ARIENS Apex Zero Turn Mower (52 inch)

Engineered for Professionals and Demanding Landscapes

The Ariens APEX 52 Zero Turn Ride-On Mower is built for serious users who demand commercial-grade performance and durability. It offers a powerful solution for regular mowing across large gardens or wide open spaces. It features a 726 cm³ Kawasaki FR691 V-Twin engine that produces 20.8 horsepower at 3600 rpm. This air-cooled engine delivers consistent power and exceptional performance, whether you’re trimming weekly or tackling heavy growth.

Outstanding Deck Design for Superior Cutting

The new ENVY cutting deck redefines what you can expect from a mower at this level. It’s constructed from 3.6 mm thick steel with double thickness around the blade support area. The 132 cm (52″) deck is welded for maximum strength and features improved airflow for cleaner cuts. Grass is lifted more efficiently thanks to the enlarged discharge and enhanced suction, resulting in a neater finish every time. Forged aluminium spindles run cooler and resist vibration better than cast versions, ensuring long-term durability.

Smooth, Adjustable, and Reliable Cutting

The APEX 52 offers fifteen cutting heights ranging from 3.8 cm to 12.7 cm. Selecting your desired height is simple with a foot-operated lift system and a metal pin. You can easily adapt the cutting height to seasonal changes or different grass types. With three steel blades powered by a V-belt and controlled by an electric Ogura clutch, the mower delivers clean, consistent cuts with every pass. You can choose between side discharge or rear discharge, with an optional mulching kit available.

Constant Belt Tension for Less Maintenance

This mower includes Ariens’ CBT (Constant Belt Tension) system, which maintains optimal tension throughout the deck’s life. It reduces wear on the belts and prevents slippage, maintaining excellent cut quality during long sessions. The belt system is also easy to maintain, making replacements quick and hassle-free. You simply release the tensioning pulleys, fit the new belt, and re-tension it in minutes. The design reduces downtime and keeps your machine ready to go when you are.

Built for Operator Comfort and Control

The APEX 52 is made to keep you comfortable during long hours of mowing. It comes with a high-back padded seat that includes adjustable armrests for added support. The steering levers are shaped for comfort and control, reducing strain on your hands and wrists. The adjustable seating position ensures the right fit for users of different sizes. Whether you’re working a short job or mowing several acres, you’ll appreciate the thoughtful ergonomic design.

Hydrostatic Drive for Smooth Handling

A pair of Hydro-Gear ZT-3100 transaxles deliver smooth, responsive drive control. The mower reaches speeds of up to 12.9 km/h forward and 6.4 km/h in reverse. It handles hills, turns, and complex layouts with ease, making mowing quicker and less stressful. The ride is controlled and smooth, offering professional-grade manoeuvrability at every turn. Combined with large 22-inch rear tyres and a strong tubular steel frame, the APEX 52 is built to perform on all terrain types.

Strong Construction for Long-Term Use

The fully welded curved tubular steel frame forms a solid base that handles heavy workloads with ease. It’s made using precision bending techniques to avoid weak points caused by welding. The entire mower is designed to cope with vibrations and shocks across many years of regular use. With a weight of 395 kg and a commercial-grade build throughout, this machine is made for durability and reliability.

Versatility and Customisation Options

The APEX 52 supports a variety of optional accessories, including front axle wheels, mulching kits, and ROPS rollover protection. These upgrades help tailor the mower to your garden’s layout and your mowing needs. With a large 19.3-litre fuel tank, you can cover more ground between refuels. If you’re a contractor or a demanding homeowner, the APEX 52 is the perfect match for serious mowing tasks.
