Rear-Discharge Decks
Cutting Widths of 128, 94, or 62 in. (325.1, 238.8, or 157.5 cm)
Benefits
Wide Cut, Easy Transport
The 1600 Turbo TerrainCut™ WAM delivers up to 128 in. (325.1 cm) of cutting width with foldable wing decks that reduce transport width to 84 in. (213.4 cm). Mow over 75 acres in an 8-hour day. Also features a patented impact-absorbing system and baffling for even clipping dispersal and superior cut quality.
Exclusive Air-Intake System for Consistent Cooling
An innovative, exclusive air-intake system draws clean air from the top of the machine instead of the rear. This keeps the radiator cleaner and prevents the engine from overheating.
Powerful Turbocharged Diesel Engine
The 1600 Turbo TerrainCut™ WAM runs on a 60-hp (44.7-kW) turbocharged diesel engine delivering 117.3 lb-ft (159 Nm) of torque at 3000 rpm for strong hill-climbing and mowing performance. It features advanced emissions controls, a 22-gal. (83.3-L) fuel tank for all-day use, and a design focused on operator comfort and efficiency.
