Engine

The 329B and 335B contain Briggs & Stratton® air-cooled OHV Vanguard Big Block engines designed with a horizontal crankshaft for longer life and less maintenance. Where the engines differ is power capacity. The 329B is fit with an 896 cc Big Block while the 335B’s engine comes in at a slightly more powerful 993 cc. If you prefer liquid-cooled Kubota engines, the 329 is armed with a 962cc 3-cylinder Kubota MaxTorque, and the 325D boasts the 898 cc EPA Tier 4 Compliant diesel-powered Kubota MaxTorque™ model.

Design-Matched G2 Transmission

The 300 Series MidMount Mowers are equipped with a robust, design-matched G2 transmission that features a 7-micron absolute filter and a CoolFan™ hydro cooling system. This G2 transmission also features a HydroGear variable displacement 16 cc piston-pumps and high-torque Parker wheel motors.
The G2 transmission also boasts a 1,000-hour fluid change interval that reduces the need for routine maintenance.

Heavy-Duty Deck

Grasshopper extra-deep 5.5” decks are made from heavy-gauge formed steel and reinforced with an anvil leading-edge. Complete with specially designed cutting chambers to enhance airflow, our decks also contain Sentry™ spindles with 8-inch flanges anchored in a 6-bolt pattern. The formed steel spindle planes are fabricated from double-layered steel laminate and combine with the spindles to form a triple-strength deck that is nearly 1-inch thick in stress zones. Grasshopper decks are built to keep the blades level and deliver a high-quality finish every #MowDay.

Vigilant Operator Presence System™

Our low profile Rollover Protection System (ROPS) comes with an adjustable seatbelt, dampened steering levers that return to neutral from both forward and reverse, and interlock switches that shut down the engine immediately if the operator leaves the seat while the PTO is engaged or the steering levers are in drive position.

High Temperature Clutch Cut-Out

The 329 and 325D liquid-cooled models are equipped with a High Temperature Clutch Cut-Out that automatically disengages the PTO if the engine temperature reaches a certain point to prevent long-lasting damage.

QuikAjust® DropPin™ Height Adjustment

With the QuikAjust® DropPin™ Height Adjustment raising and lowering the deck of your mower has never been more convenient. Easily adjust your deck’s height anywhere from 1 to 5 inches with a single foot pedal and drop pin for ultimate precision and a smoother finish.

Ultimate Operator Station™

Our Ultimate Operator Station is equipped with a deep-cushioned, deluxe premium high-back comfort seat that features a coil-spring suspension, padded lumbar support and armrests.The operator station is iso-mounted, eliminating vibration before it reaches the operator and both the padded seat and foldable armrests are covered in scuff-resistant, CoolTemp Cordura® fabric. Additionally, the operational controls, including the throttle, ignition, choke, and more are all well positioned for visibility and ease of reach.
The operator station is equipped with ComfortReach™ adjustable Hydra-Smooth™ dual steering levers that allow for one- or two-handed operation. The levers automatically return to natural from either forward or reverse positions.

Rugged Construction

All 300 series MidMount riding lawn mowers are constructed from robotically-welded, formed steel and built to last decades. Engineered with a centered-bearing design that provides greater load-bearing capacity, these mowers can handle the weight of the operator, fuel, and high-capacity collector with ease. The 300 series is complete with a tough-as-nails powder-coated finish that is fusion-bonded—ensuring these models will resist rust, chips, and whatever else nature throw its way.

Reduced Maintenance

Every mower in the 300 Series has just five Access-Eze™ lubrication points and is equipped with self-tensioning belts, helping to cut down on maintenance time by 80%, making your day-to-day mowing operations easier.

Warranty

Commercial Use: 3 year unlimited hour limited warranty. First two years covering parts and labor and last two years only covering parts.
Residential Use: 4-year or 800 hours limited warranty (whichever comes first) covering parts and labor.
