Z Master 5000 Series mowers offer rear discharge decks for increased productivity in taller grass. These EFI models also use up to 25% less fuel than equivalent non-EFI mowers. The rear discharge design allows operators to trim on either side of the deck — no need to change direction to avoid discharging debris on roadways, sidewalks or flowerbeds. Clippings are dropped within the path of the mower, saving time and cleanup.

The Tweel Turf Tyres means no air pressure to maintain, no flat tyres, no compromises. Extra long wear life two to three times that of a pneumatic tyre at equal tread depth.

✔ Michelin® X® Tweel® Turf Tyres - No air pressure to maintain, no flat tyres, no compromises. Get extra long wear life two to three times that of a pneumatic tyre at equal tread depth.

✔ 7-Gauge, High-Strength Steel - The TURBO FORCE® deck is constructed of 7-gauge, high-strength steel which is 33% thicker and 32% higher in yield strength than ordinary 10-gauge commercial steel used in 7/10 decks. The combined effect is 75% stronger, so it easily handles the most demanding conditions and resists damage from impacts and abrasion.

✔ Crisp Cut with Precision Blades - (.250) thick precision blades resist flexing to provide a flat, crisp cut. High-strength, heat-treated alloy steel survives impacts and provides resistance to the rapid wear commonly associated with abrasive conditions. Options include Recycler® and Atomic® mulching blades, medium sail Bahai blades, and low sail sand blades.

✔ Deluxe Suspension Seat - Deluxe suspension seat features thick cushions, large bolsters and 3-D isolator mounts that absorb bumps and vibrations to reduce operator fatigue.

✔ Smarter design in a bull-nose bumper - 7-gauge bull-nose bumper not only protects against frontal impacts, but also contains an integral underskirt to minimise blowout of debris and dust. The bottom, leading edge of the deck is raised 6 mm (1/4"), allowing grass to stand more upright when entering the cutting chamber, ensuring a level cut. Leaf "plowing" during spring and autumn clean-up also is significantly reduced.

✔ Smooth, Powerful Response - The new unitised pump and wheel motor use proven commercial hydraulic components while eliminating hoses and other potential leak points. You'll get a smoother, faster response while enjoying an even more reliable machine.

✔ Operator Information Centre - The instrument panel includes a digital hour meter, fuel gauge, and voltage meter, as well as diagnostic indicators for the safety interlock system.

✔ Folding Rollover Protection System ROPS -  Rollover Protection System (ROPS), complete with seat belt, comes standard for operator protection in the case of accidental rollovers and tipovers. In situations where sufficient vertical clearance is not available, such as loading on an enclosed trailer, the ROPS can be temporarily unlocked and folded down.

✔ Cast Aluminium Spindle - Cools quickly for enhanced durability and performance.
