The Z997R Diesel ZTrak™ Zero-Turn Mower is a high-performance professional machine designed for maintaining large green spaces such as sports fields, golf courses, public parks, and agricultural land. It is built for durability, power, and productivity, making it suitable for intensive, long-hour commercial use in demanding conditions.

It is powered by a liquid-cooled, three-cylinder diesel engine producing up to 37.4 horsepower, delivering strong torque, excellent fuel efficiency, smooth operation, and relatively low noise levels.

This model is equipped with a heavy-duty 7Iron™ PRO forged steel cutting deck in a 72-inch (183 cm) side-discharge configuration. The deck is made from one-piece 7-gauge steel (0.179 in / 4.5 mm), ensuring exceptional strength and resistance to heavy impacts. It features three high-lift blades operating at a tip speed of approximately 18,000 fpm (5486 m/min), providing a clean, consistent, and high-quality cut even in dense grass.

The cutting height can be adjusted from 1.5 to 5 inches (3.8 to 12.7 cm) in 0.25-inch (1.3 cm) increments, allowing precise control depending on the application. Height adjustment is made easy through a turning knob with foot assist, improving efficiency during operation. The mower can also be fitted with an optional field-installed mulching kit for added versatility.

For durability and reliability, the cutting system includes cold-forged and heat-treated spindles, ABEC-1 grade bearings, and ductile cast-iron spindle housings. Both front and rear anti-scalp rollers are standard, helping protect turf and maintain an even cut on uneven terrain.

The zero-turn design allows the machine to rotate on its own axis, offering excellent maneuverability and efficiency, especially in tight or complex spaces. It also features advanced systems such as Drive-by-Wire steering for precise control and LoadMatch™ technology to maintain cutting performance under heavy load conditions.

Operator comfort is a key focus, with a premium air-suspension seat, adjustable settings, armrests, and vibration reduction to reduce fatigue during long working hours. The machine can reach speeds of up to 18.5 km/h, ensuring high productivity over large areas.

It is equipped with a large 45.4-liter (12-gallon) fuel tank, allowing extended operation without frequent refueling. Maintenance points are designed for easy access to reduce downtime, and the machine features a strong frame with a Rollover Protection System (ROPS) for enhanced operator safety.

Overall, the Z997R Diesel ZTrak™ 72-inch model is an ideal solution for professionals seeking maximum power, durability, and cutting efficiency for large-scale mowing operations.
