Wood-Mizer, who has designed and sold commercial mowers for the past 25 years, has now released a high-end product fit for the homeowner looking for a pro-quality cut. The new Wood-Mizer Zero Turn Mowers feature 26Hp Kohler gas vertical shaft engines and can come in either a 52″ or 61″ cutting deck. Made in the USA, these new mowers feature welded steel decks, durable fabricated frames, and powder coat paint finishes for years’ worth of heavy use. Plus, for user comfort, Wood-Mizer has designed an ergonomic and adjustable seat, large diameter control handles, large 22″diameter rear tires, and an easy height adjustment system. These mowers come with a 3-Year or 300-hour warranty.
Product Highlights
The new Wood-Mizer Zero Turn Mowers come in a 52″ and 61″ Cutting deck options. Both use three overlapping, flat-mount, high-lift blades. The smaller version uses 18″ blades, while the larger mower uses 21″ blades. The 52″ version can tackle a 4.2-acre lot in an hour, while the 61″ version can handle 4.9 acres. Both models feature a 26Hp Kohler 7000 PRO vertical shaft engine with a dual integrated, commercial-grade Hydro-Gear ZT3100 transmission. Wood-Mizer has also decided on using a 6-gallon fuel tank to keep you mowing longer and refueling less.
As far as comfort and usability go, the Wood-Mizer Zero Turn Mowers include comfortable, fully-adjustable high-back seats and ergonomic, large diameter control arms. Users can adjust the deck height without leaving the aforementioned, comfortable seat as well. A convenient spring-assisted lever and foot pedal allow for cut height adjustments from 1″ to 4-1/2″, all in 1/4″ increments. These mowers also include a simple, easy-to-manage control panel that allows users to control the throttle and blade clutch, as well as monitor cutting hours. 22″ rear wheels allow for better traction and a more comfortable ride.
Wood-Mizer built their mowers to last. Both models feature heavy-duty, fully-welded steel, as opposed to the thin, stamped decks you’ll find on some other mowers. All the cutting decks feature cast aluminum spindle housings and sealed ball bearings. Spring-loaded idler pivots use long-lasting kevlar belts. The Wood-Mizer Zero Turn Mowers come with 3-year or 300-hour warranties for added peace of mind. The 52″ model starts at $5,199, while the 61″ model starts at $5,399.
