New 27-Hp FastBack™ Mid-Mount Zero-Turn Mower From Snapper Pro™ Offers Improved Operator Comfort

McDonough, Ga., (November 6, 2003)—Snapper Pro unveiled the newest addition to its FastBack line of commercial zero turn mowers at the Green Industry Expo (GIE) in St. Louis, Mo., November 6-8. Featuring a new suspension seat for enhanced operator comfort, the new model touts a 27-hp Kohler V-twin OHV engine and a 61” mower deck.

“A suspension platform between the mower frame and the seat absorbs many of the bumps and jolts an operator experiences when mowing at commercial speeds,” says William Lowe, product manager for Snapper Products. “The result is a smoother, more comfortable ride.”

Like other FastBack models, the 27-hp unit features:

• adjustable twin lever steering controls
• fan-cooled dual hydrostatic drive systems
• heavy-duty welded 7-gauge steel frame and mower deck
• three 6-point mounted, field-serviceable mower spindles
• six-position foot-assisted deck lift
• greaseable front wheel bearings
• three-position gauge wheels
• anti-scalp rollers
• two 6-gallon fuel tanks
• four ply 24” rear drive tires
• top speed of 9.5 mph
• two-year commercial warranty
