BOB-CAT, a manufacturer of commercial-quality turf mowers, has introduced a new 21-inch commercial walk behind mower designed to meet the demanding needs of professional landscapers. Two self-propelled models are available—one with zone starting and one with a blade brake clutch (BBC).
The BOB-CAT 21-inch commercial walk-behind mower uses a high-vacuum, cast aluminum deck to maximize airflow and grass lift for a pristine cut. A high-lift Marbain steel blade, 2.5-bushel nylon mesh grass catcher with dust liner and mulch plug are standard. The height-of-cut ranges from 1-4 inches in half-inch increments.
The new mower is powered by a 179cc Kawasaki FJ180V KAI Series engine. A three-speed rear wheel drive transmission features steel cut gears, an internal spring clutch and full ball bearing construction. Its ground speed in third gear is 4.1 mph.
“Professional landscapers who need a 21-inch walk-behind mower for regular mowing, not just the occasional trim, will appreciate the rugged new BOB-CAT 21-inch commercial unit,” says Ron Scheffler product manager at BOB-CAT. “In addition to its durability and quality of cut, it is also very serviceable, thanks to easy access to components and replaceable tires.”
