Excel Industries expands BigDog Mowers product line
R Power BarExcel Industries, Inc., announced at GIE+EXPO 2011 the expansion of its BigDog Mowers product line by introducing four products, including the R Power Bar.
“I am very excited about the new BigDog models coming into production, especially the high-performing R Diablo and X Diablo,” said Adam Mullet, director of marketing. “We are also introducing a new innovative alternative to twin-lever steering. Power Bar Steering offers users easier, more precise control over the mower and a solid handle to hold on to. We have found the Power Bar Steering is particularly attractive to first-time buyers and to those who require one-hand operation.”
The new product offerings were as follows:
A Series: The new A Series brings a high-end residential unit to the BigDog product line. With welded steel deck sizes starting at 36 inches, the BigDog A will fit through gates and other tight spaces in even the smallest of yards. Featuring dependable Kawasaki engines, this machine is for discriminating homeowners or the commercial cutters needing to add a more versatile mower to their fleet.
R Power Bar: The R Power Bar bridges the gap between traditional steering-wheeled mowers and twin-lever machines. This easy-to-use steering system allows users of any skill level to feel comfortable operating a zero-turn mower.
R Diablo: The R Diablo features a commercial-grade Kawasaki engine with external air cleaner, commercial-duty ZT 3400 transmissions and 22-inch tires, making this machine one of the toughest compact mowers on the market. This mower is for the homeowner who wants to be top dog on the block or the commercial cutter wanting a tough, dependable mower.
X Diablo: The X Diablo is for the commercial cutter who wants the biggest, toughest, fastest BigDog on the market. This machine boasts a larger, heavy-duty frame and a dependable Kawasaki engine that powers the mower to 14 mph.
“BigDog Mowers now offers a complete line of zero-turn mowers from the compact C Series to the top-of-the-line, 14-mph X Diablo,” added Mullet. “All BigDog mowers offer an extreme value, making this product line very competitive in the marketplace.”
