Cub Cadet Ultima ZTS2 50in Zero Turn Mower – Steering Wheel

Description

Delivering true 20-degree hillside stability, the Cub Cadet Ultima ZTS2 50in steering wheel zero turn mower conquers steep rolling terrain without front caster slide. Traditional lap-bar zero-turn mowers lose downhill steering traction when front casters drift on damp incline turf, forcing operators to slow down or risk slide-offs. This 50-inch machine incorporates Synchro-Steer steering wheel technology that synchronizes steerable front wheels with commercial-grade Hydro-Gear ZT-2800 transaxles, delivering positive hill-holding stability.

The commercial-duty Hydro-Gear ZT-2800 transaxles feature external spin-on oil filters and steel cut gears, delivering positive wheel torque up to 7.5 MPH forward transport speed. A fabricated 11-gauge AeroForce steel cutting deck withstands impacts from hidden tree roots and rocks, while the deep deck profile pulls air upward to discharge grass clippings uniformly without windrowing. The foot-operated mechanical deck lift allows operators to raise the deck effortlessly when clearing road curbs and gravel driveways.
