The Groundsmaster® 5900-D rotary mower offers an impressive 16' (4.88 meter) cutting width for making quick work of even the largest jobs. Equipped with a 72 hp (53.7 kW) diesel engine, the 5900-D is powerful and efficient. The onboard InfoCenter™ provides diagnostics to identify potential maintenance issues. These features, along with the SmartCool™ system with an auto-reversing cooling fan, ensure a long, productive life.
Features may include:
Mows 20.8 Acres/Hour
One Groundsmaster 5900 has the equivalent production of two 11 ft (3.4m) mowers or four 6 ft (1.8m) out front rotaries.
EnergySmart Efficiency
We designed this machine to be powerful, yet energy efficient. System designs improve horsepower efficiency through: Hydraulics: (12hp savings) Cooling: (7hp savings) Cutting: (10hp savings).
Heavy Duty Spindle
Ductile cast iron spindle housing is large in diameter [9 in. (229 mm) at the base] to dissipate impact loads. Dual tapered roller bearings last up to six times longer than ball bearings.
Reduced Operator Vibration
4-way adjustable seat and air-ride suspension isolate the operator platform to reduce noise and vibration.
0" Uncut Circle
The ability to mow a 0" (0 cm) uncut circle - without wheel brakes - allows you to easily mow striping patterns without leaving any grass uncut.
