Exmark Viking hydro, none floating that I'm aware of.

I think Encore still does also.

Yes and Yes.

You just have to change caster spacers to adj. cut height.

What about at the back L.G.F.? I had a belt drive 32 Metro and the rear height adj. was a pain in the a$$ ,I realize the hydro should be easier in the back .thanks

You don't change the back. It should come in the top or heighest mounting holes.

You adjust the rake and blade height on thease when you adj. the cut height.


Set it so you can mow at 3.5" blades and caster spacers, then simply adj. the upper and lower caster spacers to go down in height. Always set it for the max height you will be mowing at, that way when you go lower it stays simple. ie; 3/8" for each caster spacer.

Do you know what the suggested retail is on this model?

Will it pull a sulky-velke as well as the larger walk behinds?

I would presume it is going to be the same or a little less than a Viking 36".

Suggested list for the Viking 36" I think is $3,400

The toro 32 is easy to ajust the deck ride on the frame with 2 pins so you might say it is semi floating. You just move the two pins to ajust

Big James, I agree completely with LGF. One thing I will add, you could also add a flex deck to it and get 50" when needed. Two mowers in one unit.

Yes, it will also pull a sulky just fine.

He could but from what he wrote he had a 32" belt drive already.

And he was looking for a hydro.

BTW dont you mean 4 pins?

Hoss; how could I forget the Flex-Deck?
