Our PRO 26, equipped with a 10.5 HP Briggs and Stratton OHV engine, is a full-featured Field and Brush Mower that accepts all of our optional attachments. But it's first and foremost, a terrific mower that will make short work of thick field grass and woody materials up to two inches in diameter.

This machine has the exact same frame, wheels, drive train, clutch, handlebars, controls, and spindle as our larger walk-behinds. And just like the others, it accepts optional attachments and has a pivoting mower deck–one of our DR® "secrets" to great maneuverability and traction. This model's only concession to convenience is its pull-start (vs. electric-start engine). Other than that, it will do the job, and do it well–at a great price.

Features

10.5 HP Briggs & Stratton PowerBuilt Engine
The legendary power, performance and durability of Briggs & Stratton® engines make them the obvious choice for our Walk-Behind Field and Brush Mowers. The PRO 26 10.5 HP model uses a durable 344 cc Overhead Valve PowerBuilt Series manual-starting Briggs engine with cast-iron cylinder sleeve.

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.

Assembled in the USA
Assembled in the USA using foreign and domestic parts. Ships direct from our Wisconsin factory.

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.
