60 inches or 72
The two Commanders share an engine, a transaxle and a fuel tank. Each runs the same fuel-injected Kohler. Each holds 12 gallons and reaches 11 mph.
Deck width is the decision. Warhawk lists the 60-inch at 61 1/2 inches wide and 1,565 lb. The 72-inch is 73 1/2 inches wide and 1,600 lb. That's a foot more cut on each pass for 35 more pounds.
So which one? If your trailer and the gates on your route take 73 1/2 inches, the 72 covers more ground. If they don't, the 60 gives you the same engine and drive in a narrower package.
Both ride on 24 x 12 rear tires and 13 x 6.5 fronts built not to go flat.
A seat for the whole day
The Commander's seat is a 3-inch suspension seat with recline and lumbar support. If you're on the machine from the first yard to the last, that's what your back will notice.
This is a crew machine. It suits a landscape outfit cutting big commercial properties. It also suits an owner with a big place, from several acres on up, who wants a wide deck. If that's you, measure the gates you'll pass through on a normal week.
The 12-gallon tank fits those long days, so refueling stops stay few. And with fuel injection, there's no carburetor to gum up over a slow winter.
Cutting height runs 1.5 to 4.5 inches, the same on both decks. Want more horsepower, a heavier transaxle and an air ride seat? Look at the Commander Pro.

Questions people ask
What engine powers the Warhawk Commander?
A Kohler ECV936 EFI rated at 36 hp, on both the 60 and 72-inch decks. It's fuel-injected, and it feeds from a 12-gallon tank. If you'd like more power than that, look at the Commander Pro.
How heavy is a Warhawk Commander with the 72-inch deck?
Warhawk lists it at 1,600 lb. The 60-inch model weighs 1,565 lb. That's a lot of mower on a trailer, so check your trailer's rating and your hitch before you haul it. You'll also want ramps rated for the weight.
How fast does Warhawk's Commander go?
Up to 11 mph forward, through a Hydro-Gear ZT4400 transaxle. That's the same on both decks. When you're crossing big open properties between trims, you'll put that speed to good use.
How much does a Warhawk Commander mower cost?
We keep current pricing on our live inventory page at j5tractors.com, where our Conroe, Navasota, Normangee and Buna stores list the Warhawk mowers they have. Pricing depends on the model and how it's equipped, so check the listing for the 60" and 72". If the one you want isn't listed, call the store.
