GF 3DF

The 117 cm double blade central cutter bar with its action has a mulch cut mode and is fitted with two blades moving in opposite direction. This “scissors like“ cutting action reduces the vibrations considerably on the handlebar when mowing ensuring an optimum quality cut even in the most demanding conditions.
Thanks to its characteristics the 117cm double blade central cutter bar is ideal for cutting in rustic areas, fruit orchards or produce grass for animal feed.
The grass disperser is mounted on vibration-proof rubbers, it has a special profile to allow better the grass dispersal in demanding situations: the cut grass is taken and dropped to the ground by the action of the wheels allowing easier control when travelling forwards.
The high quality blades are made of special heat treated steel; the blade tensioners made of a flexible material to ensure contact between the two blades.

The GF3 DF’ s weight distribution has been designed in such way to increase its stability when mowing on slopes. In order to further increase stability on slopes, Grillo has a wheel extension kit to obtain a wider track up to 24 cm, pneumatic wheels with high adherence tyre profile design and a laterally adjustable handlebar.

The differential increases the manoeuvrability and, combined with the brakes, makes the Grillo GF3 DF agile also during the manoeuvres on slopes. The two brake drums mounted on the wheels are operated by the two levers on the handlebar and allow alternative braking of respectively one wheel so to improve the turning radius. Apart from that the levers are equipped with a block so to convert the service brakes into parking brakes able to hold the sickle bar tightly even on slopes.
The diff-lock is operated by a T-shaped lever on the handlebar and turns out to be indispensable to ensure the straight advancement without any efforts to the GF3 DF.

The GF3 DF is supplied with a Robin Subaru EX27 OHC petrol engine having 8.3 HP or the Lombardini 15LD350 diesel engine having 7.5HP.
Both engines with recoil start and adopt the latest innovations which ensure an easy engine starts, reliability low emissions, high performance and vibrations reduced to the minimum. The Grillo GF3 DF’s engines are designed for professional use on slopes and are equipped with a rear bumper.

GF3 DF , as with all Grillo products, is designed and built to last and retain their value over many years.
All components, from the simplest to the most complex, are of a high quality standard.
Grillo mounts the best engines of the world on its machines!
The GF3 DF passed very stringent tests to prove the reliability of its transmission, frame structure and of all its components.
Chassis, handlebar, carter, everything is built by Grillo in Italy by using only premium materials and cutting edge technology. All this to achieve a constant and 100% controlled high level quality:

The finish on all Grillo machines consists of a double electrostatic powder coated process. First are the washing baths and preparation, then a first protective coat is applied together with baking in the oven, this turns out to be the best basis for the application of the finish. The second coat consists of powder coating and further baking in the oven at 190°C to produce the characteristic hardness and brilliance.
All the GF 3 DF’s components have been assembled with care in every detail and tested scrupulously by specialised personnel. Final inspection means a machine whose engine has been run in order to check its performance. This is a further and final guarantee of a high quality product.
