The DR® PRO 44T is a tow-behind Field and Brush Mower designed to be pulled by an ATV, UTV, or tractor. It combines a 17.5 HP Briggs & Stratton® EX Series engine with a 44-inch cutting deck, allowing the operator to mow from the seat of the towing vehicle.

The PRO 44T is designed to cut thick field grass and saplings up to 3 inches in diameter. Its floating deck, pivoting blades, remote blade control, and offset-capable tow bar provide features for mowing uneven and overgrown areas.

17.5 HP Engine and Remote Control

The PRO 44T is powered by a 17.5 HP Briggs & Stratton® EX Series engine. The engine includes a debris management system designed to help protect the engine from material generated during mowing.

A cabled remote control allows the operator to control blade engagement and disengagement from the driver’s seat of the towing vehicle. The manufacturer also describes the remote control as providing engine start/stop functionality from the towing vehicle.

44-Inch Mulching Deck

The 44-inch mowing deck provides a wide cutting path for clearing overgrown areas. The deck is enclosed on three sides so that cut material is chopped and re-chopped beneath the deck.

The mower is designed to process thick field grass and saplings up to 3 inches in diameter.

Floating Deck

The deck is suspended from the mower frame, allowing it to move over high points and uneven terrain. This floating design helps minimize scalping and helps protect the drivetrain when encountering changes in ground elevation.

Pivoting Blades

The cutting blades are designed to pivot when they encounter an immovable object. This feature is intended to help protect the blade, spindle, and engine from impact forces.

No-Tools Height Adjustment

Mowing height can be adjusted from 4 inches to 7.5 inches using two hand cranks. The adjustment system does not require tools.

Mowing Outside the Wheelbase

The cutting blade extends beyond the mower’s wheels, allowing the PRO 44T to mow closer to fences, walls, hedgerows, and other obstacles without the wheels interfering with the cutting path.

Chain Debris Guard

A chain debris guard helps contain material generated during mowing and is designed to reduce material from being thrown forward.

Heavy-Duty Brush Bar

The 2.75-inch-thick steel frame functions as a brush bar at the front of the mower. It helps push over saplings, brambles, and other vegetation before the material reaches the mowing deck.

Outrigger Tow Bar

The two-piece tow bar allows the mowing deck to be offset to the left or right of the towing vehicle. It can also be configured to mow directly behind the tow vehicle.

Mowing Productivity

The manufacturer states that the PRO 44T can mow up to 1.5 acres per hour when towed by an ATV. Actual mowing rates vary according to vegetation density, terrain, and operating conditions.

Assembled in the USA

According to the manufacturer, the PRO 44T is assembled in the USA using foreign and domestic parts. The original manufacturer information states that the product ships directly from the manufacturer’s Wisconsin factory.
