The MR55KEI features a 27 HP Kohler Confidant Twin EFI (fuel-injected) engine ($5,995) with enhanced fuel efficiency, easier starting in all weather conditions, and a wider cutting height range (2"-8" vs 1.5"-5").

The Kunz Engineering AcrEase series is designed for tough mowing jobs on fields, pastures, trails, and overgrown acreage. It can cut through thick grass, dense weeds, brush, and small saplings up to 2 inches in diameter. The 4-tire design provides excellent stability and traction on rough, uneven, or sloped terrain. Optional accessories like the Floatation Kit enhance stability on soft ground near ponds, while the Wetlands Kit improves traction in marshy areas (not for standing water deeper than 2-3 inches).

Optional accessories include: Floatation Kit (adds additional front and rear tires for enhanced stability on uneven terrain and soft ground), Wetlands Kit (adds tire sets and mounting brackets for improved traction in marshy or wet areas), Electric Lift Kit (includes actuator, wiring, and remote for effortless height adjustment from your tow vehicle), and Flat-Proof Urethane Tires (maintenance-free foam tires that eliminate flats for dependable performance on any terrain).

The mower arrives partially assembled and requires some setup upon delivery. You'll need to provide your own battery for the electric start system (battery not included). Regular maintenance includes checking and changing engine oil, cleaning or replacing air filters, sharpening or replacing twin blades as needed, inspecting and tensioning the V-belt drive system, and keeping the 10-gauge steel deck clean. The fuel-injected MR55KEI model reduces maintenance compared to carbureted models. Always refer to the owner's manual for specific maintenance schedules.

The AcrEase series is designed to be towed behind ATVs, UTVs, or small tractors. The mowers offer versatile tow configurations—you can pull them directly behind your vehicle or fully offset to either side for maximum maneuverability. This flexibility allows you to reach tight spaces, mow along edges, and navigate around obstacles more easily. The 580 lb weight should be considered when matching with your tow vehicle to ensure adequate towing capacity for safe operation.

Yes, the entire AcrEase series is specifically designed for commercial applications and serious landowners. All models feature commercial-grade twin cylinder engines with 3-year commercial engine warranties, heavy-duty 10-gauge steel deck construction with dual ¼" reinforced plates, and electric clutch blade engagement systems built for durability. Each mower carries a 1-year commercial mower warranty, and the robust construction is engineered to withstand the demands of professional use on large properties, farms, and land management operations.

All Kunz Engineering AcrEase models include a 1-year commercial warranty on the mower and a 3-year commercial warranty on the engine. This comprehensive coverage protects your investment for professional and heavy-duty use. Extended protection plans are available for purchase (2 years for $319.99 or 3 years for $419.99) to extend coverage beyond the manufacturer's warranty. The mower must be purchased from an authorized Kunz Engineering dealer to maintain valid warranty coverage.

The AcrEase series features large fuel tanks ranging from 3 to 3.25 gallons, providing up to 3.5 hours of continuous runtime under typical mowing conditions. Actual runtime may vary based on engine load, terrain difficulty, vegetation density, and operating conditions. The fuel-injected MR55KEI model offers improved fuel efficiency compared to the carbureted MR55BE and MR55KE models, helping maximize mowing time between refueling stops and enabling you to complete larger jobs without interruption.
