How to Tow a Trailer With a Scag

Scag Power Equipment has been manufacturing lawn equipment since 1983. Their zero-turn riding mowers make navigating even the most complex lawn a simple procedure, turning 360 degrees on the spot. If your Scag mower is equipped with the optional trailer hitch, you can tow a small utility trailer that has a ring-style coupler. The Scag can tow a trailer and cargo that weights up to 250 lbs.
