Advantages & Features
HD Fusion Welded Frames
The frames on RZ-C models and up are constructed from heavy-duty 3″ x 1.5″ 11-gauge tube steel. Without a doubt, Spartan Mowers are built tough.
Design & Style
Our passion for muscle cars from the late ’60s has fueled the design of Spartan Mowers. Mow in style and turn heads with the stealthy profile of a Spartan.
Adjustable Steering Arms
Adjustable steering arms add comfort for the best fit while mowing. *Standard on the RZ-HD Blackout and up. Available upgrade on the RZ-C, RZ, RZ-Pro, & RZ-HD.
Enhanced XTF Deck System
Our Xtreme Turf Flow (XTF) decks have been redesigned and enhanced to meet the spring, summer, and fall mowing conditions everywhere. This enhanced deck system is available on all models from the Defender up.
LED Light Kits
Mounted directly to the front of the mower, an LED light bar is great for finishing up at dusk and lighting the way to your trailer or shed. Light bars are standard on Spartan’s RZ-HD Blackout, RT-HD, SRT series, KG-XD, and KGZ-XD models. *Available upgrade on RZ-C, RZ, RZ-Pro, and RZ-HD.
U.S.A.
Defender models and up are made with U.S. and global parts at our facility in Batesville, Arkansas. We’re proud of our hardworking team and community.
High Quality Parts
Commercial-grade DNA is a key characteristic of Spartan Mowers, so our models feature the same heavy-duty components across the lineup.
Anti-Slip Mat
All models are equipped with a rubber anti-slip foot mat that helps reduce vibration from the transmission to the operator’s foot.

To help keep your machine cleaner after each use, our belt covers are open in all directions for easy removal of accumulated debris.
