Features
Kawasaki V-Twin engine
Fully pressure-lubricated, two-cylinder Kawasaki engine with oil pump and oil filter. Powerful and quiet.
Palm deck release
The deck automatically lowers into position with just a tap of the palm
Flip-up platform
The flip-up platform allows operator to handle difficult terrain and areas of limited maneuverability in a fast and efficient manner
Stand between the axles
Positioning the operator between the wheels instead of behind the wheels places weight in a more appropriate location for enhanced traction. It reduces the operator effort in staying perfectly balanced, especially during zero turn maneuvers.
Operators console
With all of the controls at the operator's fingertips and well protected by the operator assist bars, ease of use is premium.
With an extended cast handle and spring assist, the V500 has the most ergonomic deck lift in stand-on mowing. Easy to raise and easy to lower reduces strain throughout the workday.
For minor service and cleaning, the removal of operators cushion is fast and efficient, keeping up-time at a maximum.
V500 features the fastest method of disengaging the hydraulic transmissions available today. One lever pull is all it takes to make both transmissions go to bypass mode.
