“These mowers are perfect for homeowners with large properties or lawn to maintain that want a durable mower that mows like commercial mower, and will stand the test of time,” says Tom Vachal, Kubota senior turf product manager. (Original Z200-series mower shown; photo courtesy of Kubota.)

The Kubota Tractor Corporation recently announced the expansion of its residential mower line with an updated Z200 Series of zero-turn mowers. The series comprises three models, the Z232 with a 42-inch mower deck and the Z242 and Z252, which are available with either a 48-inch or 54-inch deck and Kohler or Kawasaki engines. Each of the new mowers features Kubota’s K-Ride comfort system to create a more enjoyable mowing experience. The new Z200 Series mowers will be available by the end of January.

A Solid Reputation

“These mowers are perfect for homeowners with large properties or lawn to maintain that want a durable mower that mows like commercial mower, and will stand the test of time,” says Tom Vachal, Kubota senior turf product manager. “Some say our mowers are over-engineered for the residential market, and we wouldn’t have it any other way. That’s how Kubota has built its reputation, on durable, high-quality equipment and we keep that bar high across all product lines.”

About The Z200 Series

The new Z200 Series offers a variety of options and features to meet different needs, including foldable rollover protection system (ROPS; available on the Kawasaki engine models) for easy storage, an adjustable high-back suspension seat for operator comfort, a storage box with a cover, a push-button starter, and a high-strength steel mower deck.

The K-Ride comfort system reduces vibration and improves the mowing experience. Features vary according to model, but include a new foot pan design with foot pan isolators to lower vibration, the K-Lift pedal, which lets operators adjust cutting height while mowing with a one-push pedal, and a redesigned HST lever to reduce vibration.

“Just stepping into the operator seat, you feel the difference, and when you fire up and engage the mower, you appreciate the K-RIDE comfort system,” says Vachal.
