Why Walker mowers?

Walker mowers are premium zero-turn mowers, available in New Zealand since the early 1980s. Landowners and contractors seeking professional lawnmowing results, ride-on mowing versatility, and a beautiful cut, choose the best ride on option.

Interchangeable mowing decks and width options; collection and non-collection choice, productive lawncare accessories make a Walker mower perfect for every mowing need.

Walker’s precision steering system with finger-tip steering means the mower goes precisely where you want it to, with little effort. Zero-turn manoeuvrability comes standard, so you turn on the spot. Designed with durable chassis and powerful engines to ensure a Walker mower will last many years and handle the rigours of commercial lawn mowing. A low centre of gravity and large rear wheels result in a beautiful finish on all angles of terrain.

The Walker Advantage

Productive

Completely original by design, we like to say that Walker mowers are, “Different for the Right Reasons”. Learn about the seven reasons why a Walker mower is one of the most productive mowers on the market: agile, compact, balance, reach, steering, trimming, and view.

Beautiful Cut

Since the ’80s, the Walker has been providing an economical way to cut lawns beautifully. By design and unique features, the out-front Walker deck gives operators results that are different.

Versatility

Interchangeable mowing decks and width options; collection and non-collection choice, and a variety of attachments and accessories make a Walker the perfect zero-turn mower for every mowing need.

Not just assembled – engineered

Every detail of the Walker Mower has been proven in the field; every design element has been tested and refined. As a result, each mower is highly reliable, tuned to perfection and manufactured to give top mowing performance to the owner.

Greater than the sum of its parts

• Enhanced operator comfort, with large contour molded seat, “natural” control placement and full view of the mowing area.
• Compact overall size permits mowing and trimming in tight areas, eliminating extra trimming.
• Quick and agile manoeuvring with intuitive dual hydrostatic steering.
• Unobstructed trimming and smooth cut from a good operator view over the front-mounted mowing deck and tractor unit rear wheels.
• The Walker “floating” decks follows the ground contours with a flexible deck suspension and spring counter-weighting for a fine finish.

• A range of interchangeable mower decks for a variety of mowing situations; 36"– 74" size and dedicated grass collection, side discharge or mulching operation options.

You’ll never regret buying a Walker R

• Placing the mower deck in front of the machine costs more to manufacture but has big benefits. It reduces time to maintain the property by doing more of the trimming – corners, edges, under bushes and fences.
• The mower deck gives a give a better finish as it follows the ground contours – not hung from the machine.
• Fitted with Stevens’ unique Mach II mulching blade system makes it appear as though the grass has been collected. Your property will look more beautiful with less work. The blade system also outperforms in long and wet grass, and will also make light work of hedge trimmings, etc.
• Walker R precise handling using fingertip control is the most effortless to operate and allows precise trimming.
• The out-front deck can be tilted up 90° for cleaning and maintenance, making life easier.
• Walker R is designed and built as a long-life serviceable machine that outlasts and retains its value. Dare to compare.
• Safer on hills and slopes by design, its low seating position and centre of gravity means you can safely go where you would be in danger on other machines. Walker R driving and braking wheel position means going down a steep hill you have maximum control. The lower centre of gravity means you won’t tip over.
• The Model R is the quietest mower in the Walker range.
• Having an amazing looking property lifts the value of one of their most expensive assets – first impressions count!

You’ll never regret buying quality, and you’ll never regret having a more beautiful-looking property that takes less time and effort to achieve.

No other mower operates this easily

Equipped with operator-friendly fingertip steering and with Forward Speed Control (FSC), the Walker Mower goes precisely where you want it to go with little effort.

From the drive position, the Forward Speed Control (FSC) uses a friction lock to work as a cruise control, allowing the operator to control the mower by simply applying pulling pressure to the steering levers.

To stop, pull the FSC back to the neutral /park position.

Forward/reverse, zero radius turns, and braking are accomplished by lightly pulling the steering levers, while Forward Speed Control adjusts and holds forward speed, functioning as a “cruise control.”

The operator relaxes since it isn’t necessary to hold the steering levers forward when cruising. Steering wheels, gear shifts, and foot pedals are all eliminated, for nearly effortless handling.
