EXMARK'S NEW PHAZERT AN ALTERNATIVE TO A WALK-BEHIND

Beatrice, Neb. (Nov. 3, 2005) Figuring out a way to fit a riding mower through a standard gate became much easier for landscape professionals with the release of Exmark's new PhazerT zero-turn riding lawn mower.

Phazer was designed with the gated property in mind. Most gates are 36 inches wide, and Phazer comes with a 34-inch cutting deck, as narrow as a typical walk-behind. Phazer, however, comes with a powerful or 19 horsepower Kawasaki engine that delivers more productivity than a comparable walk-behind, to handle mulching discharge.

And Phazer also comes with the same cutting-deck system that made Exmark the brand professionals choose 2 to 1 over any other, meaning it has the same superior cut quality and reliability professionals expect from Exmark.

"Operators have been asking for a quicker and more convenient way to handle the challenges of a gated property," said Jeff Hallgren, Director of Sales and Marketing for Exmark. "Phazer is the perfect solution to take care of the areas previously unreachable by a riding mower."

Phazer was designed with a low center of gravity, making the riding mower more stable than other compact machines. Each Phazer comes with 18-inch tires to further enhance stability. Mulch kits are available on all Phazer models.

For increased productivity, Phazer is also available with a 44-inch cutting deck.

Exmark Manufacturing was incorporated in 1982 and, since its inception, has been engaged in the design and manufacture of mid-size, commercial walk-behind and riding lawnmowers for the landscape professionals. In addition to designing, building and marketing quality turf-care equipment, Exmark's goal is total customer satisfaction. Products are sold to distributors who, in turn, market to dealers throughout the continental United States and Canada.
