Abstract: A triplex greensmower open foot platform provides an opening in front of an operator seat providing visibility from the operator seat to a center reel cutting unit. The opening has sufficient dimensions for removal or installation of the center reel cutting unit or a grass catcher therethrough. A pair of platform sections provides a perimeter at least partially around the opening. Each of the platform sections including a footrest and a rearwardly extending coupling that is manually removable from the triplex greensmower. A flexible cover may be removably attached to the platform and extend over the opening and at least part of the center reel cutting unit.

Abstract: A mower blade speed control system with an electronic control unit providing engine speed commands to an internal combustion engine having a maximum power speed and a reduced economy speed, and a continuously variable transmission with variable displacement providing rotational power from the engine to a plurality of mower blades. The electronic control unit monitors engine load and automatically adjusts engine speed and the displacement of the continuously variable transmission in response to engine load to achieve a constant rotational speed of a plurality of mower blades at different engine speeds.
