Features
Caster wheels follow ground contours and prevent scalping


By having four caster wheels, the GM40E Series Grooming Mower follows ground contours and prevents scalping. Heavy tubular caster wheel arms are bolted to rail supports for long life.
Floating hitch for level cutting


The floating top link on the GM40E Series keeps the deck tracking over ground contours for a level and smooth cut.
High blade-tip speed


High blade-tip speed and precise blade overlap work together to ensure exceptional strength, performance, and a quality cut.
Rugged gearbox


The GM40E Series Grooming Mowers come with a 35 hp rated rugged gearbox.
Choose from various cutting blades


To meet specific mowing needs, choose from two blade types:
- Low lift
- High lift (standard)
Deck design increase productivity


The deep deck design allows greater cutting volume and a cleaner cut. Offset Gauge Wheels are reducing grass tracks

Anti-scalping front roller conversion kits for GM40E Series Grooming Mowers
An anti-scalping front roller kit can be ordered as an attachment for field conversion for FM and GM Series Grooming Mowers when not standard equipment. The roller is attached to the front of the cutting deck to help reduce scalping.
Each kit contains one roller.
