GROUNDSKEEPING
Which is a cut above ? When looking at the strengths and weaknesses of both side and rear discharge decks , it ’ s clear both warrant their place in the garden , each being a master of its own terrain . How then can we settle this long-standing debate ? Actually , it ’ s quite simple . Instead of arguing over which is better , decide upon the right deck for the job and focus more on mower build . With so many varying and difficult landscaping scenarios , landscaping professionals need a mower that can get the job done on the first try , that doesn ’ t compromise on quality . One that has the power , durability and craftsmanship of the Ariens
APEX 48 RD . Ariens , renowned for its industry leading side discharge mowers , is now manufacturing rear discharge mowers with its APEX 48 RD rear discharge petrol zero-turn mower leading the way .
The APEX 48 RD is designed to overcome the unique lawn challenges faced by UK and European landscapers , including the need for rear discharge where necessary . Ariens works with thousands of landscape specialists across the continent and even set up a manufacturing base in Oxford to not only produce the APEX 48 RD zero-turn mower but be closer to the men and women powering them .
When it comes to which deck is best , it all depends on the type of work that must be completed . If flexibility and cut quality is needed , a side discharge deck will operate better , whereas , if speed , uniform trimming discharge and safety are priorities , a rear discharge deck is a step ahead . But , no matter what deck you decide to go with , don ’ t skimp on quality . Put your trust in a manufacturer that , as well as having decades of experience you can rely on , expertly builds mowers that produce the results you need first time , every time .
