Zero Turn Lawn Mowers For Sale near Paragould, AR

Picking a Zero-Turn Mower

For true lawn and mowing perfectionists, zero-turn mowers are just the thing for the job! Zero-turn, meaning the mower can turn with an effective radius of zero, allows you to easily mow perfect lines into your lawn. These mowers are fast, precise, and strong.

Size

The first thing to consider for your zero-turn mower is what size deck you are going to need. First and foremost, think about your lawn. Is it small, square, landscaped, or covered in decorations or plants? Determine your deck size! The smaller the base of your mower means you will have a much easier time maneuvering in between objects. Or, opt for the a larger deck, and you can mow a larger area in as few passes as possible.

Engine and Horsepower

Next, you are going to want to think about what kind of grass you are cutting. Although these mowers can be fast, thick grasses or plants can be difficult for them to cut through. When mowing over things like small bushes, yucca plants or grass that grows super close together (like St. Augustine grass) can quickly wear down your mower blades and you will have to drive slower to cut everything well.

Commercial zero-turn mowers have the largest engines with the most horsepower, and entry-level mowers have the least amount of horsepower.

Steering

Aside from zero-turn mowers being so agile, the other difference between them and a regular riding lawn mower is the steering. Instead of a steering wheel, this mower has two levers that control the back wheels. This kind of driving does take some time getting used to and some practice. It would be wise to drive without the blades running before accidentally mowing over the flower bed!
