USA: Zero Turn Lawn Mowers: Zero Turn Lawn Mower Manufacturers
ABOUT ZERO TURN LAWN MOWERS
Zero Turn Lawn Mowers are gasoline powered ride-on lawn mowers which can turn sharply, even within their own length. This is achieved by turning the rear wheels at different speeds, in the manner of a tracked military vehicle. To turn on the spot, each rear wheel is turned in a different direction. Zero Turn Lawn Mowers are considerably more expensive than normal ride-on lawn mowers, but have the advantage that their maneuverability enables mowing to take place right up to obstacles such as trees. Zero Turn Lawn Mowers were originally developed for commercial use, for speed and productivity.
