What the specs work out to
Figures MowerFacts computes from Craftsman’s own numbers — not published by the manufacturer.
Mowing time
- ¼ acre22 min 15 min
- ½ acre44 min 31 min
- 1 acre1 h 28 min 1 h 2 min
- 2 acres2 h 57 min 2 h 4 min
About 88 min per acre at 0.68 acres/hour, mowing at 2.8 mph. The second figure is at the published 4.0 mph top speed (0.97 acres/hour) — faster than anyone really mows.
Weight & hauling
- Machine weight360 lb
- + 6×12 trailer900 lb
- Towed weight1,260 lb
- single-axle 3,500 lbCarries it, 2,240 lb spare
- tandem-axle 7,000 lbCarries it, 5,740 lb spare
Needs a single-axle 3,500 lb trailer and a vehicle rated to tow at least 1,260 lb.
Gate & trailer fit
- 32 in gateToo wide
- 36 in gateFits
- 48 in gateFits
Needs at least 36 in of clearance (estimated).
Mowing times assume 0.68 acres/hour: deck width x 2.8 mph at 80% efficiency, which allows for overlap, turns and trimming. 2.8 mph is 70% of the 4.0 mph top speed Craftsman publishes - almost nobody mows flat out. The "at top speed" figure is the same sum at 4.0 mph, shown so you can see it.
Fit uses the deck width plus 6 in for the discharge chute, because Craftsman 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 Craftsman'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.

At 360 lb, the Craftsman 56V MAX Cordless Brushless 30-in Compact Riding Lawn Mower on a typical 6x12 open utility trailer (about 900 lb empty) is roughly 1,260 lb of towed weight.
