Introducing the Simplicity Baron…a rear discharge tractor that assures a manicured cut by discharging grass up the center chute beneath the tractor into the easiest grass catching and emptying system available. The Baron was developed for the homeowner who wants the convenience of using both sides of the mower for trimming, to collect clippings and have an emptying system which lets the driver stay on the tractor.

Trims Close On Both Sides
Like all Simplicity lawn tractors, the Baron delivers the best cut with our new 40", Free Floating™ mower deck. The patented design of this mower features twin, counter-rotating blades to stand up and cut even the most challenging lawns. An 18-hp Briggs and Stratton Intek™ V-twin engine provides plenty of power to the mower to lift clippings and accelerate them into the collector.

A New Easy-to-Use Collector System
After being cut, grass clippings flow through a tube beneath the tractor and are deposited into a specifically designed collector, located behind the driver's seat. An audible alarm signals when the six-bushel collector is ready to be emptied. A foot-controlled petal activates two gas-filled shocks that raise the collector and the grass falls out. There is also a handle atop the collector which allows the driver to close it without leaving the tractor's seat.

The suggested retail price range for the Baron is $4149 to $4849.
