EXMARK UNVEILS FRONTRUNNERT FRONT-MOUNT RIDING MOWER

Front-mount, zero-turn mower comes standard with hydraulic power deck-fold system

Beatrice, Neb. (Nov. 3, 2005) Exmark, the leader in manufacturing of commercial, zero-turn riding lawnmowers, is now setting the standard for front-mount riding mower technology with the introduction of the new FrontRunnerT.

FrontRunner comes equipped with a hydraulic push-button power deck lift and fold system on every model, making it the most advanced front-mount, zero-turn riding mower on the market. The push-button power deck-fold system makes it easy for the operator to clean and maintain the cutting deck on a day-to-day basis.

The all-new, agile FrontRunner can cut grass in the most hard-to-reach places, such as under fences and bushes and in ditches. FrontRunner's folded deck gives the mower a more compact size, saving valuable storage space.

"When we set out to make a front-mount riding mower, we designed it with both the professional and homeowner in mind," said Jeff Hallgren, Director of Sales and Marketing for Exmark. "FrontRunner offers all the advantages of a front-mount, and is also backed by Exmark's unmatched dealer network."

FrontRunner comes with up to a 27-horsepower Kohler Command Twin engine, or a 25-horsepower diesel Kubota engine. It also comes in either a 52- or 60-inch deck width.

In addition to designing, building and marketing quality turf-care equipment, Exmark's goal is total customer satisfaction.
