Professional Tool Reviews for Pros
You may be aware of DEWALT’s extensive line of battery-powered outdoor equipment products, but what about gas? DEWALT has a line of zero-turn lawn mower options designed specifically to meet the needs of professional crews. We’re teaming up with DEWALT to tell you more about them!
Whether you’re starting your own lawn care business or looking for a mower built for long hours on large properties, DEWALT commercial zero-turn lawn mowers are designed with you in mind. The line covers stand-on options up to 54 inches and ride-on models up to 60 inches. We’ll get into more specific details on those in a moment.
One big advantage is DEWALT’s Pro Support Hub. Using the website or app, this service experience takes commercial ownership to a different level. You can call, text, or use the online platform to get experienced one-on-one support for your maintenance and troubleshooting needs. There’s even video call capability so your support tech can see what you see.
In addition to guidance, you’re able to get help with part recommendations and purchases. The Pro Support Hub also lets you keep track of your purchases and store product information for future reference.
Of course, sometimes it’s more convenient to visit a local dealer or service center. The Pro Support Hub can help you find those closest to you and help provide priority service once you arrive.
From the Pro Support Hub to your local dealer, it’s all about reducing your downtime and keeping your equipment running.
DEWALT’s flagship model in the commercial zero-turn lawn mower lineup is the Z260. It’s designed to tackle 4 to 10 acres with professional results.
It starts with a 24 horsepower Kawasaki® FS Series V-twin engine paired with a ZT-3400™ hydrostatic transmission that delivers up to 500 ft-lbs of output torque and tops out at 9 MPH (3.5 MPH in reverse).
The deck is 60 inches with 17 height positions (1 – 4.75 inches) and is constructed from reinforced fabricated 10-gauge steel. You can also grab the same mower with a 54-inch deck as the Z254.
For comfort and fit, an impact-absorbing seat, wide foot pan, and adjustable lap bars help tackle long days.
If you need another reason to pull the trigger on the Z260, DEWALT builds them in the USA using global materials.
Price: $7999 MSRP ($7499 MSRP with 54-inch deck)
When you need the quick mounting and dismounting of a stand-on with a large mowing deck and a smaller trailering footprint, take a look at the DEWALT X554. It features a 26 horsepower Kawasaki® FT730v EFI Series engine with an electronic throttle, 12cc Hydro-Gear® pump, and Parker® Wheel motor transmissions for precise control through turns. It boasts an impressive up to 10 MPH forward speed and up to 5 MPH in reverse.
The X554 is the largest in the stand-on line, with a 54-inch 10-gauge fabricated steel deck. It’s capable of mowing from 1 to 5-inch heights and 2 – 4-acre properties are in its wheelhouse. There’s also a 48-inch version (X548).
To improve your comfort level, there’s an oversize, thick hip pad with two inches of height adjustment. A wide platform also gives your feet plenty of room to find a comfortable ride.
The wheels are worth noting because of their size. The rear wheels are a beefy 24 inches and the front caster wheels are 13 inches, helping you manage bumpy terrain.
Like the Z260, this model is also made in the USA using global materials.
Price: $10299 MSRP
You can find DEWALT commercial mowers at The Home Depot in-store and online. Look for expansion into select Farm & Outdoor Power retailers along with independent dealers throughout 2022.
DEWALT backs these mowers with a commercial warranty and there are some differences between some of the models.
