Design-Matched Transmission

- Design-matched, fully hydraulic Parker HT Series integrated pump-and-wheel-motor transmissions with in-line cooling fans and fine-particle filtration

- No power-robbing gearbox or other wear parts for longer service life

- Provides best-in-class transmission fluid change interval with no break-in period, reducing costs and maintenance time

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

Warranty

- Commercial Use: 2-year or 800-hour (whichever comes first); limited warranty covering parts and labor.

- Residential Use: 4-year or 800-hour (whichever comes first); limited warranty: first two years covering parts and labor, second two years covering parts only.

Vigilant Operator Presence System™

- Standard, low profile operator protection structure (OPS) 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

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

PowerFold Electric Deck Lift

- Standard on all FrontMount™ DuraMax® decks, PowerFold® is the zero-turn mower industry's first electric deck lift (introduced in 2004).

- PowerFold® rotates the deck nearly 90 degrees to provide easy access to the underside of the deck for simplified maintenance and mulching package installation, plus space-saving portability and storage.

- The feature also adjusts cutting height between 1.25 and 5.0 inches and controls deck lift functions using a single switch.
