimal performance in all work conditions. In addition the device is equipped with a reverse gear.
