High-capacity (HC) PRO Mower Decks offer superior cut quality and versatility

The mower deck has a deep-deck design:

• Forged from heavy, 9-gauge, 0.15-in. (3.8-mm) steel.
  • Minimizes the number of welds required
  • Has a smooth underside for reduced material buildup
• Deep-deck design delivers excellent airflow, so large volumes of material can be processed quickly and efficiently.
• A wider and higher discharge opening provides even clipping dispersal for an excellent finished appearance in all conditions.
• A durable, plastic deflector spreads grass clippings evenly across the lawn, is hinged, and can be raised to minimize the storage space required.
• 1-in. (25.4-mm) cold-forged spindles are heat-treated for strength and are supported by ball bearings.
• Standard front rollers and two double-captured wheels provide a more even mowing job and reduce the chance of scalping.
  • Adjustable for different mowing heights
• The front edge is raised above the blade plane to allow for even cutting of tall grass.
• Blade overlap is greater than many conventional decks for a clean cut.
• The mower can side-discharge, mulch, or collect material, except a Z740R or Z760R equipped with Tweel tires are not compatible with a material collection system.

Superior durability and productivity from flat-top design of 9-gauge, 0.15-in. (3.8-mm) high capacity mower decks

High Capacity Mower Decks are a heavy-duty, 9-gauge, 0.15-in. (3.8-mm), forged-steel, deep, flat-top design that delivers excellent cut quality, productivity, cleanliness, durability, and versatility. Experience optimal performance and dispersion of clippings, even at faster mowing speeds:

• Deep-deck design throughout the entire deck shell provides optimum mowing, mulching, and bagging performance.
  • Optional MulchControl™ attachment provides superior mulching performance and versatility (not available on 48HC decks).
• Forged-steel design eliminates sharp edges and corners where material can build up and diminish mowing performance.
• Mower deck is suspended from the vehicle for a smooth and level cut.
  • Adjustable mower wheels positioned just above ground level help smooth out the mowing job.

Heavy-duty design delivers strength and durability

Large front caster wheels provide a smooth ride and level cut:

• A large surface area helps to provide a smooth ride for the operator.

• • Pneumatic tires for the smoothest ride (Z720E, Z735E, Z730M, Z735M, Z740R, Z760R)
  • Semi-pneumatic tires for extra reliability and durability (Z740R and Z760R with Tweel® tire technology)
  • Better performance on slopes

• Caster wheels turn easily on two maintenance-free sealed ball bearings for both the spindles and the wheel axles.
  • Long, trouble-free life
  • Designed to give smooth turns without damage to the turf

Transmission offers speeds up to 10 mph (16.1 km/h) to maximize mowing efficiency

Dual transmissions efficiently power the ZTrak™ mower forward and reverse and give steering capability:

• The unitized hydrostatic drive features a hydraulic pump combined with a commercial-grade, heavy-duty wheel motor into a single unit.
• One pump and one motor transmission to drive each wheel provides several benefits:
  • Exceptional cooling in high-load conditions
  • Easy-to-check fluid level and refill with hydraulic oil
  • Opens up access under the seat
• Transmissions are set low in the vehicle for excellent hillside stability.
• Heavy-duty components stand up to the higher loads from the larger tires and greater weight of Z700 Series ZTrak Mowers.
• Low maintenance, unitized transmissions are sealed and have no hose connections to leak hydraulic fluid.
• Four-bolt hubs provide a reliable and convenient wheel-mounting system.

The hydrostatic drive features two Hydro-Gear ZT-3400® transmissions for superior performance and durability:

• Unitized hydraulic pumps and commercial-grade, heavy-duty wheel motors combined into a single unit
• Speeds up to 10 mph (16.1 km/h)
• Pump displacement: 0.73 cu in. (12 cc) per revolution
• Motor displacement: 0.97 cu in. (16 cc) per revolution
• Durable 1-in. (2.54-cm) axles for heavy loads
• Standard shock valves for added system protection
• Standard charge pump for increased performance
• External oil filter for easier maintenance

Protective zone around the operator is provided by the rollover protective structure (ROPS)

The spacious operator station has been designed for comfort, visibility, and ease of use:

• Getting on and off is easy with the flat operator platform.
• Convenient-to-use controls are located close to the operator.
• Operator controls are color coded and designed for easy identification and operation.

The ROPS and seat belt work in conjunction to provide a protective zone around the operator:

• It reduces the operator’s risk of being crushed under the vehicle should it overturn.
• In most situations, the ROPS limits the overturn to little more than 90 degrees.
• When used with a seatbelt, the ROPS is very effective in preventing deaths and serious injuries.
  • Use of the seat belt is recommended when operating with ROPS in the upright position.

Optional Michelin® X® Tweel® Turf airless radial tire technology on the Z740R and Z760R for extra reliability and ride quality

Advantages of using the Michelin X Tweel Turf tires include:

• More comfortable ride because of less bounce.
• Mowing performance is improved.
• Rutting is reduced because the Michelin X Tweel Turf has more support across the surface for improved flotation and better ground contact.
• Unique energy transfer within the poly-resin spokes reduces the bounce associated with pneumatic tires.
• Excellent curb climbing is possible due to the Michelin X Tweel Turf construction and flexibility.
• More consistent cut quality is achieved because inconsistent tire pressure is eliminated.
• Uptime is improved.
  • The exclusive technology eliminates downtime and associated cost due to flat or damaged tires.
  • Punctures and sidewall damage no longer result in downtime.
• Cost of operation is reduced.
  • Cost of repairs and maintenance is reduced.
  • One single unit replaces the current tire, wheel, and valve assembly.
  • There is no need for complex tire-mounting equipment.
  • No need to spend time checking and optimizing tire pressure.
  • The need to purchase and stock plug kits and spare tires is eliminated.
  • The tire tread will last up to three times longer than current pneumatic tires because automotive-grade rubber is used for the tread.
