This is a short video showing some of the lab testing we performed on the Cheetah deck mounting system. This test fixture is still running today.
We test our mowers in the lab before and during the actual in field testing. This allows us to accumulate millions of cycles in the lab and the real world to identify and correct any potential issues before we ever go into actual production.
Testing like this is time consuming and takes several years to accomplish however the product that our customers buy is nothing short of "Simply the Best".
As of November 2010:
Over 500,000 cycles
500+ pounds of force
5+ Inches of drop
28 cycles per minute
As an update, we ran this several million cycles without failure. It is Scag tough!
