Features
All
Durable Kubota Gasoline Engine - The new, V-Twin Kubota gasoline engine delivers durability and productivity like nothing else. Available in 22HP or 27HP, this reliable, air-cooled engine offers outstanding performance and quiet operation. Specifically designed for mowing, it features Kubota's clean-flow structure, which virtually eliminates the likelihood of grass clippings clogging the wide cooling air passage. And Kubota makes maintenance simple -- the engine cover can be removed so you can perform routine maintenance without taking the engine out of the machine. Plus, a unique carburetor drain cock allows you to drain out residual gasoline, to keep fuel lines clean and making the transportation or long-term storage of the mower safer.
Kubota Diesel Engine - Kubota diesel engines are known for their durability, high performance, energy efficiency and reliability. Their fuel efficiency, high torque, quiet operation and reduced emissions help you take on heavy mowing jobs for extended periods. And, with out 21HP engine, it will exceed the high expectations of the commercial landscaper.
Flexible Cover - The Z-200 Series employ a flexible-yet-sturdy discharge cover to help prevent damage to shrubs and landscaping.
Pedal-type Lift System - Elevate the mower deck and roll right over obstacles. The Z-200 Series include a hydraulic lift system that raises and lowers the deck with the simple push of a pedal. And, if necessary, a special one-touch lock allows you to keep the deck in place.
Operator Deck - Work in style and comfort. The spacious operator deck has an uncluttered floorboard to give you ample legroom.
Comfortable Seat - To make mowing tasks more comfortable, we've included a cushioned seat with sturdy, padded armrests. The adjustable seat also features an attached seatbelt for your protection.
Pro Commercial Mower Deck - The Z-200 Series feature heavy-duty, 48"/54" Pro Commercial mower decks designed to maximize cutting performance. The 6"-deep, double V-belt decks feature a unique baffling system that improves airflow to discharge grass clippings, and an anti-overflow system that reduces grass spillage and helps give lawns that well-manicured look.
Easy Maintenance - Maintaining your Z-200 Series doesn't get easier. The seat panel lifts up for quick access to the HST. Routine maintenance is easy -- just open the hood. The maintenance hatch on the operator platform makes upper mower access a snap. For a complete view, all three can be opened at the same time. Plus, a dual-element air cleaner is also included.
Underside Maintenance - For easy access to the upper mower, mower belts and universal joint parts, the Z-200 Series feature a convenient maintenance hatch built into the operator's platform.
Panel
With the user-friendly instrument panel, Kubota keeps essential controls and indicators close for easy access and viewing. They're all here - warning indicator, fuel gauge and more.
