NEW CUTTING SYSTEM FROM FERRIS OFFERS UNPARALLELED CUTTING QUALITY

Munnsville, NY (October 29, 2009) – The innovative iCD™ Cutting System found on select Ferris commercial mowers allows better airflow discharge and a superior quality of cut.  The slope nose of the deck forces the blades of grass forward and allows them a longer period of time to rise in the chamber before the blades make contact. 

 

Features of the iCD™ Cutting System include:
• Newly designed 0.25” thick Marbain steel blades generate greater lift for a precision cut.
• The slope nose has a reinforced leading edge which provides protection where the deck needs it most and reduces front-end blowout.
• Models feature industry exclusive Hercules® cast-iron and cast-aluminum greaseable spindles.
• Baffle chamber design increases airflow and reduces clumping.
• Extra wide chute opening for greater dispersal of grass.
• Center point is offset to allow for supreme cutting and excellent discharge.
• Striping kit is standard on all iCD™ decks.

“Many customers have told us that our zero-turns with suspension technology are the smoothest riding in the industry,” says Bill Shea, vice president of sales & marketing for the Briggs and Stratton Yard Power Products Group. “And equally with the addition of the iCD™ Cutting System our mowers possess the ultimate in cut quality.”

The new iCD™ Cutting System offers unparalleled cut quality and complements the innovation of the Ferris product lineup.  For more information on which Ferris models it can be found, visit www.ferrisindustries.com.
