LRX980EKC726Q1 Features & Benefits
UltraCut Series 6 Deck
Our full-floating side-discharge deck design uses dual-capture anti-scalp rollers and double-row sealed bearings for ultimate durability, with splined blade drivers to stop bolt tightening from impacts. Plus, our patented idler arm bearing design needs only annual service. (The 96-inch Flex Wing deck is a rear-discharge design.)
Vanguard Oil Guard System
With oil change intervals of 500 hours, the Vanguard Oil Guard system increases mower uptime and decreases maintenance. Available on select Lazer Z X-Series models, the Oil Guard system also decreases engine oil temperature by 20-30 degrees.
Adapt Your Cut
Adjust deck rake quickly and easily without tools, from the operator seat, to optimize cut quality and performance in a variety of turf types and conditions. Adapt is particularly useful when mowing in wet, overgrown, or lush conditions, or stemmy grasses and weeds.
Easy to Service
The new Lazer Z X-Series is easier than ever to service, thanks to a rear engine guard that removes with just four bolts. Plus, a redesigned seat mount enables easier access to the engine and hydro drive components. Tools-free deck and hydro belt installation further eases maintenance.
Maximum Productivity
With a combination of increased power, faster control response, larger cutting decks and a high-capacity hydro drive system, Lazer Z X-Series delivers maximum productivity.
Superior Operator Comfort
Our new ergonomically-advanced operator seat features long-travel suspension and our exclusive iso-mount seat isolation. This seating system increases productivity by reducing operator fatigue, so each worker can work stronger, longer.
