ARIENS Zero Turn Apex Mower (48 inch)

Engineered for Reliability and Demanding Workloads

The Ariens APEX 48 Zero Turn Ride-On Mower is built for users who expect strength and high performance. Its curved tubular steel frame serves as the backbone of the machine, handling the mower’s entire structural load. This solid construction absorbs everyday shocks and vibrations while operating across rough terrain. With advanced bending techniques, it avoids weak points caused by traditional welds. The result is a durable and rigid structure suited for regular use in commercial settings.

Exceptional Power with Commercial Drive Systems

At its core, the APEX 48 runs on a Kawasaki FR691 V-Twin engine with 726 cm³ displacement and 20.8 horsepower. This engine is powerful and dependable, supporting demanding tasks with ease and consistent output. Paired with Hydro-Gear ZT-3100 transaxles, the mower delivers responsive control and reliable traction. It reaches forward speeds of 12.9 km/h and reverses up to 6.4 km/h without lag. The 19.3-litre fuel tank ensures fewer refills and uninterrupted work on larger areas.

Advanced ENVY Deck for Outstanding Cutting Quality

The APEX 48 features the new ENVY fabricated cutting deck with a 122 cm width and exceptional airflow enhancements. Designed for high performance, this 10-gauge steel deck includes extra reinforcement around the blade mounts. Its 14 cm depth improves grass lift and allows smooth processing of larger volumes. The four-point suspension ensures the deck remains parallel for a uniform finish. Forged aluminium spindles cool more effectively and resist impact better than traditional cast versions. These features work together to deliver precise, reliable cutting results every time.

CBT System Maintains Performance Across Every Job

The Constant Belt Tension (CBT) system keeps belt tension consistent throughout operation, reducing slippage and improving blade performance. This also extends the lifespan of the belts and reduces the need for adjustments. The V-belt spindle drive and electric Ogura clutch allow clean and smooth engagement when starting or stopping. This system supports a professional-quality cut with minimal user input and dependable performance.

Foot-Pedal Deck Lift with Fifteen Cutting Heights

Adjusting cutting height is simple with the spring-assisted foot pedal lifting system. The deck can be set to fifteen positions ranging from 3.8 cm to 12.7 cm. A steel pin system holds your selected height securely to maintain precision. This setup enables fast transitions between mowing zones without slowing you down.

Comfort-Focused Design for Long Working Days

Operator comfort is a major focus of the APEX 48, with a high-back seat and thick padded armrests included. Coil spring suspension beneath the seat absorbs rough terrain shocks, keeping the user steady and relaxed. New ergonomic steering levers are shaped for better grip and smoother control over long sessions. Together, these comfort features reduce operator fatigue and help maintain precision throughout the day.

Simple Maintenance for Continued Performance

Maintaining the APEX 48 is made easy through the accessible top-mounted mower deck. CBT technology makes belt replacement quick and tool-friendly for minimal downtime. Steel spindle shafts and StressProof components increase strength where it matters most. With optional rollover protection and multiple accessory options, this mower adapts to meet your individual needs. The compact length of 201 cm allows for easy storage and improved handling in confined spaces.

Its compact profile and smooth control allow precise mowing between obstacles and along uneven ground.
