Mowtech Phoenix 42″ Ride-On Zero Turn Mower
The Mowtech Phoenix 42″ Ride-On Mower is designed for Australian lawn contractors and commercial operators who want greater cutting coverage without sacrificing manoeuvrability or reliability. Sitting perfectly between compact access and high productivity, the Phoenix 42″ delivers commercial performance, ride-on comfort, and excellent value.
Powered by a Zongshen V-Twin commercial engine and fitted with dual Hydro-Gear ZT2800 transmissions with external filters and built-in charge pumps, the Phoenix 42″ provides smooth, responsive zero-turn control and long-term durability under demanding workloads. This is a drivetrain built to handle real contractor use, not light domestic mowing.
The 42″ fabricated steel cutting deck increases productivity per pass while maintaining a clean, consistent finish. Combined with commercial spindles, reliable electric blade engagement, and a balanced chassis, the Phoenix 42″ is ideal for contractors mowing larger residential properties, body corporates, schools, and commercial sites.
If you’re looking for a commercial ride-on mower that offers more width, more efficiency, and proven components — the Phoenix 42″ is a smart, scalable upgrade.
Why the Mowtech Phoenix 42″ Is the Best Value Commercial Ride-On Mower
Built for Contractors. Engineered to Perform.
The Phoenix 42″ is designed around the needs of professional operators. From the commercial engine to the serviceable Hydro-Gear transmissions, every component is selected to reduce downtime and maximise productivity.
Compact Size, Commercial Strength
Despite its wider 42″ deck, the Phoenix remains compact and agile. This makes it suitable for properties where access still matters, while delivering noticeably faster mowing times than smaller decks.
Commercial Drivetrain With Hydro-Gear ZT2800
Fitted with dual Hydro-Gear ZT2800 transmissions, including external filters and charge pumps, the Phoenix 42″ delivers smooth control, improved cooling, and extended service life — a key upgrade over entry-level ride-ons.
Fabricated Deck for Clean, Reliable Cutting
The 42″ fabricated steel deck is built for durability and clean cut quality. Its wider cutting path improves efficiency without compromising finish, even in thicker grass conditions.
Ride-On Comfort With Zero Turn Control
The ride-on configuration provides operator comfort over long days, while zero-turn steering allows precise control around obstacles, garden edges, and tight turns.
Delivered Australia-Wide
The Phoenix 42″ is available for Australia-wide delivery, with finance options available to help contractors get working sooner.
