The 2014 Altoz XC Z line of zero-turn mowers is comprised of high-performance commercial machines, each built with a dedication to excellence and the promise of a precision cut. Delivered by a team of experienced engineers and lawn care professionals, this one-of-a-kind series of high quality mowers is the pinnacle of design and function.

Providing the foundation of this state of the art lineup is the Aero Deck High Output System, a hallmark of all Altoz precision mowers. With quality-engineered performance that features maximum airflow from its design and Gator Mulcher G6 blades, the XC Z line delivers the highest quality precision cut.

The XC Z line sets a new standard for zero-turn mowers with its industry leading 19 mile per hour top speed that headlines the toughness and durability of the mower and delivers increased productivity. It is complemented by an exceptional drive system and clutch that produces 250 ft-lbs of torque along with a heavy-duty deck, deck spindles, front forks, and fork castors, as well as tapered wheel bearings.

Thanks to its unparalleled design, the XC Z line also features the SmarTrak Monitoring System that keeps the operator abreast and informed. With the SmarTrak built-in maintenance reminders, a digital RPM gauge, alarm protection, and an on-board clock, the XC Z line provides worry-free operation.

Every detail was accounted for in the development of the XC Z line’s operator comfort. The TorqFlex Suspension absorbs every bump and instance of ground chatter for the ultimate smooth ride. The Vibration Isolation System also assists operator comfort by isolating the rider from aggravating vibration to allow the operator to mow all day and limit fatigue. Last, and certainly not least, the Engine Isolation System ensures that the operator is comfortable in the most demanding conditions. The seat brings everything together with fully adjustable suspension, lumbar support, tilt adjustment, operator weight adjustment, and more.

“We built the Altoz XC Z lineup for professionals and discerning homeowners who demand the finest quality cut and appreciate a well-designed, quality built mower,” explained Dennis Brazier, Altoz Chief Executive Officer.

“We are committed to building a brand that is a game-changer within the industry,” Brazier continued. “It’s reflected in our attention to detail, such as hiding control linkages inside the frame where they’re out of sight and shielded from debris, fingers, and feet. And it’s highlighted by the superior handling and operator comfort that produces a precision-grade cut.”

With awe-inspiring performance that turns heads and a finished cut that commands admiration, the XC 720 Z, XC 610 Z and XC 540 Z are the premium models in the Altoz lineup. Delivering on four core principles in the development process – precision cut, productivity, toughness, and operator comfort – Altoz has crafted an advanced zero-turn mower that will captivate both commercial and residential consumers the moment they make their first cut.

The 2014 Altoz XC Z commercial line of zero-turn mowers are joined by the XC S, XP S, and XP Z line of Altoz mowers, and are manufactured in Greenbush, Minn. They will be available in select U.S. markets beginning in the fall 2013.
