terrain, grasses, and climates. Kubota engines are used in a wide range of Toro commercial
equipment, making routine maintenance, servicing and parts availability simpler.
EXCEPTIONAL CUTTING
PERFORMANCE The Reelmaster
5500-D has heavy-duty, 7-inch diameter
reels that are available in 5, 7 or 11-blades
to match your mowing needs. And since
mowing conditions change during the
course of a year, the Reelmaster 5500-D
is equipped with manually adjustable reel
speed. You can change the reel speed and
clip frequency for different heights of cut,
grass types or mowing applications. The
bedknife attitude is also adjustable to fine
tune the after-cut appearance to meet
your expectations.

EXCELLENT OPERATOR COMFORT The large,
open operator station is designed for superior visibility and ease of
operation. A single joystick controls the raising and lowering of the
cutting units. All gauges and operator controls are easily accessible,
and a single forward and reverse pedal has standard traction speed
control to make mowing almost effortless. The deluxe seat can be
adjusted for operators of different sizes, and a cup holder and large
storage area are standard equipment.

OUTSTANDING TRACTION AND LIGHTNESS ON THE TURF An automotive-style axle
with differential action drives the Toro Reelmaster 5500-D. The mechanical axle transfers engine power more efficiently than
a hydraulic motor drive system, and without the potential issue of hydraulic leaks. The Reelmaster 5500-D is equipped with
individual drum wheel brakes for mowing, safe transporting, and parking. Choose from 2-wheel drive or on-demand 4-wheel
drive, each with high flotation front and rear tires to minimize PSI and tire marking.
