Zero-turn lawn mowers make work faster. The reason: With the tank steering, they are more agile and can turn on the spot.
Agrarheute tested the Apex 48 from AriensCo and was surprised. With the two levers, the ride-on lawn mower can be maneuvered quickly and safely. This makes it easy to navigate around any obstacle. Particularly practical: The Apex 48 with the 122 cm wide mowing deck can turn on the spot.
Relaxed and fast
The operator sits relaxed on the rear axle of the mower, feet above the mowing deck, and steers and accelerates with the two levers. The right one controls the right drive, the left one the left drive. The further the levers are pushed forward, the faster the Apex goes. Pulling the levers back reverses the direction. If the levers are deflected differently, the Apex will make a curve. One lever forward, one back, and the mower turns on the spot.
Three blades for a clean cut
In the mowing deck, three sickle blades work to cut the grass at heights ranging from 3.8 to 12.7 cm, throwing it out to the right side. There is an optional mulch kit for the 122 cm wide mower, which chops the grass into small pieces and spreads it on the surface. Due to the seating position on the rear axle behind the engine, the operator has a good view of the area to be mowed.
