What the specs work out to

Figures MowerFacts computes from Dixie Chopper’s own numbers — not published by the manufacturer.

Gate & trailer fit

  • 32 in gateToo wide
  • 36 in gateToo wide
  • 48 in gateToo wide

Needs at least 54 in of clearance (estimated).

Power & run time

  • Power per deck inch0.5 hp/in
  • Run time per tank~6.8 h

Fit uses the deck width plus 6 in for the discharge chute, because Dixie Chopper doesn't publish an overall width — measure before buying if a gate is tight.

Run time assumes a typical 1 gal/hour burn at working load; real consumption varies with engine, load and cut.
