DM-1 Bull Rider Sulky
Patent No.6145855, 6488291
What's your sulky made of?
Commercial mowers aren't constructed like homeowner's mowers, so why should sulkies be made that way? In the rugged world
of commercial mowing there's no substitute for "good ol" heavy duty steel. Our superior designs and state of the
art manufacturing using extra heavy duty components assures the longest life possible from your investment.

|
DURABLE. Single piece wheels with centered hubs, which are welded to the wheel on both
sides, have proven much stronger and less troublesome than multi-piece wheels. Tubeless tires can be plugged on hte spot
without dissassembly of the wheel to patch and innertube.
|
SMOOTH OPERATOR. Casters turn on extra heavy duty 7/8" thrust bearings which dramatically
reduce friction and assure years of smooth operation.
|
STRONG. The critical connection point between the foot platform and the connecting arm
is accomplished using a 1&1/8" coupler machined from solid steel.
|
|
FLEXIBLE. Bulit in "Roll Limiter" allows the sulky to follow ground contours during normal
mowing operations, yet prevents the foot platform from rolling all the way over.
|
QUICK DISCONNECT. Disconnecting the foot platform from the connecting arm is
accomplished by the removal of a single lynch pin, and the heavy duty mounting bracket bolts quickly
and easily to mower (inset, top left).

Important notice to all sulky users/purchasers
Many factors effect the operations of a sulky. Terrain conditions such as slope, ground type, ground moisture, etc. are all
factors. Tehr mower being used to pull the sulky is obviously a major factor. Generally, the larger the mower, the less effect
the sulky will have on the mower's operation. Operator weight and operating style also have an effect. Proper mower setup such
as tire pressure, deck pitch/weight balance and drive adjustments become very critical. We recommend a minimum mower size of 48"
(preferably with hydro drive) for the Bull Rider sulky. Although operation is satisfactory on
smaller mowers the factores above should be carefully considered. The Bronco Rider sulky can be used
behind most 36" and larger mowers with excellent results.u It is the user's responsibility to make vertain the sulky suits the mower
on which it is installed. A mounting bracket which attaches to the lawn mower's motor frame connects the sulky to the mower. Most
mowers currently on the market are sufficiently strong in this area; however some mowers, such as the Ferris dual drive require an
optional reinforcement plate to further strengthen this area. It is the user's responsibility to make certain that the optional
reinforcement plate is installed on any mower where strength of the motor frame is in question. TrimmerTrap part no. SP-43.
