Grasshopper Model 125V

Heavy-duty Deck 

• Extra-deep, 5.5-inch deck is fabricated from heavy-gauge formed steel with a reinforced anvil edge
• Specially designed cutting chambers enhance airflow for better cut quality
• Deck easily converts from side discharge to optional Down Discharge™ mulching or PowerVac™ collection
• Sentry™ spindles with massive, 8-inch flanges anchored in a 6-bolt pattern, spread the force of impact for greater strength
• Spindle planes are fabricated from double-layered formed steel laminate and combine with the spindles to form a triple-strength deck to keep blades level and deliver a high-quality cut.
• Sentry™ spindle guards shield spindle housing and seal lower bearings from fiber wrap and dirt ingestion

Vigilant Operator Presence System™ 

• Standard, low profile operator protection structure (OPS) with an adjustable seatbelt
• Dampened steering levers that return to neutral from forward and reverse
• Interlock switches that shut down the engine when the operator leaves the seat while PTO is engaged or levers are in drive position

Design-Matched Transmission 

• Design-matched, fully hydraulic Parker HT Series integrated pump-and-wheel-motor transmissions with in-line cooling fans and fine-particle filtration
• No power-robbing gearbox or other wear parts for longer service life
• Provides best-in-class transmission fluid change interval with no break-in period, reducing costs and maintenance time

Shock Impact Reduction System™(SIRS™)

• Unrivaled comfort with iso-mounted Ultimate Suspension Ride™ scuff-resistant, Cordura®-covered, deep-cushioned, high-back seat with padded lumbar support and armrests
• Roomy, iso-mounted, shock-absorbing footrest

Kohler Confidant Engine 

• Professional-grade 747 cc Kohler Confidant OHV V-Twin engine
• Designed to maximize airflow and reduce operating temperatures for extended service life
• Heavy-duty cyclonic air filter with Quad-Clean™ multi-stage air filtration
• Full-pressure lubrication to protect critical components

QuikAjust® Drop Pin Height Adjustment

• Raise and lower the deck easily with foot pedal and drop pin for precision cutting heights between 1.0 and 5.0 inches.

Reduced Maintenance 

• Only two Access-Eze™ lubrication points cut maintenance time up to 95%
• Self-tensioning belts minimize cost and labor on routine maintenance

Rugged Construction 

• Robotically-welded steel construction for long-lasting durability
• Centered-bearing design provides greater load-bearing capacity to handle the weight of operator, fuel and high-capacity collector with reserve strength for curb shocks and weight shifts
• Tough-as-nails powder-coated finish is fusion-bonded for chip and rust resistance

Ultimate Operator Station™

• The deep-cushioned, deluxe Premium Comfort Seat features a coil-spring suspension and padded lumbar support with sliding 2-inch fore and aft adjustment for all-day comfort. Iso-mounting eliminates vibration before it reaches the seat, and both padded seat and foldable armrests are covered in scuff-resistant, breathable CoolTemp Cordura® fabric, which dissipates heat and won’t tear or crack with extended use.
• Operational controls including throttle, ignition and push/pull PTO switches, choke, angled View-Eze™ console and adjustable cup holder are well positioned for visibility and ease of reach.
• One- or two-handed operation with ComfortReach™ adjustable Hydra-Smooth™ dual levers that automatically return to neutral from either forward or reverse position.
