Operating a Vertex mower is easy, thanks to the simple, ergonomic design. Key, choke, throttle, height of cut adjustment...they're all right there. Hop on, and you're ready to go.
Designed to place the operator in a position of comfortable control. The wide, open platform offers more room for the operator to adjust their stance, while the ergonomic control panel places all vital controls close for easy reach and operation.
All models are equipped with Exmark UltraCut Series 4 side-discharge cutting decks. The decks feature flow-control baffles, anti-scalp rollers, and a rod-style floating deck design for easy deck rake adjustments. The result is a signature cut quality on any turf type.
With no in-season grease points, flat-free semi-pneumatic front caster tires, and maintenance-free sealed bearing cutter housings, Vertex S-Series is designed to minimize in-season maintenance and the downtime that goes with it.
These units are easy to service thanks to the tools-free access to the engine and hydro drive components. The reliable single-belt drive system is simple and easy to maintain, and Exmark’s patented spherical idler bearings require only annual lubrication.
Choose from a fuel-saving EFI Kohler or carbureted Kawasaki commercial engine. Both engines feature heavy-duty canister-style air filtration systems and pressurized lubrication for maximum durability in daily commercial use.
The single-point height of cut makes it easy to accurately set deck height without tools. This enables the operator to quickly change cut height by simply raising and lowering the deck.
This full-floating deck uses maintenance free spindle with a splined blade driver to stop bolt tightening on impacts. And, our patented bearing design on idler arm pivots only needs annual service.
