Product Details & Features

  • Optional Michelin X Tweel Airless Radial Tyres

John Deere's commercial zero turn mowers do the job at least 20% faster than a front mower while still producing the great finish you'd expect.

The Z997R combines incredible manoeuvrability, high powered diesel engine and a high-capacity mowing deck to deliver the ultimate mower for commercial applications.

Comfort is key to a good days work, which is why the Z997R comes with the ComfortGlide™ seat as standard plus fully adjustable suspension. Small details ensure whole body comfort throughout the day, such as the adjustable single foot pegs.

Add the optional Michelin X Tweel Turf Airless Radial Tyres and you can forget punctures and uneven tyre pressures. These Radial Tyres are immune to punctures and overcome obstacles such as kerbs with ease. Plus, they're proven to last three times longer than a conventional pneumatic tyre - saving you money and hassle in the long term.
