The World’s first Zero Turn Lawnmower
The first Hustler was a combination of mower parts and farm machinery, created by a genius named John Regier. Mr. Regier’s mower cut grass and steered like no other. It could circle flag pole or reverse directions at a fence line, with a turn radius of zero degrees. With this, the world’s first zero-turn mower was born. And it changed everything.
When Mr. Regier brought his design to tractor cab manufacturer Excel Industries, the timing was perfect. He couldn’t maintain production alone, and Excel was looking to expand its product line. When the folks at Excel saw the mower in action, they knew they had a product that would revolutionize the mowing industry. Under the direction of company president Roy Mullet, Excel began production of Hustler mowers at its plant in Hesston, Kansas.
