Hi, the parking brake is really designed to allow you to leave the mower on more of a slope when it's not running or being transported. All newer ride on mowers don't allow you to get off the seat without it cutting out when it's running - Parking brake on or not
@akul1050 Hi. If you push down the parking foot brake and then push down the parking lever with your hand at the same time it will engage the parking brake. As I said above the parking brake is for leaving the mower on slopes (engine off) or transporting. To disengage, tap the foot brake and it will disengage the parking brake.
@akul1050 The parking brake handle on this model and most others don't have different stages. They only have one stage. Is this the same model you have?
Hi Brian, the new 2098h is the Stiga Tornado 598. Here are the side-discharges on our website on the link below. On our contact page you'll see the details of where we are and if you want to get in touch and we can tell you when we expect delivery to us of that model or others you might be interested in. Thanks. brucklaygarage.co.uk/product-category/ride-on-mower/side-discharge-mower/
Hi very good demo. Am just about to buy the 2098H. question? where are they made
Made in PRC
Hi, Sorry for delay in response. Stiga models are made between Italy and PRC.
What is the role of the parking brake when I put it all the way down? Can I get off the mower without the engine turning off?

Some folk have commented that this model throws off the belt constantly. Can anyone verify this, before i splash the cash?
Hi, We have sold a number of these this year and so far haven't had any issues.
Is this automatic transmission? And is it collecting grass in a bucket?
Hi, yes this is a hydrostatic model. There is no grass box as this puts cutting out the side or mulches back into the lawn.
