Ariens APEX 52 52" Zero-Turn Mower – 23 HP Kawasaki

The Ariens APEX 52 is a 52-inch residential-flagship zero-turn mower for homeowners with two- to five-acre properties or light commercial mowing needs.

The APEX commits to commercial-tier components throughout: a Kawasaki FR691V V-twin and twin Hydro-Gear ZT-3100 commercial-grade transaxles. That hardware is the substance behind the top spot in Ariens' residential lineup, and it's backed by the highest consumer warranty in the residential catalog.
