Features may include:

Powerful 35.0-hp (26.1-kW) commercial-grade engine delivers class-leading performance and efficiency
  • Overhead valve design
  • More horsepower and torque per cubic inch of displacement
  • Better fuel efficiency
  • Deck is forged from 7-gauge, 0.179-in. (4.6-mm) steel to minimize the number of welds and provide a smooth underside with fewer sharp corners for reduced material buildup.
  • Significantly fewer welds on the deck shell to wear or break - it is forged from a single sheet of steel rather than multiple fabrications. An anti-skid step on the deck provides easy machine mounting.
  • Extra reliability and long life with cast-iron blade spindle housings.
  • Seat can travel up to 2 in. (50.8 mm) fore and aft to absorb bumps for a significant enhancement to ride comfort.
  • Control lever provides the ability to easily lock out fore/aft suspension movement if desired.
