DR PRO 26 15.5HP 26" Field and Brush Mower

Our 15.5 HP PRO 26 has nearly 50% more power than the 10.5 HP model, and adds electric-starting, a full pressure oil pump for better mowing on slopes, more brush-busting capacity (including saplings up to 2.5" thick), and Power Steering. Power Steering makes the 15.5 PRO 26 a nimble performer. Each wheel has an independent disc brake that lets you turn on a dime. Plus, if you're mowing across slopes, you can feather the uphill brake to improve the machine's tracking and traction. And, speaking of hills, the 15.5 HP PRO 26 is a great choice for hilly properties because it includes a full-pressure oil pump–so you can mow on slopes of up to 20° and be assured of plenty of good lubrication to all parts of the engine. This engine also gives you the convenience of convenient turn-key electric starting, so you never have to leave the operator's position to start or stop the machine. This model's extra displacement (500cc vs. 344cc for our 10.5 HP model) also provides the extra "oomph" needed to power through saplings up to 2.5" thick!

• 15.5 HP Electric-Start Engine
• 26" pivoting brush deck follows contours of ground
• Power Steering: independent disc brakes on each wheel for super-easy turns
• Oil pump for better performance on hills
• Accepts all optional attachments
• Power Steering is Easy on You! - Our disc brake system provides Power Steering. Each wheel is equipped with its own brake, operated by a hand lever. Just squeeze the brake on one side, and the mower will pivot easily around that wheel. You're in control...without wrestling the machine!
• 15.5 HP Briggs & Stratton Intek Engine - The legendary power, performance and durability of Briggs & Stratton® engines make them the obvious choice for our Walk-Behind Field and Brush Mowers. With the PRO 26 15.5 HP model, you step up to a Briggs Intek Series OHV engine, with full-pressure oil pump (great for positive lubrication even on side slopes), spin-off oil filter, 500cc of displacement, cast-iron cylinder sleeve, and easy, turn-key electric-starting.
• Assembled in the USA - Assembled in the USA using foreign and domestic parts. Ships direct from our Wisconsin factory.
• 26" Pivoting Deck - The 26" deck is wide enough for effective clearing, but is still very maneuverable. Unlike rigid, fixed decks found on some mowers, the DR deck pivots from side to side, allowing it to follow the contours of rough terrain. This feature minimizes scalping and improves traction.
• Superior Mulching - Our decks are enclosed on 3 sides, so that cut material is chopped and re-chopped, reducing grass and brush to a fine mulch. This means less material is left behind in your field, and none of the windrows you get with side-discharging mowers.
• Gear-Driven Transmission: Lock it in and Rip it up! - Unlike hydrostatic drives, the DR's geared transmission lets you lock in your ground speed, leaving your hands free to steer the machine across uneven terrain (instead of fussing with touchy throttle controls as you go). With 3 forward gears, you can choose a fixed pace that's right for you.
• Big, Lugged Tires for Sure Traction - No other brush mower has tires like this. They're the biggest (18" x 6.5" x 8"), they have superior lugged treads that pull the mower through or over just about anything, and they are sealant filled...which means they're highly resistant to puncture. Tough as nails, apparently!
• Custom-Made Blade Spindle - Made of 1.375" thick cast iron with oversized double sealed bearings, the blade spindle is integrated into the deck housing and reinforced for vibration-free performance. Designed to provide years of maintenance-free use (and abuse!).
• Commercial Grade Electric Clutch - Our industry-leading, self-adjusting clutch is designed for easy access and quick swapping out of optional attachments. After 245 hours of testing we only used up 10% of the life of the clutch. There are no cables to stretch or idler pulleys to get out of adjustment.
• Attachments Add 4-Season Versatility - Thanks to our quick-change coupling system, the DR's brush mowing deck can be swapped—in just minutes—with one of our optional PTO attachments: a 42" finish mower, a 30" snow thrower, a wood chipper, or a 42" grader blade. It's like owning 5 machines in one!
• Built to Take a Beating - Field and brush mowing is a bruising business, and underbuilt mowers don't survive long out where the tough stuff grows. We frame our machines with heavy-duty, laser cut steel, and reinforce key stress spots so you get a product that will withstand years of use and abuse.
• Adjustable Handlebars - A comfortable working height is important, especially when traversing rough terrain.
• Ergonomic Controls - Both on the control panel and on the grips, all DR Field and Brush Mowers controls are designed to optimize operator comfort and minimize hand fatigue. Everything you need is right at your fingertips, so there is no walking around the mower to make adjustments.
• Heavy-Duty Powder Coating - Our frames and decks are finished with a tough, durable powder coating that resists scratching and promotes long life.
