Dixie Chopper introduces new stand-on mower at 2024 Equip Expo
Dixie Chopper released its new Silver Eagle Stand-on zero-turn mower at the recent 2024 Equip Expo in Louisville.
The Silver Eagle Stand-on is a brand-new stand-on series designed for the commercial contractor.
The new model from the Fillmore-based makers of the “World’s Fastest Lawn Mower” comes equipped with a 27-horsepower Kawasaki FX engine and a robust pump and wheel motor drive system. The PK pumps from Hydro-Gear float with the engine and deck to ensure belt tension stays constant.
“We are very excited to launch the long-awaited Silver Eagle Stand-on to our dealers and customers,” Adam Smith, national sales manager of Dixie Chopper, said. “Dixie Chopper has needed a stand-on mower in our product line for years. This new model will unlock new opportunities to expand our dealer network and customer base.”
The Silver Eagle Stand-on features 48-inch, 54-inch and 60-inch deck options with a deep shell designed to handle more volume while ensuring excellent cut quality and discharge performance.
The Peer deck spindles are maintenance-free and constructed with a ductile-iron housing for maximum strength and longevity.
Operator comfort is found throughout the design of the machine with a plush bolstered pad, cushioned operator platform and adjustable speed controls for operator preference.
“We are committed to listening to our customers,” Dixie Chopper President Lisa Tubbs said. “Our dealers have stressed to our team the importance of introducing a stand-on into our product line. The feedback from our dealers greatly influenced the design and features of this new model.”
The Silver Eagle Stand-on will begin shipping to dealers in 2025.
Dixie Chopper mowers were conceived by founder Art Evans with the first models built in an old dairy barn on his parents’ property northeast of Fillmore in April 1980.
