Swisher ZT2460 Zero-Turn-Radius, 60-Inch Riding Mower with 24 HP Briggs and Stratton Intek Engine

Easy handling and great maneuverability make mowing around trees, shrubs and other obstacles a breeze with Swisher's popular Zero Turn Radius riding mower. A zero-degree turn radius means this mower rotates in place 360 degrees. There's no forward motion while turning if the situation calls for it. This feature opens up a world of tight spots that this machine can get in and out of, and go where no riding mower has gone before!

Aside from its incredible maneuverability, the Zero-Turn-Radius mower is packed with dozens of cutting features and capabilities. A 60-inch cut-width makes short order of the biggest mowing jobs, yet innovative handling still makes this mower perfect for small- or medium- size lawns, too. A powerful, 24-horsepower Briggs and Stratton Intek engine easily muscles through the thickest, wettest grass. Twin commercial-grade hydrostatic transaxles spin the wheels smoothly and consistently for optimal handling and power. Ergonomic steering handles mean comfortable mowing even on those extended jobs. A ground speed range of 0 to 6 mph sets the desired pace and gets the job done fast. Three high-performance mulching/discharge blades make quick work of clippings.

For professional results, every time, Swisher designed this riding mower with a multitude of lawn-friendly features. Anti-scalp rollers keep the blade from bottoming out on rowdy terrain. Smooth, turf-friendly front tires won't leave unsightly skid marks on turns. Electronic, fingertip-operated blade engagement and disengagement offers optimal control for mowing flush with that persnickety garden bed. And, eight cutting-height settings from 1-1/2 to 5 inches make this versatile mower ideal for a wide variety of grass cutting applications.

More great features: A spring assisted deck-lift and easy-access belt components make maintenance a snap. Dual, two-gallon fuel tanks ensure continuous runtime. Beefy rear tires measuring 20- by 10- by 8- inches offer plenty of traction. Always with an eye on comfort, Swisher designed this mower with a deluxe high- back seat, adjustable legroom, and armrests to rival that favorite armchair inside. This Swisher riding mower also features a time meter to help stay on top of maintenance, and both standard and automatic parking brakes for optimal safety. --Brian Olson
