What the specs work out to

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

Mowing time

  • ¼ acre3 min 2 min
  • ½ acre6 min 4 min
  • 1 acre12 min 9 min
  • 2 acres25 min 17 min
  • 5 acres1 h 1 min 43 min
  • 10 acres2 h 3 min 1 h 26 min

About 12 min per acre at 4.89 acres/hour, mowing at 8.4 mph. The second figure is at the published 12.0 mph top speed (6.98 acres/hour) — faster than anyone really mows. About 68.5 acres per tank.

Weight & hauling

  • Machine weight1,400 lb
  • + 6×12 trailer900 lb
  • Towed weight2,300 lb
  • single-axle 3,500 lbCarries it, 1,200 lb spare
  • tandem-axle 7,000 lbCarries it, 4,700 lb spare

Needs a single-axle 3,500 lb trailer and a vehicle rated to tow at least 2,300 lb.

Gate & trailer fit

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

Needs at least 79 in of clearance (estimated).

Power & run time

  • Power per deck inch0.486 hp/in
  • Run time per tank~14.0 h

Mowing times assume 4.89 acres/hour: deck width x 8.4 mph at 80% efficiency, which allows for overlap, turns and trimming. 8.4 mph is 70% of the 12.0 mph top speed Exmark publishes - almost nobody mows flat out. The "at top speed" figure is the same sum at 12.0 mph, shown so you can see it.

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

Towed weight adds a 900 lb allowance for a 6x12 open utility trailer to Exmark's published machine weight. Your trailer's own weight is on its VIN plate. Tongue weight, axle placement and your vehicle's tow rating are still yours to check — this is the load, not a loading plan.

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