Toro Z Stand®

Exclusive Toro Z Stand on 20 kW (27 hp) models provides an on-board tool to simply elevate the front end of the machine and provide access to the underside of the deck.

Heavy Duty Air Cleaner

Deluxe 2-stage air cleaner protects engine from contaminants and prolongs product life.

System Alarms

Alarms notify operator of water in the fuel system, a loss of engine oil pressure, excessive water temperature, or an alternator that is not charging.

A flat, crisp cut with precision blades

6 mm thick precision blades resist flexing to provide a flat, crisp cut. High-strength, heat-treated alloy steel survives impacts and provides resistance to the rapid wear commonly associated with abrasive conditions.

Smarter design in a bull-nose bumper

7-gauge bull-nose bumper not only protects against frontal impacts, but also contains an integral underskirt to minimize blowout of debris and dust. The bottom, leading edge of the deck is raised 6 mm, allowing grass to stand more upright when entering the cutting chamber, ensuring a level cut. Leaf "plowing" during spring and fall clean-up also is significantly reduced.

Convenience and Comfort

Operator controls are conveniently located. Large 41 mm diametre steering levers increase comfort and reduce fatigue. Handy storage compartment provides location for cell phone, tools, and more. Built-in cup holder provided.

7-gauge, high-strength steel

Constructed of high-strength 7-gauge steel (50,000 psi minimum yield strength), the deck shell is extremely resistant to impacts and abrasion. At a full 14 cm deep, the TURBO FORCE deck has more than enough capacity to handle the most demanding conditions.

Powerful Engines

The Daihatsu 20 kW (27 hp) liquid-cooled diesel engines are geared for high torque while also delivering fast 17,7-19 km/h ground speeds. The powerful, yet fuel-efficient engines come in a compact package that is exceptionally well balanced for low vibration. The liquid-cooled system ensures cleaner combustion and extended engine life.

Folding Rollover Protection System

A Rollover Protection System (ROPS), complete with seat belt, comes standard for operator protection in the case of accidental rollovers and tipovers. In situations where sufficient vertical clearance is not available, such as loading on an enclosed trailer, the ROPS can be temporarily unlocked and folded down.

Deluxe Suspension Seat

Deluxe suspension seat on 20 kW (27 hp) models improves operator comfort and reduces operator fatique when mowing for prolonged periods of time.

The industry's toughest spindle assembly

Rigorously tested to ensure it can survive impacts that would destroy lesser spindles. The cast iron housing, with a massive 24 cm diametre base, absorbs impact loads and distributes them across a broader area of the robust deck shell. Tapered roller bearings last up to six times longer than ball bearings.

Patented Adjustable Baffle

Allows operator to achieve maximum cutting performance by fine-tuning deck to conquer changing conditions, unique job sites or different times of the season. In extreme conditions, the baffle can be opened in order to conserve power and achieve faster mowing speeds. In less demanding conditions, the baffle can be closed to yield micro-sized particles and maximize discharge velocity.

High-performance Discharge Chute

High performance 8 mm rubber discharge chute allows for close trimming without damaging chute or landscape structures. Patented design provides excptional clipping dispersion.

Exclusive TURBO FORCE Deck

High-capacity TURBO FORCE decks deliver unsurpassed strength, a superior cut, and increased productivity in extreme mowing conditions. Equipped with a patent-pending adjustable discharge baffle, TURBO FORCE decks can be fine-tuned in order to conquer changing turf conditions. Not available on models 74280TE & 74281TE.

Comprehensive Warranty*

1 year Limited; 2 year Engine, Hydraulics, Electric Clutch & Deck Shell; 3 year Spindle Assembly.**

**Third year parts only.

Utility Bags

Toro® utility bags for riding mowers are ideal for holding trash, tools, keys, and cell phones. They keep landscaping pros on the go and productive by transporting the essentials they need to get the job done. The lightweight yet durable bags are constructed of heavy-duty mesh fabric to keep contents secure, visible and within reach. They're available in over-the-seat and arm-rest styles and in sizes that match varying machines…and mowing needs.

Optional Blades

In addition to the high sail blade, which comes standard on Z Master Z590 Series mowers, additional 6 mm (1/4") blades are available to match regional and seasonal mowing conditions. Options include Recycler and Atomic mulching blades, medium sail Bahai blades, and low sail sand blades.

Operator-Controlled Discharge Chute-OCD

Landscape friendly rubber discharge chute provides complete control of clippings. With three discharge settings, from wide open to blocked, the ODCD will put the clippings where you want them and not in beds, streets, etc. The integral design allows the discharge chute to remain in place and on the machine, reducing the risk of personal injury and property damage.

Deluxe Rider Cover

Toro's zero turn rider cover helps operators protect their mower - and their investment in it - by shielding the machine from the elements. The all-black cover is made from a 600 Denier polyester fabric that's waterproof as well as abrasion- and tear-resistant. Perfect as an overnight cover for mowers stored outside, it's also ideal for offering longer-term protection during winter storage. The vented design helps promote air movement around the mower to prevent build-up of harmful heat or moisture. The rider cover fits most styles of Z mowers.

Recycler® Mulching Kits

152 cm and 183 cm (60" and 72") Recycler mulching kits deliver the industry's finest mulching performance and reduce mowing time up to 38% vs. bagging.

Striping Kits

The optional striping kit is easily installed and provides a premium "ball park" after-cut appearance.
