Product Features
Forged aluminum spindles and a wide 48-in. stand-on deck give you 13 cutting height positions from 1.5 to 4.5 in., with an electric Warner clutch and a spring-assisted hand deck lift.
The 725.9cc Kawasaki® FS651V delivers strong commercial-grade power and a 4.5-gallon tank so you can mow larger properties without stopping to refuel.
Dual Hydro-Gear® ZT-2800® transaxles deliver a 7 mph forward ground speed and precise zero-turn maneuverability on the wide 48-in. deck.
The RIDGELINE 48 ships with a 3-year or 400-hour product warranty — commercial-grade protection for a stand-on platform built for daily use on bigger properties.

Very impressed with the new RIDGELINE 48. Bought it mostly for the wide deck and the maneuverability. Did NOT expect the improvement in cutting performance — this thing is awesome. All in all, I love the new RIDGELINE 48 and hope it lasts many years like my old machine.

I have 3 sons and I gave my oldest and middle my old mowers as soon as I made the last payment. This one will go to my youngest in a few years. The first one is 9 years old now and has needed nothing but a deck belt, 1 set of blades and 1 battery. I mow 7 acres every week.

I purchased a RIDGELINE 48 and got a great deal. The first lawn I mowed with it I was blown away at how well this thing cuts — so much better than the old machine it replaced. It's much faster and the Hydro-Gear transaxles are much better. Power, deck design and the Kawasaki engine are awesome.

Before buying my RIDGELINE 48 I had only ever used a push mower, so I was a little unsure of myself. But the mower turned out to be easy to use and maintain, and now I wonder why I didn't get one earlier. Reliable, versatile and easy to operate on my high-bush blueberry farm.

Just purchased my RIDGELINE 48 this week. 1. It handles my steep yard with little fuss. 2. The stand-on platform takes some getting used to, but works like described. 3. The 48-in. deck cuts well — the extra width let me cut under my fence. 4. The turn radius for a machine this size is amazing.

I bought this mower three years ago and have not been disappointed. Much better, and far more power than the old tractor I had for 20 years. The 48-in. deck is more than I need, but I like getting the yard mowed quickly. It handles my steep hills very well.

Coming from a big-box store tractor, the difference in build quality is night and day. The hand deck lift is a small luxury I now would not give up, and maintenance is simple. Only wish is that the LED headlights were standard at this price.

Two acres of hillside plus a long gravel drive. The RIDGELINE 48 mows it faster and cleaner than anything I have owned.
