ZALANA 103-6393 103-6398 Lawn Mower High Lift Blades Replaces 103-6383 116-5174 96-749 Compatible with Exmark Lazer Z DS-Series E-Series Turf Tracer 60" Deck (12PCS)

What It Is

This is a 12-pack of high-lift lawn mower blades designed for commercial-grade Exmark mowers with a 60-inch cutting deck. The high-lift profile creates increased airflow for superior bagging and clipping discharge, making them ideal for operators who need maximum grass collection or side-discharge performance in tall or wet conditions.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, verify these three things:

1. Deck size: These blades fit only 60-inch Exmark decks. Measure your deck width; a 60" deck typically uses three 20-inch blades.
2. Model series: Confirmed compatible with Exmark Lazer Z DS-Series, E-Series, and Turf Tracer models. Check your mower’s serial plate for exact model number—older Lazer Z or Quest models may differ.
3. OEM cross-reference: Replaces Exmark OEM part numbers 103-6383, 103-6393, 103-6398, 116-5174, and 96-749. If your current blade has any of these numbers stamped on it, these will work. If not, measure center hole diameter (typically 5/8") and overall length (20") to confirm.

Note: These are aftermarket blades. While they match OEM specs, if your mower is under warranty, aftermarket parts may void coverage. Check with your dealer first.

Key Things to Know

• High lift = more power draw. Expect slightly higher fuel consumption and reduced engine RPM in heavy grass compared to standard or low-lift blades. Not ideal for mulching.
• Installation: Requires a torque wrench—tighten to 70–90 ft-lbs. Use a blade removal tool or block of wood to prevent spinning. Always replace all three blades at once for balanced cutting.
• Common gotcha: The blade bolt pattern is universal for Exmark 60" decks, but the center hole diameter must match your spindle. Some older spindles use a 7/16" hole—measure yours before buying.
• No hardware included. You’ll need new blade bolts and lock washers (Exmark part 1-323007 or equivalent). Never reuse old bolts.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you run an Exmark 60" commercial mower and regularly bag grass or need aggressive discharge in tall, damp conditions. The 12-pack is a solid value for fleet operators or serious homeowners who want a season’s supply. Skip it if you primarily mulch—these blades won’t chop clippings finely enough. For occasional use, a 3-pack is more practical.
