The redesigned Stander ZK mower has a rugged 52" or 61" AERO-CORE™ deck and push-button deck lift. Its powerful 25.5 or 27 HP engine allows for mowing speed of 12.5 mph. A fully independent left/right hydro system contributes to the new mower's improved productivity. A 72" deck will be available in Spring 2015.

A newly redesigned commercial lawn mower was the highlight of Wright Manufacturing booth at the recent GIE+EXPO trade show in Louisville, KY. In fact, one of the new Stander ZK™ mowers was even suspended from the ceiling over the show floor so visitors could see the updates made to the mowing deck and undercarriage.

One of the Stander ZKs on the show floor sported an exclusive feature – a Dealers Choice Award trophy for the best new product in the wheeled equipment category.

Wright President Shawn Wolf said that the company had started with one of the company's most successful mowers and done a ground up makeover, and introduced it at GIE+EXPO. There, visitors were able to drive the mower, as well as examine it top to bottom and underneath.

The re-engineered Stander ZK has a roomier foot platform that is more comfortable and easy to step off of to exit or pick up debris. A five-gallon debris container has even been mounted on the new mower.

The new Stander ZK provides better balance and stability, especially on hills. Reinforced wheelie wheels and elastomer bumpers help the mower hug the ground on all types of terrain. Its short overall length makes this mower more maneuverable than any mid-mount Z.

The AERO-CORE deck has air-tapered surfaces that eliminate clumping, and its airflow stands grass up for a uniform cut. The deck is equipped with anti-scalp rollers for smooth, even results, even on varying terrain. Recessed caster wheels reduce the turning radius and the compact footprint improves maneuverability and reduces the space required on the trailer. For more information visit www.wrightmfg.com.
