This machine convinced me already during the 1st mowing operation, so that I do not shed a tear for our former tractor with attached mulch mower. Efficient, manoeuvrable, powerful and a excellent mowing result characterise my new AS 800 FreeRider; and on top of that it takes up very little space in the tool shed when not in use.
In addition to my new AS 800 ride-on mower, we own an AS 28 2T ES for several years now, with which we are also very satisfied. My father swears to it. It is used on steep sections and on embankments/ditches. I bought the machine at Hagenlocher in Hbg-Gültstein - Hagelocher is always a competent and trustworthy dealer, also when it comes to service works.
My conclusion: "If there were such great, well thought-out and reliable products for all live situations as AS motorised equipment, the world would be simply perfect!
– Klaus Haarer (from Herrenberg, Germany)

For our AS 940 Sherpa 4WD XL, narrow, steep and difficult to navigate areas with high grass, shrubs, bushes and wild growth are no problem. We mow with our Sherpa, where you can hardly walk. Not much remains from the 1.5 m high and up to 3 cm thick growth! Our customers rely on us for quality and reliability and we can rely on our AS Profi mower!

After seven ride-on mowers, the 54-year-old now owns his first ride-on flail mower, an AS 1040 YAK 4WD. "The YAK convinces me above all with its enormous area output. I can drive the YAK anywhere. Whether in the middle of five-meter-high blackberries or up slopes where you need a crampon on foot. The Yak drives at full speed as if nothing is wrong. And then everything is gone."

Because we often sit on our mowers for hours at a time, we really appreciate the comfort offered by the AS 980’s seat suspension... Our company requires professional work devices. The AS 980 Enduro has proven to be extremely robust and never failed us. Moreover, it offers excellent comfort when compared with other ride-on mowers.
– Harald Ernstberger (owner of Joe's Forstservice, Germany)

Even my grandmother had an AS mower, which at the time was still red and white and had a front wheel with spokes that looked like a bicycle. And my parents had orchards and vineyards... which could only be mowed a scythe or an AS mower.

I can completely mow the wastewater treatment plant in about one day with the new AS 63 2T ES. It took me almost twice as long with a brush-cutter. The AS 63’s twin tyres make the device extremely safe on a slope.
– Mario Werthmann (care of green areas – Wastewater Treatment Plant Rettersbach, Germany)

Manfred Hopfensitz (Manager of municipality of Wört, Germany)

The Sherpa is lightweight and has great off-road mobility. If I get stuck with the mower in a really wet spot, I lock the differential and maneuver out without any trouble. Moreover, the agricultural tyres guarantee grip on wet terrain.

Harald Ernstberger (Joe’s Forestry Service, Germany)

Harald Josef Ernstberger - a true connoisseur of the entire AS-Motor product range - tested the innovation of the year in tough practical use: the professional ride-on mower AS 1040 Yak 4WD. His verdict is clear: "The new mower from AS is really a machine for professionals. Even under adverse conditions, you can work at high speed and save a lot of time. The cutting pattern is absolutely clean and one hundred percent convincing".

Time is a precious commodity which is why I'm the proud owner of an AS 940 XL.

Maintaining horse pastures is a pleasure with the AS 800 FreeRider, even close to fences! You can work very well on slopes thanks to its low centre of gravity.
