Zero Turn Mowers for Sale

What  are Zero Turn Mowers

Zero Turn Mowers are for sale at many stores and on classified ad pages in newspapers and online.  So if you are in the market for a new lawn mower and have enough grass to mow to justify a riding lawn mower then you may be considering a zero turn mower (ZT).  The interesting thing is that the name has been shortened and seems to mean just the opposite of what the original name meant.  Originally the term zero turn radius was used in the mid seventies by Dixon to describe their patented mower and it has been shortened to zero turn.  However the first person to develop zero turn mowers for sale was a man who worked for Hesston and saw their swather using counter rotation (when applied to mowers this means the wheels able to turn 360 degrees in opposite directions).  These mowers use various systems to apply the drive to the drive wheels in the same direction for moving straight or in opposition to turn giving it the literal ability to turn on a dime with its zero turn radius.

Options on Zero Turn Mowers for sale
