Cub Cadet Self-Propelled Mowers SC500K

The Cub Cadet SC500K is a self-propelled residential lawn mower built for yards with challenging or uneven terrain. It is designed to help owners maintain areas that require stable traction and consistent cutting.

The mower uses a commercial-grade Kohler engine designed for easy starting, extended use and reduced noise, and it includes dual lever drive control that allows operation with either hand. The steel deck was engineered for demanding areas and provides 3-in-1 bagging, side discharge and mulching capability.

The SC500K is backed by a 3-year limited residential product warranty and a 1-year limited commercial engine warranty, with service and support available through a nationwide network of Cub Cadet dealers.
