Heavy Duty Air Cleaner

Deluxe 2-stage air cleaner protects engine from contaminants and prolongs product life. Standard on Z450 PRO Performance and available as an optional upgrade on Z440 PRO Value models.

Patented Adjustable Baffle

Allows operator to achieve maximum cutting performance by fine-tuning deck to conquer changing conditions, at unique job sites or different times of the season. In extreme conditions, the baffle can be opened in order to conserve power and achieve faster mowing speeds. In less demanding conditions, the baffle can be closed to yield micro-sized particles and maximize discharge velocity.

A flat, crisp cut with precision blades.

1/4" 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.

*Z400 Series blades are similar to those found on the Z500 Series pictured below.

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 minimize blowout of debris and dust. The bottom, leading edge of the deck is raised 1/4", allowing grass to stand more upright when entering the cutting chamber, ensuring a level cut. Leaf "plowing" during spring and fall clean-up is also significantly reduced.

Convenience and Comfort

Operator controls are conveniently grouped in a single location.
Large 1-5/8" diameter steering levers increase comfort and reduce fatigue.

7-gauge, high-strength steel

Constructed of high-strength 7-gauge steel (50,000 psi minimum yield strength), the deck shell is extremely resistant to impacts and abrasion. At a full 5-1/2" deep, the TURBO FORCE deck has more than enough capacity to handle the most demanding conditions.*

Rugged Frame

Deck Offset

Z400 Series cutting decks are offset toward the trim side in order to provide trimming capabilities that are superior to those of comparable compact ZRTs. The trim side of the deck is also reinforced by a rugged 1/2" x 1-1/2" steel wear guard.

Folding Rollover Protection System ROPS

A Rollover Protection System (ROPS), complete with seat belt, comes standard for operator protection in the case of accidental rollovers and tipovers.

The industry's toughest spindle assembly

Rigorously tested to ensure that it can survive impacts that would destroy lesser spindles. The cast iron housing, with a massive 9-3/8" diameter base, absorbs impact loads and distributes them across a broader area of the robust deck shell.
