Product Description
If you have a large area of grass to mow, you need a Swisher Finish Cut Mower! Backed by the power of 60+ years of design experience, the Swisher 60″ 14.5 HP Finish Cut Mower is designed to dramatically reduce mowing time. The Swisher Finish Cut Mower attaches to ATV’s, lawn tractors, and any utility vehicles to cut large lawns and meadows fast. Three G6 commercial mulching blades are powered by a 14.5 HP Briggs & Stratton engine for a finish-cut quality, each and every mowing. A 60″ side-discharge cutting deck cuts wide swaths and spreads the grass out to avoid choking. The true floating deck reduces scalping for professional mowing results, even on tricky terrain. Cutting-height adjustment handles are easy to control for just the right cut. This Swisher is equipped with a handy 12-volt key starter, so firing up the mower is a snap, rather than a big workout. A universal articulating hitch attaches to any hitch system and lets the mower maneuver easily behind whatever is pulling it. The 2.5 gallon fuel tank means less downtime and more productivity for getting the job done fast and getting back to your weekend. The Finish Cut Mower is the ultimate time saver! Not for sale in California. Made in the USA of US and global parts.

The mower is very heavy. I pull it behind an argo 8X8 and it push me down hills. It does travel good and mows great. It starts very easily. It would be a great mower on level ground but on hilly terain it is a load. I would probly buy the smaller one next time.

I pull this behind a 42″ riding mower and with the offset, I cut a width of about 8 feet. I can cut about 2 acres in a little over an hour and then disconnect the pull behind and finish cutting around trees with the 42″ mower which can make shorter turns without the pull behind.

Solid mower and pulls great behind my ATV. Takes a few passes to cut down tall grass but if you follow the correct suggested speed it does not bog down. Heavy duty product.

I mowed two acres with it without problem for the first time. I guess I didn’t realize how big this thing is. It is massive and very heavy. Took about an hour to set up everything. Be careful; I almost forgot to grease the wheel hubs. Four grease ports must be greased before use and occasionally after that. They take quite a few pumps of grease as well. The machine came with an operational level of oil and no gasoline. Seems very well built, and I did about two acres in a couple of hours. My pasture area is somewhat uneven, and I had to take it a bit slower than I would on leveled ground.

An excellent design, the four wheels and the suspended mowing deck make for a smoother travel and better cut. The improved yoke design, how it attaches to the mower, is also a big improvement.

The bad-and it’s not so bad
I give this mower a 4 for a simple reason that you need to purchase a battery before you can get it running. So if any of you are buying this pick up a U1 battery. That being said it was also missing a lock nut that is used with the battery strap. Hence my other critique of this product. The battery strap is horrible. The threads that you tighten the battery strap down on aren’t mounted. They just spin loosely and there is no locking them in place. So you need to put a nut on first that fits the threads then put the strap on then tighten that down with the lock nut. If you don’t do this you pretty much can’t tighten the battery strap on.
The good news
The good news is this mower is very good. I got it to mow about 2+acres of pretty much uneven non-flat ground. I set the depth at 2 1/2″ and it cuts beautifully. It is a 3 bladed deck and the 4 wheels keep it from getting hung up or letting the deck hit anything it shouldn’t. The electric start is well worth the extra money as well. As soon as I got the battery on and turned the key it started up instantly. The blades engaged perfectly as well.
Suggestions
Get a U1 battery while you are waiting for the mower. Get two 5 gallon gas cans because the tank holds nearly 3 gallons. If you are going to tow behind and ATV don’t have a ball installed and the tow bar will hook up a lot lower than the deck so you might want to get some type of extension to make the hook up to the ATV higher so you don’t bend the bar of the mower deck.
