FEATURES AND BENEFITS
  Features:

Design-Matched G2 Transmissions

  • Robust G2 transmission features 7-micron absolute filter and CoolFan™ hydro cooling system

  • HydroGear variable displacement 12 cc piston-pumps and high-torque Parker wheel motors

  • Provides 1,000-hour transmission fluid change interval

Kohler Command Pro Engine

747 cc, 2-cylinder, air-cooled Kohler Command PRO V-Twin engine

Heavy-duty Deck

  • Extra-deep, 5.5-inch deck is fabricated from heavy-gauge formed steel with a reinforced anvil edge

  • Specially designed cutting chambers enhance airflow for better cut quality

  • Deck easily converts from side discharge to optional Down Discharge™ mulching or PowerVac™ collection

  • Sentry™ spindles with massive, 8-inch flanges anchored in a 6-bolt pattern, spread the force of impact for greater strength

  • Spindle planes are fabricated from double-layered formed steel laminate and combine with the spindles to form a triple-strength deck to keep blades level and deliver a high-quality cut.

  • Sentry™ spindle guards shield spindle housing and seal lower bearings from fiber wrap and dirt ingestion

Vigilant Operator Presence System™

  • Standard, low profile Roll-over Protection System (ROPS) structure with an adjustable seatbelt

  • Dampened steering levers that return to neutral from forward and reverse

  • Interlock switches that shut down the engine when the operator leaves the seat while PTO is engaged or levers are in drive position

Warranty

  • Commercial Use: 3-year unlimited hours; limited warranty covering parts and labor.

  • Residential Use: 4-year or 800-hour (whichever comes first); limited warranty covering parts and labor.

QuikAjust® Drop Pin Height Adjustment

Raise and lower the deck easily with foot pedal and drop pin for precision cutting heights between 1.0 and 5.0 inches.

Rugged Construction

  • Robotically-welded steel construction for long-lasting durability

  • Centered-bearing design provides greater load-bearing capacity to handle the weight of operator, fuel and high-capacity collector with reserve strength for curb shocks and weight shifts

  • Tough-as-nails powder-coated finish is fusion-bonded for chip and rust resistance

Reduced Maintenance

  • Only two Access-Eze™ lubrication points cut maintenance time up to 95%

  • Self-tensioning belts minimize cost and labor on routine maintenance
