  • The unique Toro Series/Parallel™ traction drive system provides steady traction in all conditions, even in wet grass and over undulating terrain. Its full-time, 3-wheel drive system maintains power to two of the three wheels at all times, minimising tyre spinouts and scuffing.
  • Sidewinder cutting units shift left and right a total of 61 cm. This allows the tyre tracks to be shifted within the mowing path to reduce wear on the turf.
  • The Contour™ Plus cutting technology takes quality of cut to a whole new level. Air inlet pockets keep the grass standing tall for the cleanest possible cut, while an acceleration baffle speeds clipping circulation and assures maximum power.
  • The ground-following design of each Contour™ Plus free-floating deck permits mowing the most challenging berms without scalping. Two front rollers and a rear roller allow the deck to smoothly pass over turf.
