• Raise and lower the deck easily with foot pedal and drop pin for precision cutting heights between 1.0 and 5.0 inches.

• Commercial Use: 3-year unlimited hours; limited warranty covering parts and labor.
• Residential Use: 4-year or 800-hour (whichever comes first); limited warranty covering parts and labor.

• 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

• Only two Access-Eze™ lubrication points cut maintenance time up to 95%
• Self-tensioning belts minimize cost and labor on routine maintenance

• ComfortZone™ seat eliminates jostles and jolts with coil-spring suspension and a fully padded, high-back seat, padded armrests and variable density foam cushion. Iso-mounting smooths the ride, erases fatigue and keeps the operator comfortably in control at faster mowing speeds

• Standard, low profile Roll-over Protection System (ROPS) structure 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

• Equipped with a High Temperature Clutch Cut-Out that automatically disengages the PTO if engine temperature reaches a certain point to prevent engine damage

Dedicated 48-, 52- or 61-, or 72-inch rear discharge decks throw clippings out back for a smooth cut and no windrowing.

Provides additional seating room for larger operators or to accommodate cell phones or pagers. Requires seat belt extension.

The optional Premier Suspension Seat offers the ultimate in comfort and an extra measure of suspension while mowing over rough ground. Adjustable backrest, armrests and lumbar support with weight-adjusted suspension control provide maximum comfort for operators of all sizes and preferences.

Provides an additional two inches of leg clearance.

Available for all MidMount models, optional QuikAjust Tilt™ steering levers (except 124V-41) with "no tools" adjustment provide a 9-inch range for maximum comfort and fit while maintaining natural arm and wrist positions.

Optional DuraFlex™ Suspension Forks absorb the impacts of rough terrain to maintain a level cut, and can be set for use with PowerVac™ collectors.

Optional low-pressure, high-flotation bar-tread tires are available for 61- and 72-inch models that flex with the terrain for maximum traction and minimize scuffing caused by wheel spin-out.

The Foldable ROPS allows the two-post ROPS to be lowered for mowing under low-hanging trees and other overhead obstacles, or for storing and transporting in enclosed trailers with low door clearance. CAUTION: Avoid drop-offs, embankments and steep slopes. Do not allow ROPS to provide a false pretense of security in hazardous areas and avoid questionable conditions. Always wear seatbelt when Foldable ROPS is in up-right position. When Foldable ROPS is down, DO NOT use seat belt, and drive with extra caution.

Lightweight, water repellent, UV-resistant vinyl canopy mounts easily to OPS to limit exposure to direct sunlight, reducing eye strain and increasing operator comfort.

Optional two-bar DuraGuard™ Rear Bumper Guards provides additional protection of the rear of the mower while preserving easy access for removal of the rear service shield. Available for 200, 300 and 400 Series MidMount™ mowers.

The Filter Minder alerts the operator when airflow is restricted in the air canister on dual-element air filters. The Filter Minder is available as an option on all 616T and 700 Series FrontMount™ models (except 721DT, 725K and 727EFI) with heavy duty canister-type air cleaners.

Hydraulic Height Adjustment for 61-inch and larger DuraMax® decks on liquid-cooled MidMount™ mowers allow operators to raise and lower cutting height at infinitely variable settings with toggle switch control. Standard on 400 Series models.

A multi-channel sprayer that combs water pressure between radiator fins without damage, dislodging packed-in dust and debris that can become an invisible source of engine overheating. Remove and clean radiator screen regularly. A dirty screen will cause the engine to overheat. For use on liquid-cooled models only.

LED work lights provide improved visibility in low light situations.

Yellow beacon attaches to OPS to provide greater visibility in high-traffic areas.

The optional Down Discharge™ mulching package with GrassMax™ medium-lift blades cuts and recuts clippings and directs them deep into the grass bed, enriching turf and producing a beautifully manicured cut.

The Electric Height Adjustment kit offers 1- to 5-inch height adjustment control from the operator's seat with the flip of a switch. This dealer-installed option is available for all 200 and 300 Series MidMount™ models.

The optional Speed-Trimming™ heavy-duty, anti-scalp roller kit for 52-inch and larger DuraMax® decks speeds close trimming near buildings, fences retaining walls and other landscaping features. Kits available for both left and right sides of cutting decks.

Creates clean, sharp turf edges along sidewalks, roadways and driveways, eliminating time-consuming secondary trimming and reducing edging time up to 75 percent compared to hand-held string trimmers and walk-behinds.

Accepts 53-inch, 30-gallon shielded sprayer, which features aerodynamically designed shields and fully shielded curtains to contain chemical spray. Four-nozzle spraying chambers apply small droplets that "stick" to vegetation for more coverage per tank using less chemicals.

• PowerVac™ Collection Systems deliver a clean sweep on every pass. Simply adjust your mowing speed to your conditions.
• Quik-D-Tatch® Vac drive can be removed in seconds without tools

Weather-resistant, black Cordura fabric cover with embroidered Grasshopper logo keeps seat and engine area protected during storage or between mowings. Slips over ROPS, with Velcro closure to secure the opening.
