What the specs work out to
Figures MowerFacts computes from Exmark’s own numbers — not published by the manufacturer.
Mowing time

- ½ acre18 min 12 min
- 1 acre36 min 25 min
- 2 acres1 h 11 min 50 min
- 5 acres2 h 58 min 2 h 5 min
About 36 min per acre at 1.68 acres/hour, mowing at 4.3 mph. The second figure is at the published 6.2 mph top speed (2.4 acres/hour) — faster than anyone really mows. About 8.4 acres per tank.
Gate & trailer fit

- 36 in gateToo wide
- 48 in gateToo wide
Needs at least 54 in of clearance (estimated).
Power & run time
- Power per deck inch0.302 hp/in
- Run time per tank~5.0 h
Mowing times assume 1.68 acres/hour: deck width x 4.3 mph at 80% efficiency, which allows for overlap, turns and trimming. 4.3 mph is 70% of the 6.2 mph top speed Exmark publishes - almost nobody mows flat out. The "at top speed" figure is the same sum at 6.2 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.
Run time assumes a typical 1 gal/hour burn at working load; real consumption varies with engine, load and cut.
