Ed's enthusiasm and dedication to Wright mowers is what makes Wright mowers stand above the rest. Ed, if you ever go residential, I SOOO want to be part of your team!!
I’m glad I decided to buy a Wright mower. One of the best decisions I’ve made for my business. There’s just this unspoken confidence knowing you have a well built machine cutting customer’s properties. Only have 14 hours on my Wright i36 and so far my only regret is- I should have purchased sooner!
I just purchased my second Wright stander, picking my ZK in few weeks, I got rid of my scag and bobcat mowers. Wright workmanship is unmatched in my opinion
This the stuff that I'm interested in. The engineering team. I not have a Wright .but I want give it a try after see the dedication of there products.. thanks Ed..
Lol, back in the 90's when we just a few people hand building mowers one at a time, the assembly team would play music. The "DJ" kept "Another One Bites The Dust" on the sound track. All these years later, it's the soundtrack in my mind when I see a mower touch the ground for the first time--even if that's not the original meaning of the song. -Ed
I have a 61” zto. Love the mower. 2 things that I noticed. The deck wheels make a lot of noise when at high speed. This is when the deck is in the lowered position to cut. Also the spindle covers seem to have paint that is just flaking off. No other issues other than that.
I'm super impressed with your build quality. I like the fact is that you have a reason for everything you do, in your construction. I'm itching to buy a new mower this year. I only buy commercial mowers for our 2 acre property. My one question is, is a 50 year old man too old for a stand up mower? Your input would be greatly appreciated and thank you for your time.
Ed, you need to have a 90° angle between the back skirt and the deck top. The added steel underneath, I’m guessing was intended to help discharge clippings. It has the opposite effect. I have a ZK 52” & I have an eXmark Lazer ZX 60” that we mow the same properties with and the ZK deck always needs cleaning. Even if grass isn’t damp. I’d really like to see this changed in the future. Also, I really really hate the bolt through spindles on the ZK. I had an I stander with those spindles. Demo’d an X and it had spindles like my eXmark which btw is now 10 years old and still going strong, no spindle or deck issues. I guess what I’m saying is, I give my ZK 4 out of five stars but, if you were to make the two changes I mentioned, definitely five stars.
i have several toro mowers in my fleet at this time but i am to pickup my wright stander zk61 at 11 am in the morning i cant wait to go cut some grass with it i hope its all they say it is
I own 36” intensity & 32” Stander B thru HOLLINGER and Sons Mountville ( Justin ) I own and massage 36 buildings in Coatesvlle Pa (steel town) I use them to cut approx 16 of them thank you
@@StanWilhite - I ordered my ZXT 72 back in May (2022) and it took 4 ½ months for it to arrive at the dealer due to short supply. My price was locked in back in May for $14,999 and that’s exactly how much I paid on 9-20-2022.
The engine is usually the limiting factor. The mower frame can survive about 3 engines. I often say that an engine's life might nominally be 2000hrs but if you really take care of it, I've heard of engines going to 5000hrs. -Ed
If you change oil every 50 hrs, plugs every season, blow out the air filter, keep grass build up off the engine, it should last you 2800-3000 hrs. My KAW did.
Very informative, and definitely impressive! Who knew that there would be that much involved in creating high quality mower decks?

Great video Ed great deck not too light not too heavy 👍 cuts great
It's great having Ed explain why Wright manufacturing, build the way they do. Does anyother owner do this?

Anybody else notice the noise coming from the deck wheels?
I love my aerocore decks
Thanks. -Ed
I would like to see the rear discharge deck. Cemetery mowing. I have got your 52"X and 61"ZK. Love em.
Looks awesome
Thanks Ed love my 36 intensity
Thanks -Ed
Put a small loader attachment to the all models. Could be used for snow removal, dirt and leveling. I want to buy a 32 wright stand.

Never too old:) A Stander will be much easier on your back than a rider. My dad, 70, still cuts his lawn with a Stander!
Mower decks that are 12 11 10 gauge Steel and on down are very strong and will last decades

Why not fully weld the deck? Just curious.
Doesn't that angle on the the front make it more prone to catching on things while backing up?
Mower decks should be industrial riveted and bolted stiffeners. Those welds always fail. Harmonics love to destroy welds. Pretty,but won't last😂
5:09.... y not put the angle that u did on the front then, so it has a chance to hope over?
if it needs to be light and strong...how bout titanium deck? what would be the drawback of that...besides price?
Make more 42 inch mowers please please please
Do y'all make the 36 stander intensity with kohler or vanguard engines?
Kawasaki
This makes me want to buy only from you guy's
Thank you!
@@WrightMowers now we just need a collection system for the x machine.
Is it stamped
I own 36” intensity & 32” Stander B thru HOLLINGER and Sons Mountville ( Justin ) I own and massage 36 buildings in Coatesvlle Pa (steel town) I use them to cut approx 16 of them thank you
Glad to hear! Thanks!\
Too many baffles. I constantly fight with a clogged deck every time I mow. You should make the side discharge with a removable baffle.
What is MSRP on the new 40 hp 72" deck? Thanks
About $14k

Kholer engines are the worst engines out coming from someone hew runs a business.
You can say that again!!!!
You have old kohler new ones are amazing
