Troy-Bilt TB30B 30-Inch 10.5 HP Briggs & Stratton 6-Speed Rear-Engine Riding Lawn Mower
Product Description
The Troy-Bilt TB30B Rear-Engine Riding Lawn Mower combines compact size, dependable Briggs & Stratton engine power, and a traditional steering-wheel design to provide an efficient solution for maintaining small and medium-sized residential lawns. Its 30-inch cutting deck allows the mower to pass through many standard backyard gates while delivering the comfort and productivity of a riding mower.
The mower is powered by a 10.5 HP Briggs & Stratton single-cylinder 344cc gasoline engine designed for dependable residential performance. Electric key start provides quick and convenient starting, while the rear-engine layout improves visibility and reduces the overall footprint of the machine.
The TB30B features a 6-speed Shift-on-the-Go manual transmission that allows operators to select the most appropriate travel speed for mowing conditions. Lower gears offer better control around landscaping and obstacles, while higher gears improve productivity across open sections of lawn.
The 30-inch steel cutting deck uses a single cutting blade and provides a balance between maneuverability and cutting efficiency. The deck supports both standard side-discharge mowing and mulching using the included mulch kit. An optional rear bagger can also be installed for grass collection.
Cutting height can be adjusted from approximately 1.5 to 3.75 inches using five cutting-height positions, allowing operators to adapt the mower to different grass types and seasonal conditions.
The compact design makes the TB30B ideal for gated yards, narrow pathways, and properties with limited storage space. A standard rear hitch allows light-duty towing of compatible lawn accessories such as small carts and sweepers.
Routine maintenance includes engine oil changes, air filter service, spark plug replacement, deck cleaning, blade sharpening, tire-pressure checks, and seasonal fuel-system maintenance.
