The Virtue 53 ASDX BBC LV features an aluminium cutter deck which provides 40% more airflow than the steel deck models. Offering exceptional cutting and collection in all conditions, the 53 ASDX BBC LV is also fitted with a WEIBANG PRO SD BBC and is the choice of many local councils and contractors due to its performance and reliability.

Large Quick Attach Collector
The large fabric collector features airflow fabric on the top to indicate when the collector is full. To make life easier the collector auto locates into the handle structure effortlessly. When removed, the machine offers rear discharge functionality.

• Minimal servicing required
• Less downtime and higher productivity
• Up to 3 year commercial warranty (Aluminium models)


Aluminium Cutter Deck
Compared to our steel deck models, the aluminium range offers 40% more airflow in the deeper cutter deck for unrivalled grass collection in any conditions. As well as the performance benefits, the aluminium deck also features replaceable inner and outer deck protection.
Full Deck Protection
The cutter deck of the Virtue 53 ASD features fully replaceable protection, with a steel inner deck liner to prevent damage from stones and other objects, and outer steel deck liners to protect the aluminium deck when mowing near walls or other inevitable knocks during use.


Emptying Handle
The collector features a full width rear handle that doesn’t pinch the collector during emptying, resulting in easier and faster emptying of the large fabric bag.
Easy Cable Access
All models feature an open back cockpit design, offering simple easy access to cables for adjustment or routine maintenance. Furthermore, the cables feature a heavy duty design with dust covers and spring mountings for added durability.


Easy Maintenance
As a commercial machine the Virtue was designed for simple maintenance, with all engines offering easy access to the oil dipstick, spark plug and air filter, to make routine maintenance fast and minimise downtime.
Durable Grip & Replaceable Bushes
The handles feature a high density professional grip for comfort and durability over long periods of use. The OPC and drive levers are fitted into replaceable plastic bushes for smooth operation and an extended life.


Central Height of Cut
The single lever height adjustment is supported by a heavy duty spring for assistance. With a choice of positions from as little as 20mm to as much as 80mm, the Virtue is capable of tackling anything from a short formal lawn to more overgrown areas. The single adjustment lever is also fitted inside the rear wheel to ensure it’s protected when mowing against walls and hedges.
