All 1500 TerrainCut models can be equipped with a 60-inch/72-inch 7-Iron PRO side-discharge deck, or 62-inch/72-inch Fastback rear-discharge deck options. These decks come standard with flat free semi-pneumatic caster tires that increase uptime to finish the job. Ideal for challenging weather conditions, the 1575 and 1585 models are available with an industry-exclusive, factory-installed ComfortCab for climate-controlled comfort. The ComfortCab comes standard with HVAC, front work lights, flashers, turn signals, windshield wiper, an upholstered, air suspension seat, and tilt steering. Curved glass and single pane tempered windows provide an unobstructed view no matter what the task. The 1500 Series mowers can be equipped with a variety of implements, including snow blowers, blades and brooms, enabling the machines to efficiently tackle winter jobs with ease. SNOWEX HDV V-PLOWS The new SnowEx HDV heavy-duty V-plows are built with groundbreaking new features to set them apart from competitive products. Available in either durable powder-coated mild steel or stainless steel, and blade widths of 8-feet-6-inches or 9-feet-6-inches, the HDV plows boast aggressively flared moldboards that are reinforced by two angled power ribs to stand up to the toughest snow loads. The tall flared wings throw snow at a high and wide angle to provide exceptional snow-throwing action, while an integrated snow catcher keeps snow from spilling over the top. The plows have durable double-acting angle cylinders that push and pull the wings forward and back even under the heaviest snow loads, and can also hold the wings firmly in place for optimal back dragging. A responsive direct lift system delivers incredibly fast reaction time to quickly reposition the plow. The Automatixx power-assisted attachment system provides incredibly quick and easy plow hook-up. TORO SNOWMASTER SNOWBLOWER The new Toro SnowMaster snowblower combines the best features of snow-removing technology into one easy-to-use, timesaving machine. It's faster, easier to maneuver and more efficient, and boasts labor savings of up to 30 percent, when compared to other two-stage snowblowers. The SnowMaster powers through deep, heavy snow with ease thanks to its in-line two-stage auger technology. The steel rotor on the SnowMaster has a helical, or spiral, design that breaks up the snow, collects it to the center and throws the snow up to 40 feet out of the way. The rotor also spins 10 times faster than typical two- stage rotors, and the tall auger opening increases snow capacity by 25 percent to move more than a ton of snow per minute. A larger intake opening also helps to reduce clogging. TURF TEQ POWER BROOM (1305BR) The 18-inch-diameter by 46-inch-wide brush of the Turf Teq Power Broom is ideal for snow removal from 2 to 4 inches deep. Brush pressure, brush speed and pivot angle (left / right) can all be adjusted easily from the operator position. The Turf Teq Power Broom features a fully hydrostatic transmission with forward/reverse and a 13-horsepower Honda engine. The multi-use capability allows the Power Broom to be converted into a snow plow, power edger, power rake or brush cutter for all-season use. WESTERN WIDE-OUT ADJUSTABLE WING SNOWPLOW The Western Wide-Out adjustable wing snowplow maximizes plowing efficiency by allowing operators to hydraulically and independently position each wing to move up to 30 percent more snow with every pass. Get an 8-foot straight blade, a 10-foot straight blade, an 8-foot-10-inch scoop/pusher blade, or a windrowing machine, all at the touch of a button. When in scoop mode, the blade fully angles to carry more snow around corners with minimal spill-off. Other features of this versatile, 4-position, contractor-grade plow include 6 vertical ribs, a dual horizontal power bar, trip blade protection and wing cutting edges.
