CPSC, Excel Industries Inc. Announce Recall of Riding Lawn Mowers

WASHINGTON, D.C. - In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Excel Industries Inc., of Hesston, Kan., is voluntarily recalling about 1,500 Hustler "FasTrak" riding lawn mowers. Excessive heat, vibrations and wear causes the fuel line to droop over time and rub against the transmission fan, causing the fuel line to be cut. This poses a fire hazard and a risk of burn injuries to consumers.

Excel has received two reports of incidents where gasoline leaks were discovered. No injuries or property damage have been reported.

This recall involves Hustler "FasTrak" riding mowers with 44- and 52-inch decks. The riding mowers are yellow and black with the "FasTrak" logo printed on both sides. The model and serial number of the mower can be found on an identification plate on the left side of the frame in front of the fuel tank, below the operator's platform. This recall also includes products which are produced by Excel for Land Pride, Division of Great Plains Manufacturing, Inc., of Salina, KS. Land Pride's product is the "Accu-Z Razor." The riding mowers are beige and black with the "Razor Z" logo printed on the rear of the unit, and Accu-Z logo printed on both sides.
