Why stand up to mow
On a stand-on, you're on your feet on an adjustable rubber suspension riding platform. Stepping off to move a hose or pick up a branch takes a second. That's handy on a lot with a lot of trimming and stops. It's handy on your own place, too.
The 36 is the narrow one. With the chute up, it's 38.5 inches wide, and 50.5 with the chute down. The 61 runs 63.5 inches chute up and 75.5 chute down. Measure your narrowest gate and match the deck to it. Front tires are 13x6.5-6 smooth on all four.
Our shops are busiest in spring, when the grass turns green and mowers come in with dead batteries and worn belts. If you run a Revolt hard, have the blades and belts checked before then.

It's an adjustable rubber suspension riding platform. You stand on it instead of sitting in a seat, and you can adjust it to suit you. That's on all four deck sizes, from the 36 up to the 61, so you'll get the same ride whichever you pick.
