<h5>Air cleaner filters out dust that can damage an engine</h5>
<p>ZTrak™ Z900 Mowers are equipped with a dual-element, canister-style air filter, easily accessible from the rear of the machine without tools.</p>
<ul>
<li>The filtration system pulls clean air from above the engine, in turn filtering out the dust that can damage an engine over time.</li>
<li>Filters are extremely easy to change when required.</li>
<li>Pre-cleaner provides more protection against contamination in dusty and dirty applications.</li>
</ul>
<h5>Mow all day on a single tank of fuel with efficient and easy-to-fill fuel tank</h5>
<p>The ZTrak™ Z900 Mowers are equipped with one single-fill, top-draw fuel tank:</p>
<ul>
<li>11.5-U.S. gal. (43.5-L) capacity enables operators to mow all day without refueling.</li>
<li>The fuel gauge makes it quick and easy to see how much fuel is in the tank.</li>
<li>Top draw provides added safety.</li>
<li>A large fuel-filler neck is angled to make it easy for an operator to complete the fueling process.</li>
</ul>
<p>Under normal conditions, load, and operation, fuel consumption for the Z900 ZTrak Mowers is 1.5 U.S. gph (5.7 L/hr) to 2.2 U.S. gph (8.3 L/hr), depending on the horsepower and conditions.</p>
</p>
</div>


Powerful 35.0-hp (26.1-kW) commercial-grade engine delivers class-leading performance and efficiency

<div>
<p>The ZTrak™ M and R Series Mowers are equipped with either a side-discharge or Mulch On Demand™ 7-Iron PRO deck.</p>
<p>7-Iron PRO mower decks have demonstrated quality, performance, and durability. They deliver a high-quality cut in diverse conditions.</p>
<p>Key features of the 7-Iron PRO mower deck:</p>
<ul>
<li>Deck is stamped from 7-gauge, 0.179-in. (4.6-mm) steel to minimize the number of welds and provide a smooth underside with fewer sharp corners for reduced material buildup.</li>
<li>Significantly fewer welds on the deck shell to wear or break &#8211; it is stamped from a single sheet of steel rather than multiple fabrications. An anti-skid step on the deck provides easy machine mounting.</li>
<li>Extra reliability and long life with cast-iron blade spindle housings.</li>
<li>Higher blade tip speed than many competitors &#8211; 18,500 fpm (5,639 m/min) for more blade cuts per inch mowed.</li>
<li>A deep-deck design of 5.5 in. (14 cm) delivers excellent airflow so material can be processed quickly and efficiently.</li>
<li>The wider and higher discharge opening provides even clipping dispersal for an excellent finished appearance in all conditions.</li>
<li>Quick-release belt covers do not require tools or the removal of a ring clip; just lift one corner of the cover and rotate it slightly to remove.
<ul>
<li>A hole in the deck tab is provided for use of an optional ring clip for extra security, if desired.</li>
<li>This makes it quick and easy for you to clean out trash that may collect around the spindle sheave.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Deck has rectangular leading deck edge reinforcement and the rounded corners of the stamped deck help distribute impact stress to reduce the potential of damage when the mower contacts trees, rocks, curbs, and other fixed obstacles.</li>
<li>Dual-captured front and rear anti-scalp wheels provide deck flotation over even the toughest terrain.</li>
<li>Three 1-in. (2.5-cm), cold-forged spindles are heat-treated for strength without bulk and are supported by ball bearings, providing reliability and performance; spindle housings are ribbed cast iron providing both excellent strength and heat dissipation.</li>
<li>The front edge is raised above the blade plane to allow even cutting of tall grass and is reinforced with a square bar for durability. The front baffle has been redesigned to better manage airflow and control clippings.</li>
<li>Three spindle grease fittings are accessible from the top.</li>
<li>Blade overlap is 1.6 in. (40.6 mm), nearly 0.79 in. (20 mm) greater than previous decks, to reduce striping between blades.</li>
<li>Quick-change, cutting-height adjustment.</li>

Extra durability and mowing performance from 7-Iron™ PRO Side-Discharge decks pressed from a single piece of steel

