First-Of-Its-Kind Zero Turn Mower FARM HOME Lawn Mowers (31h,38) 31-2-5 Contributing editor Jim Ruen spotted Cub Cadet's new zero turn mower at the National Farm Machinery Show in Louisville. It's the first zero turn conventional riding mower with a mid-mount deck. Jim was impressed.
"It gives you the advantages and comfort of a conventional tractor along with the ability to make 360¦ turns like a front-mount mower," notes Jim. "Cub Cadet patented a new technology that made the zero turn possible. It synchronizes the front steering with independent transmissions on each of the rear wheels so when you crank the steering wheel, one rear wheel speeds up and the other slows down or reverses to make the tight turns. There's never been anything like it."
Powered by either a 20 or 25 hp Kohler OHV twin cylinder engine, the mower comes with a 46 or 50-in. deck.
