Industry Leading Warranty
The BOB-CAT XRZ Pro RS has a 6 year / 1,200 hour limited warranty. Unlike other zero turn mower warranties, this covers warranty costs of parts and labour for the full period – unlike other brands in which only parts cost is covered after just three years.
Performance and Durability
The BOB-CAT XRZ Pro RS comes standard with tough, commercial grade serviceable ZT-3400 transaxles, powerful, smooth-running FX691V or FX730V Kawasaki engines and a productive top mowing speed of 16km/h. A quick lift foot pedal lets you lift the deck conveniently right from the seat for easy transport over obstacles. It has a one piece, welded steel frame – unlike the bolted or riveted cee-section frame many other zero turns have.
Comfort and control
Adjustable, oversized controls with a dampening feature reduce hand and arm fatigue and provide steady control even on bumpy ground. 23-inch drive wheels smooth the ride and provide sure-footed traction. A premium, fully adjustable high back suspension seat is standard for all-day mowing comfort. Simplly dial in your weight and the seat sets at a neutral range to keep you floating over bumpy ground. No more sore backs!
Cut Quality
The XRZ Pro features BOB-CAT's patented TufDeck Pro professional mowing system, and features an oversized polymer discharge chute for efficient dispersal of clippings. The patented Double-Wave Baffle System stands grass up with maximum vacuum and lift and is ideal on New Zealand lawns which are often wet and cut low. Fast blade tip speeds over 18,000 fpm slice lifted grass cleanly for a smooth, even finish.
The cut quality in New Zealand is greatly improved thanks to the adjustable Deck Lip, and the Double Wave Baffles, which make this mower more capable of mowing in our long, wet conditions.
Reduced maintenance and easy service
The ZT-3400 drive system has fewer potential leak points for reliability. The open frame design and flip up floor plate makes access to key components easy. A flexible oil drain hose and easy to reach filters and dipstick makes oil changes simple.
Award Winning Design
