Dewalt debuts gas outdoor power equipment
MTD Products is debuting a new line of DeWalt professional gas outdoor power equipment. The line includes walk-behind and hydro-walk mowers, stand-on mowers and zero-turn riding mowers. DeWalt commercial gas outdoor power equipment is manufactured by MTD Products and sold under license from Stanley Black & Decker. Stanley Black & Decker is in the process of buying MTD Products.
- Z260 professional zero-turn mower – This 60-inch mower is built to tackle four to 10 acres with a 24 HP Kawasaki engine. The line’s most powerful transmission delivers up to 500 ft./lb. of output torque. It includes ergonomic and customizable features like an automotive-inspired, adjustable, padded high-back seat; a dial-in adjustable lap bar and a wide foot pan. (The mower is also available in a 54-inch model, the Z254.)
- X554 professional stand-on mower – Stand-on functionality with a large platform enables quick on-and-off action with heavy duty build and large rear and front wheels. The frame is matched with a premium pump and wheel motor transmission. The large, adjustable hip pad matches operator height for all-day comfort. (The mower is also available in a 48-inch model, the X548.)
- HW48 48-inch professional hydro-walk mower – This mower is built with a 15 HP Kawasaki FS engine, heavy-duty construction and thicker essential frame components. Single-lever, infinite-speed control delivers quick, on-the-fly speed adjustments and contoured controls reduce fatigue and vibration. A low center of gravity and wide wheelbase keep this machine tracking straight on rugged, hilly terrain.
- X536 professional stand-on mower, available in spring 2022 – This mower offers stand-on functionality with a new 36-inch cutting deck. For all-day comfort, the large hip pad adjusts and matches the operator’s height. Designed for productivity and jobsite efficiency, this versatile mower has smooth controls and fast response times from the transmission.
- Z160 professional zero-turn mower – A durable 1.5-by-3-inch tubular steel frame provides maximum strength and rigidity with easy access points for routine maintenance of this 60-inch mower. The state-of-the-art wheel and caster design provides a more professional cut, optimizes trim capabilities and maintains a smooth ride at higher speeds. (The mower is also available in a 48-inch model, the Z148.)
The DeWalt line of professional gas mowers also includes the DW33 33-in. wide-area walk-behind mower. It has a 344cc engine for powerful, consistent performance, while the 33-inch reinforced steel cutting deck is wide enough for high productivity, yet slim enough to fit through gates and other tight spaces. An eight-position deck height adjustment fine-tunes every cut, and 8-inch caster front wheels handle bumps and tough terrain.
The line is also designed with the Pro Support Hub. Available through the app or website, the Pro Support Hub gives owners priority service at a network of local authorized dealers, fast access to dedicated customer support experts, a parts finder to quickly identify and order parts and more.
Handheld equipment introduced includes a brushcutter, edger, pole saw, hedge trimmer and two string trimmers that all feature 2-cycle, 27cc full-crank, commercial-grade engines, as well as attachment capability. The lineup has overmolded handles designed to lessen hand strain, and all products have a three-year limited warranty. MTD’s Dewalt-branded products in booth No. 7068 include:
- DXGST227BC 27cc 2-Cycle gas brushcutter – Featuring a heavy-duty metal brush blade to cut through dense overgrowth.
- DXGSE straight stick edger – Designed to tackle deep edges with a 7.5-inch steel blade.
- DXGP210 gas pole saw – Designed with a low-kickback, 10-inch bar and chain for added safety and an automatic oiler that keeps it well-lubricated to minimize maintenance. The attached 7-foot extension pole allows for a longer reach.
- DXGHT22 pole hedge trimmer – Featuring 22-inch dual-action blades to cut thick branches and shrubbery while 135 degrees of movement offers the agility to hedge from multiple angles.
- DXGST227CS 17-inch gas curved shaft string trimmer and DXGST227SS 17-inch gas straight shaft string trimmer – Built with a large 17-inch cutting swath and quickly re-spools with the easy load bump head.
