FEATURES
POWERFUL 37 HP (27.6 KW) ENGINE HAS ELECTRONIC FUEL INJECTION (EFI) AND ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL FOR QUICK STARTS AND SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE
A commercial-quality, 37 hp (27.6 kW) gross at 3600 rpm, air-cooled engine with EFI powers the Z975M ZTrak Mower.
ENGINE FEATURES INCLUDE:
Standard cleanout ports for easy access to remove debris collecting in cooling fins
20-amp alternator
Air-cooled for minimum maintenance and maximum reliability

EFI WITH ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL
Electronically adjusts the supply of both fuel and air, responding instantaneously when the mower transitions from light to heavy mowing.
Unlike mechanical governors that droop under load, torque rises while maintaining constant full-throttle engine speed.
Productivity and cut quality are improved because the mower blades keep turning at full speed, delivering optimal cut quality and dispersion of clippings.
Immediate starting in hot or cold ambient temperatures or after long periods of seasonal storage
No choke linkage for the user to operate
Higher reliability with the elimination of vapor locking, misfiring, run-on, and after-bang
Automatic altitude compensation
Delivers fuel precisely for added efficiency
Reduces the potential for plug fouling

V-TWIN DESIGN
Fast starts
Smooth operation

OVERHEAD VALVES
More horsepower and torque per cubic inch of displacement
Better fuel efficiency

ALUMINUM CYLINDER BLOCK
Effectively dissipates heat to extend engine life
Lightweight and strong construction

FULL-PRESSURE LUBRICATION WITH FULL-FLOW FILTER
Reduces engine wear by ensuring proper lubrication, even when operating on hillsides or uneven terrain
Filtered oil reduces risk of contamination for increased engine life for increased engine life

ZTrak Z900 Mowers are equipped with a dual-element, canister-style air filter, easily accessible from the rear of the machine without tools.
The filtration system pulls clean air from above the engine, in turn filtering out the dust that can damage an engine over time.
Filters are extremely easy to change when required.
Pre-cleaner provides more protection against contamination in dusty and dirty applications.

The ZTrak Z900 Mowers are equipped with one single-fill, top-draw fuel tank:
11.5-U.S. gal. (43.5-L) capacity enables operators to mow all day without refueling.
The fuel gauge makes it quick and easy to see how much fuel is in the tank.
Top draw provides added safety.
A large fuel-filler neck is angled to make it easy for an operator to complete the fueling process.

KEY FEATURES OF THE 7-IRON PRO MOWER DECK:
Deck is forged 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.
Significantly fewer welds on the deck shell to wear or break - it is forged from a single sheet of steel rather than multiple fabrications. An anti-skid step on the deck provides easy machine mounting.
Extra reliability and long life with cast-iron blade spindle housings.
Higher blade tip speed than many competitors - approximately 18,500 fpm (5,639 m/min) for more blade cuts per inch mowed.
A deep-deck design of 5.5 in. (14 cm) delivers excellent airflow so material can be processed quickly and efficiently.
The wider and higher discharge opening provides even clipping dispersal for an excellent finished appearance in all conditions.
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.
