Power and Speed to Mow More Acres

The 24-hp (17.9-kW) V-twin engine combines smooth operation with the power needed to maintain a beautifully cut lawn. Large 22-in. (56-cm) rear tires, 13-in. (33-cm) front tires, and up to 8-mph (12.9-km/h) mowing speed help you tackle larger properties and tough terrain for true big mower performance.

Accel Deep™ Mower Deck

The Accel Deep™ mower deck features durable 10-gauge-thick steel construction, a 4.8-in. (12.2-cm) deck depth, and a 5/8-in. (1.6-cm) welded steel reinforcement bar for long-lasting durability. its deep-draw, flat-top design and smooth underside help create optimal airflow around the mower blades to lift grass more effectively and distribute clippings evenly for a pristine finish and enhanced mulching and bagging performance, even at high mowing speeds.

Operator Comfort Comes Standard

A 21-in. (53-cm) seat with armrests and extra cushioning and bolstering add the support you need to mow comfortably from start to finish. Two steel springs under the seat help absorb shocks when mowing over rougher areas to smooth out your ride. The large foot platform provides ample leg room, and the steering levers can be adjusted to find the ideal placement for every operator.
