Janitorial services

Janitor services and maintenance of larger residential complexes

The constantly changing activities of a janitor service are part of daily routine. Regular lawn mowing is often perceived as a chore and is particularly time-consuming. With a zero-turn lawn mower, you will be done faster. You can save up to 40% time compared to a conventional lawn tractor.

With its high mowing speed and area coverage, you will have more time for other things. Driving a zero-turn mower is also a pleasure. Mowing the lawn with an Ariens Zero-Turn feels less like work.

The Ariens best-selling zero-turn mower is the IKON model. The Ariens IKON is made for private gardens of all sizes or even semi-professional applications. For smaller janitor services, it is the ideal machine for mowing green spaces quickly and maneuverably. There is no need to dispose of clippings, as the cuttings are finely mulched or ejected and distributed over a large area. Larger residential complexes and their green surroundings are also places where the Ariens IKON can be used. A noticeable time saving when mowing faster without clippings frees up time for other activities around the house.

Why buying a bigger machine than the Ariens IKON?

It doesn’t have to be bigger. The IKON meets the requirements of janitor services and smaller lawn care service providers. Its tubular steel frame, solid cutting deck and high-quality Kawasaki® engines are up to the task in semi-professional applications. The compact 107 cm and the large 132 cm (52″) cutting deck with three blades is suspended at four points and delivers a consistently good cutting pattern. Large rear tires provide traction and suspension comfort and make it easy to drive over edges and curbs. A comfort seat with high backrest and armrests as standard is on board. The Hydro-Gear® wheel motors are maintenance-free.

Semi-Pro

Are you a service provider, janitorial service or do you have to regularly maintain larger areas? Then a semi-professional machine offers you the performance and durability to reliably complete your mowing work.

Petrol

Our mowers are equipped with high-quality Kawasaki® or Ariens engines. They deliver above-average performance and reliability.

Electric

State-of-the-art battery technology now enables the same performance and range as petrol models.

Optional mulching kit

When using a suitable mulching kit in your mower, the side discharge is no longer necessary. The clippings are finely shredded and evenly distributed to the rear of the lawn. Any fertilizer applied remains on the surface and the fine grass particles disappear almost invisibly into the lawn.

Ride-On (sitting)

Ariens ride-on mowers offer a high level of comfort. We use high-quality seats from the entry-level model upwards. Ample legroom and ergonomic controls are standard.

Stand-on (standing)

Mowing while standing is currently “in”. The advantages are the operator's overview of the entire mowing deck and the enormous maneuverability of these compact machines. Users with back problems benefit from the ergonomic working position. Daily transportation and storage are considerably easier. Getting on and off is a matter of seconds. Also ideal for narrow passages and garden gates.

Rear discharge

With the APEX and ZENITH models, you have the choice between side discharge and rear discharge mower decks. A rear discharge mower deck is closed at the side and ejects the clippings to the rear. The advantage is that no clippings are thrown onto paths or beds and, compared to a mulching kit, taller grass can also be mowed well. Rear discharge Mower decks are often used in the municipal sector.

Side discharge

With the APEX and ZENITH models, you have the choice between side discharge and rear discharge mower decks. A side discharge mower deck ejects the clippings via a side opening and a deflector. The powerful airflow then distributes it over a large area. An optional mulching kit can be installed in side discharge mower decks. When a mulching kit is used, the clippings are finely shredded and ejected to the rear. The side discharge and deflector are then closed or removed.

Flat terrain

All Ariens mowers are suitable for flat lawns. Select your cutting width according to the size of your area and any limiting narrow areas.

Undulating terrain

Ariens mowers cope well with undulating terrain. For undulating terrain, choose narrower cutting decks for a more uniform cutting pattern.

Hilly terrain

It is best to choose a machine with wide wheels. Do not exceed the specified safety limit of 15° incline for ride-on mowers and 20° for stand-on mowers. On undulating terrain, choose narrower cutting decks for a more uniform cutting pattern. The ZENITH model has a roll-over protection as standard. It can be retrofitted to the APEX.

Medium-sized areas

Use mowing widths of 107 cm and 122 cm on medium to large lawns.

Large areas

Mowing decks 132 cm and 152 cm wide are used effectively on large areas.
