Ariens SUMMIT PRO 572 72″ Zero-Turn Mower

The Ultimate Performer in Zero-Turn Mowing

For the largest and most demanding tasks, the Ariens SUMMIT PRO 572 stands as the undisputed leader in commercial zero-turn mowing. Equipped with an expansive 72-inch cutting deck, it achieves a peak area performance of up to 38,960 m² per hour, completely redefining productivity. This powerhouse is specifically engineered for professional users such as parks departments, large estates managers, and grounds maintenance contractors who manage wide-open terrains where performance per hour is the most critical metric.

The SUMMIT PRO 572 offers more than just sheer size; it incorporates every Ariens innovation for exceptional durability, operator comfort, and ease of use. Featuring heavy-duty components, intuitive controls, and a design focused entirely on the operator, it has become a firm favourite among professionals who demand nothing but the very best from their machinery.

Built for Professional Use

At its heart is the powerful and reliable premium Kawasaki FX 850V engine, which delivers a uniform torque curve and features a double filter system for performance and durability at the highest level. This is paired with high-quality Parker® HTG hydrostats, renowned for their smooth response when changing direction and their impressive top speed of over 13 mph. The large rear wheels reduce wheel spin during turns, and extra-long oil change intervals minimise inconvenient workshop visits during the peak season.

The new Ariens ENVY-Pro mower deck has been completely redesigned for superior grass distribution and cut quality. It is welded from robust 4.6 mm thick sheet steel, ensuring it can withstand years of rigorous professional use. Complementing the deck are new high-performance blade spindles made of cold-forged aluminium, which are resistant to vibration, dissipate heat effectively, and are sealed to prevent corrosion from moisture and dirt.

Operator Comfort as a Priority

Ariens understands that long working days require superior comfort. The SUMMIT PRO 572 is fitted with a premium Air-Ride comfort seat. At the press of a switch, the operator can adjust the air suspension to their exact requirements. Special vibration isolators shield the entire seat from vertical shocks, while the extra-high backrest, adjustable armrests, thick padding, and integrated lumbar support provide maximum seating comfort. Further enhancing the ride are the large, 360° swivelling front wheels, which are semi-pneumatic (filled with rubber foam) to completely rule out flat tyres and pressure loss.

Practical Features for a Demanding Job

A host of practical features make the SUMMIT PRO 572 a truly professional tool. The extra-large 48-litre fuel tank accommodates long working days, reducing downtime for refuelling. Cutting height is easily adjusted via a rotary wheel, with 18 positions from 2.5 cm to 14 cm, while a spring-loaded foot pedal makes lifting the heavy-duty deck effortless. The entire machine is built upon a fully welded tubular frame, with large square tubes seamlessly joined to create a solid, durable chassis that inspires confidence.
