What the specs work out to

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

Mowing time

¼ acre9 min 6 min
½ acre18 min 13 min
1 acre36 min 25 min
2 acres1 h 12 min 51 min
5 acres3 h 2 h 6 min

About 36 min per acre at 1.66 acres/hour, mowing at 4.9 mph. The second figure is at the published 7.0 mph top speed (2.38 acres/hour) — faster than anyone really mows. About 5.0 acres per tank.

Weight & hauling

Machine weight660 lb
+ 6×12 trailer900 lb
Towed weight1,560 lb
single-axle 3,500 lbCarries it, 1,940 lb spare
tandem-axle 7,000 lbCarries it, 5,440 lb spare

Needs a single-axle 3,500 lb trailer and a vehicle rated to tow at least 1,560 lb.

Gate & trailer fit

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

Needs at least 50 in of clearance.

Power & run time

Power per deck inch0.369 hp/in
Run time per tank~3.0 h

Mowing times assume 1.66 acres/hour: deck width x 4.9 mph at 80% efficiency, which allows for overlap, turns and trimming. 4.9 mph is 70% of the 7.0 mph top speed Toro publishes - almost nobody mows flat out. The "at top speed" figure is the same sum at 7.0 mph, shown so you can see it.

Fit uses Toro's published overall width.

Towed weight adds a 900 lb allowance for a 6x12 open utility trailer to Toro'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.
