Ariens APEX 23-hp 60 Inch Zero Turn Mower
Description
The Ariens APEX 23-hp Zero Turn Mower is built for homeowners with large yards who need to mow quickly without sacrificing cut quality. A Kawasaki FR V-Twin engine sits at the heart of the machine, paired with Hydro-Gear ZT-3100 transaxles that push forward speeds to 8 MPH and reverse to 4 MPH. The 60-inch ENVY deck is fabricated from 10-gauge steel and measures 5½ inches deep, creating optimal airflow for professional cutting performance in all mowing conditions. The fully welded tubular frame, made from enclosed rectangular tubing, keeps everything rigid over rough ground. Oversized 22-inch rear and 13-inch front tires provide confident traction on hills and soft turf. The APEX simplifies routine upkeep with metal open-ended belt covers and a floor pan that lifts for direct access to the top of the deck for cleaning.
