What the specs work out to

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

Mowing time

  • ¼ acre4 min 3 min
  • ½ acre9 min 6 min
  • 1 acre17 min 12 min
  • 2 acres35 min 24 min
  • 5 acres1 h 27 min 1 h 1 min
  • 10 acres2 h 54 min 2 h 2 min

About 17 min per acre at 3.45 acres/hour, mowing at 7.0 mph. The second figure is at the published 10.0 mph top speed (4.93 acres/hour) — faster than anyone really mows. About 29.3 acres per tank.

Weight & hauling

  • Machine weight1,532 lb
  • + 6×12 trailer900 lb
  • Towed weight2,432 lb
  • single-axle 3,500 lbCarries it, 1,068 lb spare
  • tandem-axle 7,000 lbCarries it, 4,568 lb spare

Needs a single-axle 3,500 lb trailer and a vehicle rated to tow at least 2,432 lb.

Gate & trailer fit

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

Needs at least 67 in of clearance (estimated).

Power & run time

  • Power per deck inch0.484 hp/in
  • Run time per tank~8.5 h

Mowing times assume 3.45 acres/hour: deck width x 7.0 mph at 80% efficiency, which allows for overlap, turns and trimming. 7.0 mph is 70% of the 10.0 mph top speed Altoz publishes - almost nobody mows flat out. The "at top speed" figure is the same sum at 10.0 mph, shown so you can see it.

Fit uses the deck width plus 6 in for the discharge chute, because Altoz 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 Altoz'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.

What size trailer do I need for the Altoz TSX 561 i?

At 1,532 lb, the Altoz TSX 561 i on a typical 6x12 open utility trailer (about 900 lb empty) is roughly 2,432 lb of towed weight. That is within a single-axle 3,500 lb trailer, and your tow vehicle needs to be rated for at least 2,432 lb.