<div>
<p>The Mulch On Demand mower deck delivers unprecedented levels of productivity and versatility to commercial mower operation. With the ability to switch between side discharge and mulching operation with the flip of a lever as the operator mows, keeping most clippings out of landscaping features and where they are wanted is extremely easy.</p>
<p>Key features of the 7-Iron™ PRO Mulch On Demand mower deck:</p>
<ul>
<li>Deck can be converted from a wide-open side discharge mode to a fully chambered mulching mode with a single move of a lever.
<ul>
<li><em>NOTE: Mulch On Demand decks are a balance between a side discharge deck and a side discharge deck with a mulching kit.</em></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Deck is stamped from 7-gauge, 0.179-in. (4.6-mm) steel to minimize the number of welds and provide a smooth underside, with fewer sharp corners, for reduced material buildup.</li>
<li>Significantly fewer welds on the deck shell to wear or break- it is stamped from a single sheet of steel rather than multiple fabrications. Anti-skid step on the deck provides for easy machine mounting.</li>
<li>Mulch On Demand decks are superior to aftermarket chute blockers due to the movable baffles.</li>
<li>Higher blade tip speed than many competitors &#8211; 18,500 fpm (5,639 m/min) for more blade cuts per inch mowed.</li>
<li>Rounded corners of the stamped deck help distribute impact stress to reduce the potential of damage when the mower contacts trees, rocks, curbs, and other fixed obstacles.</li>
<li>Deep-deck design of 5.5 in. (14 cm) delivers excellent airflow so material can be processed quickly and efficiently.</li>

Available Mulch On Demand™ deck

<div>
<p>For professional landscapers and government municipalities requiring rear discharge placement of grass and debris, John Deere Fastback PRO rear-discharge mower decks deliver a commercial zero-turn mowing solution for both gas and diesel machines. Advantages of a rear-discharge mower include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Less chance of damage from objects being thrown from the mower deck</li>
<li>Time savings with the ability to mow closely around fixed objects with either side of the deck</li>
<li>A cleaner mowing experience by lessening the amount of debris that can blow onto the operator</li>
</ul>
<p>A rear-discharge mower deck is ideally suited for:</p>
<ul>
<li>Schools</li>
<li>Parks</li>
<li>Playgrounds</li>
<li>Traffic areas (city boulevards, roadsides, etc.)</li>
<li>Areas with long, grassy spots that need to be cut, where you are not as concerned about wide dispersal of grass (park areas, roadsides, etc.)*</li>
</ul>
<p><em>*NOTE: Operators maintaining turf outside of target areas are encouraged to evaluate rear-discharge dispersion through a cut quality demonstration to ensure satisfaction.</em></p>

<h5>Commercial-quality deck design</h5>
<p>A large volume of material can be thoroughly processed with the deep-deck design:</p>
<ul>
<li>Unique baffling system is designed to reduce clumping and windrowing often associated with rear-discharge mowers.
<ul>
<li>Efficiency is enhanced with baffles surrounding each blade to control material as it is moved to the rear.</li>
<li>Material exits the deck quickly as the baffles are lower at the rear.</li>
<li>Movement of material is controlled to minimize the likelihood that clippings are thrown onto unwanted areas.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Less debris gets on the operator as material is directed to the rear and toward the ground.
<ul>
<li>Debris is kept low and directed into the turf by the flexible rear shield.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<h5>Level cut</h5>
<p>The deck is suspended from and supported by the machine to provide a level cut. Mower deck wheels and rollers help smooth out the mowing job in uneven conditions and reduce the chance of scalping the lawn:</p>
<ul>
<li>Two wide front rollers at the center of the mower support the deck when necessary to prevent scalping.</li>
<li>Wheels at all four corners protect the deck from scalping at the sides of the mower.</li>
<li>Continued effectiveness results from wheels and rollers that are double captured for extra strength, which reduces the chance of damage.</li>
<li>Height of rollers and wheels is adjustable to suit mowing conditions.
<ul>
<li>Higher setting (shown in images) are used when mowing at lower cut heights and for rougher conditions at all cut heights where you want to reduce the chance of the wheels hitting the ground.</li>
<li>Lower settings are used for higher cut heights and for helping to smooth out the mowing job.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Mower cut height is adjustable from 1 to 5.5 in. (2.54 to 14 cm) in 0.25-in. (0.64-cm) increments from the machine operator’s station.</li>
</ul>
<p>Extra reliability and long life are provided by cast-iron blade spindle housings:</p>
<ul>
<li>Ductile cast-iron material provides superior impact strength.</li>
<li>Gusseted design puts reinforcement where it is needed.</li>
<li>Strength of cast iron protects against damage from blade impacts.</li>

