8433.11.00.60 - 3.7 kW and over

This HTS category, 8433.11.00.60, specifically classifies lawn mowers that are powered and feature a cutting device rotating in a horizontal plane, with a motor output of 3.7 kilowatts (kW) and over. These machines are designed for maintaining lawns, parks, and sports grounds, encompassing a range of professional and heavy-duty mowing equipment. The emphasis is on the power rating of the motor, indicating machines with greater operational capacity and suitability for larger or more demanding areas.

This classification is distinguished from its sibling, 8433.11.00.50, solely by the motor's power output. While both categories cover horizontal rotary mowers for lawns, parks, and sports grounds, this specific code applies to units with a motor rating of 3.7 kW or more. This power threshold is a critical determinant for distinguishing between lighter-duty and more robust commercial or industrial mowing machinery.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories for this specific classification. Therefore, the primary classification criteria remain the type of mower (horizontal rotary), its intended use (lawns, parks, sports grounds), and crucially, its motor power rating of 3.7 kW and over. Importers and exporters should verify the stated motor power of the equipment to ensure accurate classification under this heading.
