Murray MT200 42-Inch 19 HP Automatic Gas Riding Lawn Tractor

Product Description

The Murray MT200 42-Inch Riding Lawn Tractor combines dependable Briggs & Stratton power, an automatic transmission, and a compact 42-inch cutting deck for efficient residential lawn maintenance. Designed for lawns up to approximately 2 acres, it provides a practical balance of mowing coverage, maneuverability, operator comfort, and attachment versatility.

Power is supplied by a 19 HP Briggs & Stratton EX1900 Series engine with a displacement of 540cc. The single-cylinder gasoline engine includes Briggs & Stratton’s Anti-Vibration System to help reduce vibration transmitted through the tractor during operation. Electric starting allows convenient startup using the ignition key.

The engine is paired with a smooth automatic transmission, allowing the operator to change travel speed without repeatedly stopping to shift through fixed gears. This straightforward drive system is well suited to routine mowing across open lawn areas and around common residential obstacles.

A durable 42-inch stamped-steel mower deck provides efficient coverage while remaining compact enough for maneuvering around trees, garden beds, pathways, and landscaping. The deck is manufactured from 13-gauge steel and uses two cutting blades to produce a clean, even finish.

The mower offers 13 cutting-height positions, allowing the deck height to be adjusted for different grass varieties, seasonal conditions, and preferred lawn appearance. Anti-scalp wheels help the deck follow mild terrain changes while reducing the risk of cutting raised areas too closely.

The MT200 comes configured for standard side-discharge mowing, distributing grass clippings from the side of the deck. Compatible Murray mulching and grass-collection accessories may also be available separately, allowing the tractor to be adapted for finer clipping processing or rear collection.

A Mow-in-Reverse option allows the operator to continue cutting while carefully reversing when necessary. This can be useful when repositioning around corners or obstacles, though the operator should always check the area behind the mower and follow the safety instructions in the manufacturer’s manual.

With an 18-inch turning radius, the tractor can navigate residential landscaping more easily than larger garden tractors. Traditional steering-wheel control provides a familiar operating experience for homeowners moving up from a walk-behind mower.

Operator comfort is supported by an adjustable 13-inch padded high-back seat, providing added back support during longer mowing sessions. The tractor also includes a built-in cup holder and headlights for added convenience and improved visibility in lower-light conditions.

A factory-installed rear hitch expands the tractor’s usefulness beyond mowing. It can be used with compatible light-duty tow-behind equipment such as utility carts, spreaders, lawn sweepers, and other approved residential attachments, subject to the limits stated in the operator’s manual.

The Murray MT200 is backed by a two-year limited product warranty. Engine-warranty terms may vary according to the engine manufacturer, purchase date, and applicable warranty documentation.
