Ride Tamer Makes For Smoother Mowing HAY & FORAGE HARVESTING Mowers 38 The May Wes Ride Tamer® offers a smoother lawn mower ride with less fatigue for the rider This mower suspension kit is easy to install compatible with various models and provides shock absorption to help extend the lifespan of your mower “The original Ride Tamer was invented by John Nance of Davaus LLC at the request of landscaping neighbors who kept breaking the frames on their zero-turn mowers ” says Nancy Lauseng May Wes Manufacturing marketing manager “They asked John to come up with a solution after they couldn’t find anything else on the market Fast forward a few years and the result from the Davaus team is a patented innovative cast steel suspension solution with true dampening properties allowing travel in both the up and down directions in a robust cast steel design ready for daily use ” Today the Ride Tamer aims to remove tiny vibrations and smooth out the big ones “Zero-turn mowers are notoriously bouncy ” says Lauseng “The Ride Tamer acts as a suspension system and improves the ride by about 47 percent by minimizing bucking and bouncing on uneven terrain This reduces operator fatigue and stress on the mower frame It also improves cut quality by keeping the deck at a consistent height The Ride Tamer’s patented trailing arm system provides over 5 in of vertical travel in both directions ” The Ride Tamer is priced at $649 and is custom manufactured per mower make and model after ordering Once the team knows your make and model they’ll include the appropriate hardware before shipping out to ensure you get the right size adapters for the right piece of equipment It has a patented torsion suspension and trailing arm design and is built with serviceable wear parts “There’s nothing similar on the market ” she says “Other zero-turn suspension systems don’t have down travel so they’re not as effective when you drive over a hole or a wheel rut as shown in head-to-head testing ” Contact: FARM SHOW Followup May Wes 120 Eastgate Dr S E Hutchinson Minn 55350 ph 800-788-6483; www maywes com
