Common questions

About the FW45 Walk Behind Mower

What deck sizes does the FW45 Walk Behind Mower come in?
Ferris lists the FW45 Walk Behind Mower with a 48″ , 52″ , 61″ deck. Deck width is the constraint most people forget — measure your narrowest gate and your trailer before you choose. We will check it with you before you order.
Does the FW45 Walk Behind Mower have suspension?
Ferris does not list a suspension system on this model. If ride comfort over a long day is what you are solving for, ask us about the suspended models — that is the whole reason the brand exists.
What engine is in the FW45 Walk Behind Mower?
Ferris specifies Kawasaki® FX651 or Vanguard™ 810cc EFI with Oil Guard or Kawasaki® FX651V or Kawasaki® FX730V. We stock filters and service parts for these engines and our technicians are factory-trained on them.
Can I demo a FW45 Walk Behind Mower before I buy?
Yes. That is the point of a Ferris — the difference is something you feel, not something you read. Tell us the property and we will bring one to it or have one ready at the store nearest you.
Where can I get the FW45 Walk Behind Mower serviced?
At any Koenig store that carries Ferris, across western Ohio. Parts, warranty work and seasonal service all happen in the same building you bought it from.
Is the FW45 Walk Behind Mower covered by the 10-year suspension warranty?
Ferris's 10-year suspension warranty applies to eligible suspended units and carries its own exclusions. We will confirm eligibility for the exact configuration you are looking at before you buy — and we administer the claim if you ever need it.
