AS MOTOR

Back in the 1950s, our founder and namesake Alfred Schefenacker (AS)
was an inventor living in Southern Germany. During his daily walks outside
Stuttgart he noticed how difficult it was to mow between the steep and narrow rows of the local vineyards. Besides being steep, vineyards were
only mowed perhaps once per year and the prunings left thick vines along the way. There seemed to be no solution to this tough mowing job, so
Schefenacker decided to invent one.
Knowing the engine is the heart of every machine, Alfred built his own custom two-stroke engine to power the first Allmäher® (all-mower) up slopes. Light, powerful, and specifically engineered for rough-terrain, the AS-Motor
Allmäher® was a major innovation, significantly improving an otherwise onerous task.
AS-Motor would remain a major innovating force in the years to come, and today remains one of the most trusted manufacturers of professional-grade
mowers in Europe and around the world for municipalities, landscapers, grounds-
keeping and private users. Its history of engineering milestones translates to a culture of innovation that keeps AS-Motor on the cutting edge of the industry, culminating with this year’s US launch of the AS Sherpa RC – the world’s first
ride-on rough-terrain mower with remote control. AS-Motor still engineers all its machines in-house, from a 12-person strong Research & Design team all the way to testing, components manufacture and final assembly.
Driving around Southern Germany today, one can still see farmers using the
Allmäher® they bought 30 years ago. Some miles down the road at AS-Motor’s head-
quarters in Bühlertann, the Allmäher’s original design is still being manufactured by a socially and environmentally responsible company, confirming Alfred Schefenacker’s founding philosophy from way back in 1959 – robust machines built to last, and a
vision for the future.

AS RIDE-ON MOWER
as-america.com4
PART ATV. PART MOUNTAIN GOAT. ALL ALLMÄHER®.
When the zero-turn ride-on mower burst onto the scene people immedi-ately recognized it as a better way to mow their lawns. If one is maintain-
ing a large area with average contours, there’s no better tool. But putting a zero-turn mower on slopes or rugged terrain is to invite problems, or worse. They’re simply not designed for that job – it’s too dangerous.
The AS 940 Sherpa 4WD was engineered specifically for use in rough con-
ditions where other mowers are simply not practical. With 22 horse-power, permanent all-wheel drive, a locking differential, a low center of gravity and
large agricultural tires for ground clearance and difficult terrain, the Sherpa is incredibly sure-footed. Slopes, ditches, rough terrain – no problem.
Grass and brush up to 5 feet high don’t stand a chance when faced with the Sherpa’s 36” mowing deck that houses a swing-blade version of our legendary cross-blade cutting system. The Sherpa has what it takes to power through.
LET THE AS 940 SHERPA BE YOUR GUIDE
The AS 940 Sherpa 4WD is the high-grass ride-on mower for professional use in rough-terrain and slopes, preferred by professional landscapers and large property
owners alike. The tubular frame ensures a robust yet agile design, leaving a light footprint on soft soil. Variable speed, compression braking and hydrostatic drive
make the Sherpa stable up and down hills. A foot-activated differential lock guaran-
tees that the Sherpa’s wheels pull in unison whenever the going gets tough.
The Sherpa is designed for operator comfort as well as performance. Slide into the driver’s seat and the first thing you’ll notice is the low and comfortable riding posi-
tion. The Sherpa’s adjustable suspension seat provides reliable comfort and plenty of legroom for long working periods. The rear-engine design makes steering light and
responsive. All controls are intuitively placed and within easy reach. A folding brush bar overhead works to keep branches and shrubbery out of your way.
The powerful and easy-to-maneuver AS Sherpa 940 4WD is the choice for anyone mowing difficult terrain.

AS 940 SHERPA 4WD XL
Terrain too rough for a normal ride-on mower? No problem. Grass and brush up to 5 feet high are no match for the AS 940 Sherpa’s 22 horse-power, permanent all-wheel drive, differential lock and legendary AS cross-blade cutting system.
A robust yet agile design and low center of gravity make the Sherpa rock-solid on slopes and rough terrain. Large agricultural tires and high ground clearance provide even more traction and stability.
Our engineers have packed the best of nearly 60 years’ experience into this machine, which is why the Sherpa is the preferred high-grass ride-on mower for professional use on slopes and rough-terrain.

AS RIDE-ON MOWER
IN FOCUS: THE NEW AS 940 SHERPA 4WD RC
The world’s first ride-on mower with remote control offers even more safety and work convenience, especially on rough and difficult-to-access
terrain.
There are many areas where mowing can be unpleasant or even unsafe, including on slopes, loose soil, under trees and bushes, along hedges, in the vicinity of stinging nettle or insects and in rain or bad weather.
These areas can be worked safely and conveniently with the AS Sherpa RC, via a professional remote-control unit with a range of several hundred yards.
Mowing is now possible regardless of terrain, at a safe distance and without direct exposure to noise or exhaust fumes. By expanding the application area, the new remote-controlled AS 940 Sherpa 4WD RC is AS-Motor’s most versatile
mower yet!
THE BEST OF THE SHERPA, PLUS REMOTE-CONTROL
The AS 940 Sherpa 4WD RC combines the advantages of the Sherpa 4WD XL with the advantages of remote control, ensuring your toughest mowing jobs can be tackled no matter the conditions.
The Sherpa RC can be used in remote-control or ride-on mode, with an easy, mecha-
nical changeover between the two. In remote-control mode, the Sherpa RC expands the mowable terrain by providing more safety in rough and difficult-to-access areas,
and on slopes up to 33-degrees. The Sherpa’s ride-on mode provides faster working speed on flat or normal terrain, quick maneuvering around obstacles and intuitive,
car-like driving. Save time and increase operator safety with the Sherpa RC!

AS FLAIL MOWER
A WEAPON OF GRASS DESTRUCTION
The AS 901 is a completely different kind of mower. Instead of a tradi-tional single rotating blade, the 901 uses 26 free-swinging knives known
as flails that extend from one side of the cutting chamber to the other. As the drum rotates at high speed, these flails quickly reduce waist-high
grass, briars and dense undergrowth to small particles. High grass and thick shrub are no match for the AS 901 Flail Mower’s robust cutting technology.
The AS 901 delivers safety alongside power. Flails are designed not only to quickly digest mass quantities of overgrown vegetation, but also to dodge foreign objects. In areas where grass and weeds may be mowed only once
or twice per year, the free-swinging flails simply ride up and over any unseen obstacle, protecting the mower and the operator. This “cut and drop” action makes flail mowers much safer for use in parks, roadsides and anywhere the job
requires mowing closer to people, pets and property.
IN FOCUS: AS 901 SM FLAIL MOWER
With a 36” cutting width and a 16 horsepower Vanguard engine, the AS 901 SM is the perfect size – big enough to quickly work large areas, yet small enough for use in rugged ditches or on steep hillsides. Features such as independent steering brakes,
handlebars easily adjustable for height, and stone guard flaps guarantee operator safety and comfort.
Equipped with a five-speed transmission, locking differential, and agricultural tread twin tires, the AS 901 provides easy maneuverability and excellent traction, regardless of terrain.

The AS 901 Flail Mower has a rugged 36” flail deck backed up by a 16 horsepower Vanguard engine. Five speed transmission with locking differential, independent steering brakes and dual wheels are standard equipment. A wide range of other features, all designed to deliver comfort and control, qualifies the AS 901 SM as the best tool to tackle your toughest mowing challenge.
