LED Signal lights |
LED lights are bright, long lasting, and resistant to vibration, unlike incandescent counterparts. |
Counter blade rotation on left hand deck |
Spreads grass clippings more evenly. Wing decks throw grass away from the rear deck. Rear deck doesn't get covered up nor does it get bogged down by cut grass. |
7'-8" transport width at lowest cutting height |
Meets most city/county codes for transport width. |
6" Deck overlap |
Eliminates skipping when going into a tight turn. |
11'-1" Cutting width - three 48" decks |
Sized right for golf courses, cities, schools. Small decks give excellent flexibility. |
Sleek frame design, including single beam hitch and compact deck overlap |
Design allows operator to make tighter turns without leaving windrows and skips. AFM virtually becomes a zero turn mower. (Oversized tires may not allow this.) |
Automatic transport wing locks |
When wings are raised in the full transport position, the wings lock in place. No need to get off the tractor to lock. Pull rope from tractor seat to un-lock. |
18" Transport tires with tapered roller bearings |
Transport tires offer smooth roading and less grass compaction. Allows grass to stand up. Tapered roller bearings offer longevity. |
Removable transportation tire spindles |
Allows a spindle to be replaced by simply removing two bolts. |
Back wheels on side decks even with transportation tires |
Allows tighter turns without skips. |
Rigid rear side deck tires |
Rigid wheel yokes holds hills and slopes better. Safer unit than the competition. |
13" Deck tires with sealant |
13" Tires offer great flotation, less lbs. per square inch. Sealant minimizes flats. |
1/4" Gauge wheel arms |
Gives the mower gauge wheel arms a great deal of "hidden" strength. |
Low pivot points on deck |
The lower the pivot points are to the ground, the more side to side swing, allowing for excellent flotation from each deck. |
Deflectors built into mower decks |
Safety features meet ANSI standards. Many competitors use chains for protection. Once chains are removed the unit does not meet ANSI specifications. |
Rear discharge |
Even dispersal, discharged items are aimed downward. No rear chains are needed, which tend to clump damp grass. |
Rounded front deck edges with no protruding skid shoe |
Helps protect trees and other obstacles. |
5/16" Front edge & all-welded seams |
Provides extra durability. |
Cat. 3 Constant velocity main driveline |
Constant velocity main driveline allows for tighter turns without harming U-joints in driveline, includes slip clutch. |
Slip-clutch protection |
Guards against premature gearbox failure. Protects mower deck spindles. |
Cat. 2 wing drivelines |
Reduces start-up torque that is put on the driveline, gearbox and gearbox support. |
ABS guards |
No paint to scratch off, lighter weight, no rattling or rust. |
Heavy gearbox mounts on center and side mower decks |
Handles start-up torque better. |
Gearbox HP Rating |
30 -65 HP |
Gearbox warranty |
5 years on parts and labor. Demonstrates our confidence in the gearbox’s quality and lasting performance. |
Easy to grease blade spindles |
No guards to remove for routine greasing of blade spindles. |
Middle spindle sits towards the back of the mower deck |
Uses less horsepower and allows material to escape the mower deck easier. The discharge of material is more even. Design eliminates windrowing. |
Spring loaded idlers |
Applies constant tension to belt to run efficiently. |
Easy belt tension release |
Easily release belt tension for changing belt or for winter storage. |
High blade tip speed |
(16,260 fpm) Lifts grass up for a clean cut and efficient discharge of material. Tip speed rates are as high or higher than the competition. |
Choice of Blade |
Low Lift Blades |
Highly recommended in sandy soils where lifting isn't crucial. Disturbs the soil very little, allowing blades to wear longer. |
Medium Lift Blades |
Medium suction for lifting grass. Requires less HP than high lift. |
High Lift Blades |
Greatest suction for lifting grass before cutting. Can take higher HP in tall dense grass. Not recommended in sandy soils. |
Mulching Blade |
Perfect for leaf mulching. |
Optional Hydraulic Operated Transport Locks |
Transports locks can be released easily from the tractor seat while operating the same tractor control lever that raises and lowers the mower decks. Eliminates pulling a rope to release transport locks. |
