    Features May Include: 

    High Quality Parts

    • Commercial-grade DNA is a key characteristic of Spartan Mowers, so our models feature the same heavy-duty components across the lineup. 

    Design & Style

    • Our passion for muscle cars from the late '60s has fueled the design of Spartan Mowers. Mow in style and turn heads with the stealthy profile of a Spartan.

    U.S.A.

    • Our models are made with U.S. and global parts at our facility in Batesville, Arkansas. We're proud of our hardworking team and community.

    Enhanced XTF Deck System

    • Our Xtreme Turf Flow (XTF) decks have been redesigned and enhanced to meet the spring, summer, and fall mowing conditions everywhere. 

    LED Light Kits

    • Mounted directly to the front of the mower, an LED light bar is great for finishing up at dusk and lighting the way to your trailer or shed. 

    HD Fusion Welded Frames

    • Constructed from heavy-duty 3" x 1.5" 11-gauge tube steel, Spartan Mower frames are built tough.

    EZ Debris Removal

    • To help keep your machine cleaner after each use, our belt covers are open in all directions for easy removal of accumulated debris.

    Anti-Slip Mat

    • All models are equipped with a rubber anti-slip foot mat that helps reduce vibration from the transmission to the operator’s foot.
