Z445 wih 48" Deck

For model year 2011, the lineup of EZtrak models and features has been realigned to maximize customer value and provide distinct feature differences between the Z200s, Z400s, and the all-new Z600s (to be announced separately when they become available).

Key differences between the Z200s and Z400s are shown in the chart below:

Feature Z225, Z245 Z425, Z445, Z465
Transmission Hydro-Gear EZT Hydro-Gear ZT 2800
Drive Tire Diameter 18 in. (45.7 mm) 22 in. (55.9 mm)
Seat Height 15 in. (38.1 mm) 17 in. (43.2 mm)
Mower Decks 42- and 48-in. top discharge 48-, 54-, and 62-in. Edge™ Xtra

See the Model Comparison Chart for a more complete listing of product differences.

Improvements to all models include:

  • The engine mounting system has been designed to position the engine 1-in. lower and 2-in. rearward to lower the center of gravity and improve stability, for enhanced performance and safety.
  • Seat suspension springs have been added for greater operator comfort.
  • he fuel-fill opening is increased to 3-in. diameter and the fuel cap is tethered for easier refueling and reduced chance of spillage.
  • The battery has been repositioned for easier removal

The Z225 and Z245 will use the styled hopper, similar to the one used for the the Z425 and Z445, but as an economical cut-and-throw system. The new hopper assembly and chute fit any model year Z225 or Z245, but the new-style hopper and chute must be used together.

Z425, Z445, and Z465 Changes

  • New 17-in. seat with adjustable armrests and seat springs
