Land Pride welcomes you to the growing family of new
product owners.

This Grooming Mower has been designed with care and
built by skilled workers using quality materials. Proper
assembly, maintenance and safe operating practices will
help you get years of satisfactory use from the machine.

Application

The Land Pride FDR3590 Rear Discharge Grooming
Mowers are designed and built to provide high
productivity and excellent cutting quality on well-
maintained lawn and turf surfaces. These mowers are
adapted for category 1 attachment and operation on 25-
60hp utility tractors. The 90" rear discharge cutting decks
and highly durable construction make them well suited to
meet the mowing needs of large estate owners, golf
course, theme parks, municipalities, ranchers, horse
breeders, and commercial mowing and landscape
operations. The rear discharge cutting deck will provide a
superb quality of cut and superior clipping distribution
when grass is cut on a frequent basis and ground
conditions are not wet.

See “Section 5: Specifications & Capacities” on page
22 and “Section 6: Features and Benefits” on page 23
