White LT-145 Lawn Tractor
The White LT-145 is a lawn tractor produced between 1990 and 1999 by White, a division of MTD. Designed for residential lawn maintenance, this machine combines a compact chassis with a hydrostatic drive system for ease of operation.

This air-cooled, two-cylinder V-twin engine features a displacement of 480 cc (29.3 ci) and utilizes an electric starter. Power is delivered through a belt-driven HydroMatic hydrostatic transmission, which provides infinite forward and reverse speed control without the need for manual gear shifting.

Built on a two-wheel drive chassis, the LT-145 features manual steering and disc brakes for operational control. The operator station is of the open type, prioritizing accessibility and visibility. The machine is equipped with an independent mid-mounted PTO, allowing for the effective operation of the included 42-inch mower deck.

The machine rides on lawn and turf tires, with 15x6 dimensions at the front and 20x8 at the rear, designed to minimize ground compaction.
