Features

Plenty of Power for Mowing Gently-Rolling Terrain

Top studio view of a 6080A PrecisionCut Fairway Mower's uncovered engine

The 3-cylinder, 17.8-kW (23.9-hp) diesel engine is known for its power and performance in gently-rolling terrain, including the capability of powering both fairway tender conditioners and rear roller power brushes while running any reel combination. The air intake system is designed to pull clean air from the front of the machine, improving engine performance and efficiency in tough conditions.

Excellent Maneuverability and After Cut Appearance

Rear studio view of a green and black 6080A E-Cut™ Hybrid Fairway Mower

A light stance with smooth tires sized to minimize ground pressure provides an after cut appearance similar to what you would normally expect from a triplex greens mower. The standard GRIP All-Wheel Drive traction system improves traction capabilities in undulating conditions. The 3-wheel stance improves productivity with tighter turning at the end of mowed passes.

Passcode-Protected TechControl Display Puts the Supervisor in Control

Set maximum mow speed, turn speed, and transport speed to assist in providing consistency of performance from operator to operator. These settings are passcode-protected within the TechControl display, putting the supervisor in more control of each operator's cut quality and performance. Achieve more consistency from machine to machine and from operator to operator for a more uniform appearance across the course.
