    Default ZTR Mower with swing back blades

    ZTR Mower with swing back blades. Who makes them? My 42 inch cub cadet has swing backs. Just wondering what other brands have swing back blades.
    Cheers

    The Cox Cruiser has two discs with swing back blades. The Graden also has swing backs.

    Im surprised your cub cadet has swing backs, did you buy it new like this?

    As a general rule only aussie brand mowers come with swing backs as I believe the yanks can only have bar blades on there mowers due to safety regulations.

    Gradens indeed do have swing backs
    I dont break things ...I just use them beyond their operational limitations

    Gradens are a champion machine, do a phenomenal cut. I've been to their factory.

    Support the Aussie manufacturing industry..... well what's left

    hear hear. Never owned a graden but maybe one day. It's been a shocking year for manufacturing and the flow on will trickle down for years and years to come.

    So why don't the yanks have swing back blades, thought they would be safer as they would have more give in them. Better for mowing rocks with so to speak.
