Compare Mowers

List prices are the manufacturer’s published figures, re-checked daily; they exclude tax, freight and dealer setup.

A side-by-side reference of each model's stated specifications. MowerFacts doesn’t give opinions: where a published, spec-derived rule can separate machines we mark a Data Pick and show the rule; here, read the values and decide what fits your needs.

Best suited for

What each model is built for, from its duty class and key specs. This is a neutral reference — MowerFacts does not rank one model above another.

  • Kubota SZ26NC-61-2 — commercial: daily paid use and high acreage; 61-inch deck; gas powered
  • Kubota F2510E — commercial: daily paid use and high acreage; 60-inch deck
What’s different? The 5 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
  1. SZ26NC-61-2 holds 6.5 gal (24.6 L) of fuel; F2510E holds 16.1 gal (61 L) of fuel, a 9.6 gal difference. Tank size bounds how long a machine runs between stops. Consumption varies with engine, load and speed, so hours per tank are not fixed.
  2. SZ26NC-61-2 uses a Kawasaki FT730VEFI engine; F2510E uses a Kubota D1105 engine. The engine maker builds the engine; the mower maker chooses the model, rating and fit, so the badge alone does not settle output or longevity.
  3. SZ26NC-61-2 weighs 1,034 lbs (469.1 kg); F2510E weighs 1,683 lbs (763.6 kg), a 649 lbs difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What SZ26NC-61-2's weight means for a trailer ›
  4. SZ26NC-61-2 has a Hydro-Gear ZT3600 transmission; F2510E has a Kubota HST transmission. The transmission grade tracks duty rating and speed. Grade names are each maker's own and are not comparable across brands.
  5. SZ26NC-61-2 runs on Gasoline; F2510E runs on Diesel. Fuel type sets what you buy and store; it is not a measure of power.
