APEX 52R Zero Turn Mower

Made for service providers who mow frequently. Top components in the engine, drive and cutter deck combined with an excellent price-performance ratio.

The ‘R’ on the APEX 52 R stands for ‘rear-discharge’. The mown grass is discharged to the rear, between the wheels. Advantage: Cuttings are not thrown onto paths or into flower beds. With its first-class Kawasaki FR691 V-Twin engine, its highly stable frame and its professional cutting deck with a cutting width of 132 cm, it is ideal for commercial use.

Curved tubular steel frame

The frame, made entirely of tubular steel, forms the skeleton of the mower. It bears the entire load of the machine for many years and must be able to cope with shocks and vibrations over the long term. State-of-the-art bending technology avoids weak points due to welded joints.

Professional mowing deck

The mowing deck is the most heavily loaded component of a mower. Stability is particularly important here. The APEX has a 14 cm deep, fully welded mower deck made of 3.2 mm thick sheet steel with double spindle supports, 12.7 mm steel edge, enclosed anti-scalp wheels, all-steel pulleys, welded 4-point suspension and high-quality blade spindles made of forged aluminium. Everything about it is designed for a long service life.

Automatic belt tensioner system

The automatic CBT (Constant Belt Tension) technology keeps the belt tension of the mower deck constant at all times. This increases the service life of the belt, compensates for wear and prevents belt slippage for a consistently high-quality cutting pattern.

Mower deck lifting by foot pedal

The solid cutting deck is raised conveniently and effortlessly using a foot pedal. To select one of the 15 cutting heights from 3.8 – 12.7 cm, a metal plug is inserted into the respective recess in the display.

Easy access to the mowing deck

The mowing deck is easy to access from above for cleaning and maintenance. Thanks to CBT technology, changing the belt takes just a few minutes. Simply slacken the tensioning pulleys, thread in the belt, tension the tensioning pulleys again – done.

Padded seat and armrests

The soft, adjustable seat with high backrest is equipped with padded armrests for greater comfort even during long periods of mowing. Coil spring damping absorbs shocks on uneven surfaces.
