Product Description
The Toro PROLINE HDX 60-Inch Commercial Walk-Behind Mower is engineered for professional landscapers, grounds-maintenance teams, municipalities, schools, and property managers who need dependable commercial performance across large lawns and demanding mowing environments.
Powered by a commercial-grade 22 HP Kawasaki FX-Series engine, this mower provides the torque and durability required for regular professional use. The 726cc gasoline engine is paired with a Hydro-Gear ZT-3100 transmission, delivering smooth forward and reverse operation with responsive twin-lever steering controls.
Its wide 60-inch cutting deck allows operators to cover large areas efficiently, reducing the number of passes needed to complete each property. The deck is manufactured from high-strength 7/10-gauge steel and incorporates a reinforced bull-nose front bumper, durable rubber discharge chute, anti-scalp wheels, and maintenance-free spindle bearings.
A deep 4.5-inch deck chamber promotes strong airflow and efficient clipping discharge. Three cutting blades operate at a blade-tip speed of up to 18,500 feet per minute, helping produce a clean, professional finish in changing grass conditions.
The single-point height-of-cut system allows the operator to adjust the cutting height from 1.5 to 4.5 inches without making separate adjustments at multiple deck positions. This simplifies setup when moving between properties or adapting to seasonal turf requirements.
Large 20-inch rear drive tires provide traction, stability, and improved control when mowing slopes or uneven ground. Their size also creates additional curb clearance, making it easier to move between landscaped sections and over common property transitions.
The mower can reach forward mowing speeds of up to 7 mph and reverse speeds of up to 3 mph. Its electric-start system, five-gallon fuel tank, commercial transmission, and straightforward controls help reduce interruptions during long mowing sessions.
An optional folding two-wheel sulky can be added for operators who prefer a ride-on platform. The sulky rotates through 360 degrees and folds when not in use, but it is not included with the standard mower.
Toro backs model 44460 with a three-year, 750-hour commercial warranty, subject to the manufacturer’s terms and dealer confirmation.

Cutting System
The mower is equipped with a commercial 60-inch deck using three blades. Its deep cutting chamber supports airflow beneath the deck, helping lift grass before cutting and move clippings toward the side-discharge opening.
The standard setup is intended for side discharge. Toro also lists compatible bagging and Recycler mulching accessories, which are sold separately and must be selected according to the mower’s model and serial number.
Transmission and Handling
The Hydro-Gear ZT-3100 transmission provides independent drive control through the mower’s twin steering levers. This arrangement gives the operator precise control when turning, reversing, lining up each pass, or navigating around obstacles.
Large rear tires improve stability and control on uneven terrain and moderate side slopes. The mower should always be operated according to Toro’s slope limitations and safety instructions.

The mower incorporates several features intended to simplify professional maintenance:
- Removable cutting-deck cover
- Maintenance-free spindle bearings
