Toro Z Master Professional 6000 Series EFI mowers The Toro Z Master Professional 6000 Series EFI mower features closed-loop EFI technology from Kohler engines to allow the engine to automatically adapt to changes in load, weather, fuel and altitude. By continuously running at op- timal levels, the operator can enjoy faster response times and up to 25 percent higher fuel efficiency. The Professional 6000 Series EFI is equipped with a 29-hp. Kohler EFI engine that powers the durable and reliable Turbo Force cutting deck of either 60 or 72 inches. The efficient and high-quality cut of the Turbo Force deck is further enhanced, thanks to the ability of the engine to adapt to its environment. New Wright mid-mount zero-turn Wright Commercial Products introduced a new mid-mount zero-turning-radius mower, the ZTO (Zero Technology Opti- mized). The ZTO, with deck widths of 48, 52 and 61 inches, has enhanced features from the ground up. The rear tires are low-profile 23-inch by 10.5-inch and the front tires are 13-inch by 5-inch run flats. The transmissions are Z3400 se- ries Hydro-Gear. (This class of mower is usually equipped with the lighter 3100 series.) An undercarriage cage protects the transmissions and their filters, and an exclusive transmission interlock is built into the controls, eliminating the need for a separate parking brake. The cutting speed is 10.5 mph with either the standard 31-hp. Kawasaki FX or op- tional Briggs & Stratton Commercial Turf (Cyclonic) engine, and the 15-gallon fuel tank improves productivity even more. Cub Cadet commercial zero-turn riders Cub Cadet's next generation of advanced commercial zero turn riders includes the Tank SZ Commercial and Tank LZ Commercial. The Tank SZ (which denotes Steering wheel Zero turn) delivers incredible maneuverability, turf protection and remarkable traction — even on steep inclines — due to Cub Cadet's exclusive 4-wheel steering technology (patented as Synchro Steer Technology). The Tank LZ (which denotes Lap-bar Zero turn) features an intelligent and re- sponsive lap bar system that allows for a full range of adjustability and rider egress regardless of position. Grasshopper Model 321D-48 Big things come in small packages, and Grasshopper Model 321D-48 is no exception. With a compact size for preci- sion maneuvering in close quarters, an extra-deep 48-inch cutting deck for optimal airflow and a superior cut, and a powerful diesel engine that maintains blade tip speed in thick grass — while using less than one gallon of fuel every hour, saving up to $3,000 every year in fuel costs compared to gasoline and propane — Model 321D-48 increases op- erational efficiency and decreases costs for greater profitability. The Tier 4i-compliant, fuel-efficient diesel engine also reduces emissions of greenhouse gases, according to test data from the California Air Resources Board. Gravely Commercial Pro-Turn 400 XDZ Series mower Gravely offers the Pro-Turn 400 zero-turn mower designed for maximum operator comfort and efficiency. The Pro-Turn 400 features an air-suspension seat with added seat isolation to provide a smooth, comfortable ride for all-day opera- tion. The air pressure can be adjusted with the touch of a button and comfort foam feels more like an office chair than a standard mower seat. A rubber isolated foot platform also minimizes vibration for a more comfortable ride. The 7- gauge fabricated and welded X-Factor Deck features an all new deck-lift system. Minimal force is required to raise and lower the deck, reducing operator fatigue, especially for operators who manually float the deck over the terrain. Combined with the dial adjust height-of-cut system, the Pro-Turn 400 makes changing cutting height simple and easy to learn. Husqvarna P-ZT The Husqvarna P-ZT series offers commercial quality at an unbeatable value. Born and bred from the top of the line, the P-ZT does not hold back on durability, reliability and performance. This workhorse borrows key attributes from the PZ such as the commercial-duty chassis; heavy-duty front casters; convenient and comfortable operator interface and a clean, open design for unparalleled service access. All these features combine to offer one high-value, solid com- mercial performance package. www.landscapeirrigation.com Landscape and Irrigation 23
