This version of the Husqvarna YTH2042 is non-CARB compliant; California residents should choose this CARB compliant version of the YTH2042.

Powerful and Versatile

The YTH2042 provides a 42-inch cutting width, 1.5- to 4-inch cutting height, and six cutting height increments. Additionally, it also offers an easily accessible fender-mounted cutting height adjustment and spring-assisted cutting deck. It's powered by a 20 HP, single-cylinder Briggs & Stratton Intek engine that's been designed from the ground up as a best-in-class engine for an excellent combination of power and performance.
The hydrostatic transmission produces a smooth, variable forward and reverse speed. It also offers a convenient, efficient cruise control function that ensures the tractor keeps an even speed, even if the lawn is undulating or sloping.
This riding lawn tractor also features Husqvarna's Air Induction mowing technology, where air is drawn from the top and bottom of the deck to improve grass lift and deliver a more consistent cut as well as better grass clipping discharge.
