Three reasons to add a stand-on to your fleet

Posted on:Nov 30, 2022

With the release of the Grasshopper Stand-On Mower, you may be wondering why you would want to consider adding a stand-on mower to your fleet. If your off-season consists of holiday shopping for new mowers, then you’re in the right place.

Functionality

Whether it’s moving through a narrow gate or maneuvering around a smaller property than you’re used to, the Grasshopper Stand-On Mower has particular specs perfect for small jobs that need big-time power to get them done. In addition, the Grasshopper Stand-On Adjustable Command Center Tower provides 4.5"of adjustable range, allowing you enhanced visibility from any angle, while also allowing you to give your customers the best cut on #MowDay.

 

Transport and Storage

The compact frame of the Stand-On model makes for easier transportation than many sit-down zero-turn mowers. With the extra room on your trailer after loading your compact Stand-On, you can load more mowers. And when #MowDay is done and it’s time to put the mowers away, you’ll have an easier time storing your fleet because of the smaller specs of the Stand-On.

Health Benefits

It’s no secret that standing is better for your health than sitting all day. While sit-down mowers still have their place in the mowing equipment industry, with a stand-on, getting those standing hours in is no problem. Science has proved being on your feet leads to more energy throughout the day. In a perfect world, every property you mow would be a bump-free ride. However, with the Stand-On, your legs can absorb those jolts, instead of your stomach turning inside-out with every bump you mow over.

There are so many benefits to adding a stand-on mower to your fleet. While there are many stand-on mowers to choose from, the Grasshopper Stand-On should definitely be at the top of your list.
