LM551 Fairway Mower

Rear cutting units on the LM551 can be mounted in 2 positions, either standard or 200mm forward to increase contour following performance, eliminating crabbing or uncut grass when mowing on slopes. The mower arm and down pressure spring have all been optimised to apply even and constant down pressure to the cutting units.

The front lift arms have an added spring to keep the cutting units horizontal in the raised position, eliminating the risk of them impacting the ground when turning. The cutting units have been modified to give an industry leading range of motion; not just side to side but also tilting forward and backwards to hug severe undulations.

The LM551 offers superb access to make all servicing and adjustments very straightforward. The seat opens to the side. When open, the rear bonnet fully exposes the engine to provide easy access and room for maintenance. Like the larger fairway mowers in the Baroness range, the rear cutting units swing out for easy accessibility. Adjustment of the cutting cylinders and bedknives are assisted by the ability to turn off the reel motor drive, removing hydraulic resistance, making turning of the cutting cylinder a breeze.

To achieve peak work performance, the LM551 uses the same cross circuit system which was initially introduced on the Baroness LM2400. The cross circuit system works by connecting the hydraulic flow from either front wheel abilities of a parallel circuit with the climbing capabilities of a series circuit.

The LM551 has 2 options of cutting units that can be fitted to better match the machine to your course. The LH52 unit, which has a 127mm diameter cylinder, or the LH62 with a 163mm diameter cylinder. Each cutting unit has the option of 9 or 7 blade cylinders and can be fitted with a groomer, power brush, front roller scraper and newly designed grass boxes.

* Groomer and power brush can be fitted as a combination or individually

Baroness focused on improving comfort and rideability. The LM551 has a large access area, making it easy to get on and off and is fitted with a multiple adjustment suspension seat. The operator controls are positioned for ease of use and accessibility and the steering tilt can be easily adjusted with very little effort.
