CRAFTSMAN T110 42-Inch 17.5 HP Briggs & Stratton Gas Riding Lawn Mower with 7-Speed Gear Drive
Product Description
The CRAFTSMAN T110 Gas Riding Lawn Mower is designed to provide dependable power, a wide cutting path and straightforward operation for maintaining medium to large residential lawns. Its front-engine configuration combines a reliable 17.5 HP Briggs & Stratton single-cylinder engine with a durable 42-inch stamped-steel cutting deck, helping homeowners mow more ground in fewer passes.
The mower features a seven-speed manual gear-drive transmission, allowing the operator to select the travel speed that best matches the lawn conditions. Lower settings provide greater control around landscaping, trees and tight areas, while higher settings help cover open sections of grass more efficiently.
Its 42-inch deck provides a practical balance between productivity and maneuverability. The side-discharge system directs grass clippings away from the cutting path during regular mowing. For additional lawn-care versatility, the mower can also be equipped with an optional mulching kit that cuts clippings more finely and returns them to the lawn.
An 18-inch turning radius helps the T110 maneuver around common yard obstacles, while the low-back seat and soft-touch steering wheel support a comfortable operating position. The mower rides on 15 × 6-inch front tires and 20 × 8-inch rear tires, providing a stable footprint for typical residential mowing conditions.
Built for homeowners who need more coverage than a walk-behind mower can provide, the CRAFTSMAN T110 offers a familiar gear-drive operating system without the added complexity of a hydrostatic transmission.

17.5 HP Briggs & Stratton Engine
The Briggs & Stratton single-cylinder engine provides the power needed for routine residential mowing. Its electric-start system eliminates the need for manual pull-starting, allowing the mower to be started using the ignition key.
The engine is designed to deliver consistent performance across open lawns and areas with moderately dense grass when the mower is operated and maintained according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Seven-Speed Gear-Drive Transmission
The manual transmission offers seven selectable speed settings. This gives the operator greater control over how quickly the mower travels:
- Lower gears are suitable for maneuvering around obstacles
- Mid-range gears work well for regular lawn mowing
- Higher gears help reduce travel time across open areas
Unlike a hydrostatic transmission, the gear-drive system uses manually selected speed positions, making it a straightforward option for users who prefer traditional controls.
42-Inch Steel Cutting Deck
The 42-inch stamped-steel deck allows the mower to cover a wider area than compact riding mowers and standard walk-behind machines. Its cutting width is well suited to medium and larger residential properties where reducing mowing time is important.
The deck uses a side-discharge configuration for normal mowing. An optional mulching kit can be added when finer clippings and nutrient recycling are preferred.
Maneuverability and Operator Comfort
An 18-inch turning radius helps the T110 navigate around trees, garden beds, pathways and other common landscaping features. The soft-touch steering wheel provides a comfortable gripping surface, while the low-back seat supports the operator during routine mowing sessions.
The 20 × 8-inch rear wheels create a stable base, while the smaller 15 × 6-inch front wheels support steering and maneuverability.
Recommended Applications
The CRAFTSMAN T110 is suitable for:
- Medium and large residential lawns
- Open grass areas requiring a wider cutting path
- Properties with trees and landscaping obstacles
- Routine seasonal lawn maintenance
- Homeowners upgrading from a push mower
