Brillion, Wis. – Gravely introduces the ZT X, an all-new zero-turn lawn mower bred from commercial DNA but designed for the homeowner. With fabricated deck designs in either 42-inch or 52-inch sizes, the ZT X incorporates enhancements that improve cut quality, durability and ease of use.

The newly designed, fully fabricated cutting deck is similar to the decks found on Gravely’s commercial line of zero-turns, and was designed to deliver an un-matched quality of cut. The wide discharge opening allows for even dispersal of clipping without clumping, while the constant tension deck belt system increases the life of the belt and reduces the need for adjustments.

The fully welded, tubular steel frame sets the ZT X apart from its competition. While other residential mowers incorporate multi-piece frames, the ZT X is built on a single piece – welded, not bolted, at every joint for added strength and stability.

The ZT X was built with operator comfort in mind, integrating features that are easy to use, such as the dial height of cut selection. Other considerations like the plush high-back operator seat with armrests, fully adjustable control arms, foot-operated deck lift, cup holder, storage compartments and advanced vibration isolation were added to increase operator efficiency, while also keeping comfort a high priority.

All models are available with a rugged KOHLER 7000 Series Engine with Smart-Choke technology and Pro Filtration package. With Smart-Choke, there’s no need to choke the engine or set the throttle position.

“The ZT X was designed to include several features of the quality, commercial-grade mowers that Gravely is known for, but with the residential homeowner in mind,” said Ariens Company Product Marketing Manager Jeralyn Braun. “With the machine’s fully-fabricated deck and welded, tubular steel frame, it’s built with Gravely toughness to tackle any job, big or small.”

The ZT X was also designed following Gravely’s new visual brand language, which showcases crisp, chiseled features, broad, bowed surfaces and prominent protective elements.

Models start at a manufacturer advertised price of $3,499 USD. The unit comes backed with a threeyear limited consumer warranty and also includes a five-year limited warranty on the frame and deck shell. For more information visit www.ZTX.Gravely.com.

A full slate of accessories is also available for the ZT X, including a powered two-bucket bagger, mulching kit, LED headlight kit and full range of tow-behind accessories.
