Land Pride welcomes you to the growing family of new 
product owners. This Grooming Mower has been 
designed with care and built by skilled workers using 
quality materials. Proper assembly, maintenance, and 
safe operating practices will help you get years of 
satisfactory use from this machine. 

Application

Land Pride’s 25 Series Rear Discharge Grooming Mower 
is an excellent choice for homeowners, campuses, parks, 
and golf courses. They are adapted for category 1 three-
point hitch mounting on tractors in the 15 to 60 hp range. 
They are also Quick Hitch adaptable. The tapered rear 
design eliminates the need for rear safety chains and 
greatly reduces the tendency to deposit unsightly clumps 
of damp grass. When weather conditions allow for 
regular and frequent mowing intervals the rear discharge 
feature allows for excellent cutting quality and a very well 
groomed finish. Clippings are evenly discharged close 
behind the mower avoiding streets, sidewalks, and 
landscaping. The FDR25 Series also features a floating 
3-Point system to allow for excellent contour following 
capabilities over hilly and uneven terrain.
