Cub Cadet Ultima ZT1 54in Zero Turn Mower

Description

Cutting up to 4 acres per hour, the Cub Cadet Ultima ZT1 54in zero turn mower powers through thick estate turf without engine bog. Suburban property owners face constant frustration when lightweight stamped decks scalp undulating lawns or choke in dense morning grass. This 54-inch zero-turn machine combines an 11-gauge fabricated AeroForce steel deck with a commercial-grade 24HP V-twin engine, delivering clean turf striping at forward speeds up to 7 MPH.

Dual Hydro-Gear EZT hydrostatic transaxles provide responsive steering control, tracking straight along property borders and executing clean zero-radius pivots around landscaping beds. The deep fabricated deck pulls air upward, lifting limp grass blades for a crisp, level cut across manicured turf. A convenient dial-operated cut height selector paired with a foot-assist pedal allows operators to adjust cutting height across fifteen distinct positions with minimal physical effort.
