• Wide, raised discharge chute for more even clipping distribution

• Reinforced front lower edge for strength and durability

• Easy height-of-cut changes without tool

• Four, dual-captured, adjustable-height anti-scalp wheels

• Tube design with hanger brackets that provide a free-floating deck for smooth cut with reduced chance of scalping or scuffing by following the contour of the ground

• Easy-attach belt shields to allow quick access for service

• Wide, rolled lips for additional structural strength

• Greaseable spindles with easy top access for simplified servicing

• Two-coat paint covering to protect and resist corrosion

• Hardened steel blades that extend cutting time and increase durability

• Large discharge to evenly disperse expelled clippings

All of the controls on a WHP Series Mower are within comfortable reach of the operator.

The location and operation of the following controls on all models offer greater convenience, improved productivity, and increased safety:

• Operator presence system – the bails must be depressed to operate the unit; the machine must be in neutral and the power take-off (PTO) must be disengaged to start.

• Separate choke and throttle – this takes the guesswork out of choke operation, and there is less fouling of plugs.

• Pistol-grip controls – these controls are familiar to most operators and offer simplicity and reliability.

• Color-coded and clearly marked switches and buttons – these simplify operation.

• Bilingual decals – decals are provided in English and Spanish.

The WHP Series Mowers are equipped with an infinitely-variable hydrostatic drive system with reverse, which does the following:

• Provides infinite ground-speed adjustments - 0 mph to 7 mph (0 km/h to 11.3 km/h) to meet the mowing application

• Enables a smoother transition from one speed to another

• Gives a reverse speed of 3 mph (4.8 km/h), enabling the operator to back out of tight mowing areas and increase productivity
