McDonough, Ga., (September 24, 2004) — Snapper is introducing a new infinite ground speed adjustment called Easy Speed for model year 2005 walk-behind mowers.

The Easy Speed Control is part of a new upper console on Snapper walk-behinds that also includes color-coded controls, a cup holder and wider, more comfortable handles.
