Ariens SUMMIT PRO 572 High-Output 72″ Zero-Turn

The Ariens SUMMIT PRO 572 is built for one purpose: covering serious ground fast. This is the flagship 72″ machine in the Ariens line-up, pairing a powerful Kawasaki FX850V engine with high-spec Parker hydrostats and a heavy welded ENVY-Pro deck that handles continuous, fleet-level use.

Suffolk Mowers recommends the SUMMIT PRO 572 for contractors, councils and estates running large open areas where output per hour makes the difference. It’s quicker, stronger and more comfortable than standard commercial models, making it the go-to choice when productivity drives profit.

What the SUMMIT PRO 572 Is Known For

The SUMMIT PRO 572 is the highest-output mower Ariens builds, designed for teams that measure productivity in hectares per hour rather than “how it feels to use.” With a 72″ ENVY-Pro deck, premium Parker HTG hydros and a Kawasaki FX850V engine, it’s built to replace slow tractor-and-deck setups and push straight into large-area commercial work without hesitation. This is the machine contractors bring out when the brief is simple: finish fast, finish clean, and keep running all day.

Who It’s Designed For

• Contractors managing football pitches, parkland, estates and multi-acre commercial sites.
• Councils maintaining large open spaces where top speed and cut width directly reduce labour hours.
• Fleet managers upgrading from older 60–72″ ZTRs or replacing compact tractor mower combinations.
• Operators spending full days in the seat who need improved comfort at higher travel speeds.
• Grounds teams maintaining areas where the expectation is presentation-level finish at scale.

Strengths That Matter at Scale

• Outstanding area performance: up to 38,960 m²/h makes it Ariens’ quickest-cutting machine, saving hours on large sites.
• Premium hydrostatic drive: Parker HTG hydros offer smooth transitions, fast acceleration and reduced wheel spin when turning at speed.
• ENVY-Pro 4.6mm welded deck: redesigned airflow improves clipping distribution and consistency, even when running at top speed.
• High-performance cold-forged spindles: double ball bearings, sealed housings and strong vibration resistance maximise service life.
• True long-day capability: a 48-litre tank and efficient drivetrain reduce refuelling downtime across big contracts.
• Exceptional operator comfort: the Air-Ride seat isolates vibration and adjusts electrically for body weight and preferred support.
• Stability and strength: the fully welded tubular frame and large 26″ rear tyres keep the machine planted during high-speed mowing.

Useful Accessories for Professional Crews

• Mulching kit: bolts into the ENVY-Pro deck to create separate mulching chambers for finer finish work.
• Striping kit: ideal for sports turf, formal lawns and estate presentation.
• Trailer hitch: for towing utility trailers around large grounds.
• Front and rear Tweels: puncture-proof, long-life wheels that improve comfort and reduce downtime.
• Electric deck lift: lets the operator adjust deck height at the touch of a button.
• Operator-controlled discharge: useful around paths, cars and public areas.
• LED lighting and 12V outlet: improves versatility for early starts, late finishes and on-site charging.

Where It Sits in the Ariens Range

The SUMMIT PRO 572 sits above every other petrol and electric model Ariens makes. Compared to the ZENITH petrol and ZENITH E, it’s larger, faster and built for uninterrupted acreage work at a scale those models aren’t designed to match. Against the ARROW E, it trades tight-area agility for maximum width, speed and output. For fleets, SUMMIT PRO typically becomes the main open-ground machine, supported by ARROW E or ZENITH E units for detail work and noise-sensitive areas.