<h5>Brake &amp; Go starting system</h5>
<p>The Brake &amp; Go starting system is a John Deere exclusive. This feature makes the starting process on all ZTrak™ mowers easier, while also making it possible to remove two interlock switches from the machine.<br /> <br />The Brake &amp; Go starting procedure helps a novice operator look and feel like a professional. To start the machine, the parking brake must be engaged. It does not matter whether the power take-off (PTO) switch is on or off, nor does it matter if the control levers are pulled in or in the out position.<br /> <br />As long as the parking brake is engaged, the machine will start. When the parking brake is applied, the control levers cannot be moved to the forward or reverse positions.</p>
<h5>Designed for operator comfort</h5>
<p>Two-lever hydrostatic control provides the following:</p>
<ul>
<li>The operator can select the ground speed and direction control simply by moving levers forward or reverse.</li>
<li>Positive neutral lock position for levers provides added safety.</li>
<li>Brake &amp; Go operator-presence system returns levers to the neutral position when the brake pedal is actively engaged. </li>
<li>Starting the machines is as easy as starting a car. It no longer matters if the control levers are extended out or pulled in, as long as the parking brake is engaged. Just turn the key and go.</li>
<li>Wide-bend, large-diameter steering levers swing out easily for entry and exit from the operator platform.</li>
</ul>
<h5>Foot pegs</h5>
<p>Foot pegs help in providing the operator with a comfortable foot placement:</p>
<ul>
<li>Location and angle of foot pegs can be adjusted for individual operator comfort.</li>
</ul>
<h5>Foot platform isolators</h5>
<p>Foot platform isolators provide the operator with added comfort:</p>
<ul>
<li>Vibration to the legs and feet is reduced.</li>
</ul>
<h5>Adjustable levers</h5>
<p>The motion control levers have two height positions and can also be adjusted forward or rearward within the slotted holes. The levers should be adjusted so the operator can achieve a full range of control operation comfortably.</p>
<h5>Tracking adjustment</h5>
<p>The easy-to-turn (from-the-seat) tracking adjustment allows operators to keep their mowers straight and able to produce professional striping results.</p>
<h5>Easy-to-operate height-of-cut adjustment enables on-the-go changes</h5>
<p>An easy-to-use cutting-height lift system allows the operator to adjust the mower deck height with no tools and minimal effort. The easy-to-grip knob allows operators to dial in the desired height of cut (HOC). </p>
<p>Cutting height can be adjusted from approximately 1 in. to 5.5 in. (2.5 cm to 14 cm). Each increment on the knob adjusts the HOC approximately 0.25 in. (0.64 cm). The deck can also be raised and locked in a transport position to provide maximum ground clearance when moving the machine from one area to another.</p>
<p>The transport lock function allows the deck to be returned to the previous HOC after being in the transport position:</p>
<ul>
<li>Use the foot-lift pedal to lift the deck and engage the transport lock.</li>
<li>Rotate the knob to adjust from 1 in. to 5.5 in. (2.5 cm to 14 cm) in 0.25-in. (0.64 cm) increments.</li>
</ul>
<p>This design increases productivity by allowing operators to change the cutting height without having to leave the seat.</p>
<h5>Onboard storage and cup holder</h5>
<p>Several storage areas are provided on the ZTrak machines. A convenient cup holder is also available.</p>
<h5>Right-hand control panel</h5>
<p>The controls are grouped together on the right console, providing one central location for key switch, throttle, PTO engagement, height-of-cut, diagnostics, and hour meter:</p>
<ul>
<li>Rocker-type PTO switch</li>
<li>Height-of-cut knob with transport lock</li>
<li>Key switch</li>
<li>Hour meter</li>
<li>Throttle</li>
<li>Separate choke control
<ul>
<li>Easy choke operation yields less fouling of plugs</li>
<li>No choke required for the electronic fuel injection (EFI) models</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</div>


Two seat choices with ComfortGlide™ fore/aft suspension offer exceptional operator comfort

</div>


Heavy-duty frame provides strength and durability

<div>
<p>The hydrostatic drive included with the R Series Mowers features two 13-cc (0.8-cu in.) unitized hydraulic pumps combined with commercial-grade, heavy-duty, 13-cc (0.8-cu in.) wheel motors into a single unit. The R Series drive units feature cross porting, where the hydraulic fluid from the side doing the least work is filtered and then fed into the input of the side doing the most work. This ensures that the coolest fluid is going into the side working the hardest in order to provide the best performance during extended hillside operation in the same direction.</p>
<p>One pump and one motor drive each wheel on the ZTrak™ R Series Mowers. This provides several benefits:</p>
<ul>
<li>Exceptional cooling in high load conditions</li>
