Cub Cadet Ultima Series ZT1 42 Zero-Turn Riding Lawn Mower
The Cub Cadet Ultima Series ZT1 42 is engineered to deliver professional-quality mowing performance, exceptional maneuverability, and long-lasting durability. Designed for homeowners who want the speed and precision of a zero-turn mower, the ZT1 42 combines a powerful engine, dual hydrostatic transmissions, and a rugged steel frame to make lawn maintenance faster and more enjoyable.
Built to provide a clean, even cut with minimal clumping, the ZT1 42 features a 42-inch cutting deck that efficiently handles residential properties up to 2 acres in size. Its advanced cutting system produces a professional-looking finish while maintaining excellent airflow and grass dispersion.
Power is supplied by a high-performance 22 HP / 725cc twin-cylinder engine, delivering the strength needed to tackle thick grass and challenging mowing conditions. The twin-cylinder design ensures smooth operation, reliable starting, and consistent power throughout the mowing season.
The mower’s dual Hydro-Gear EZT-2200 hydrostatic transmissions provide smooth, responsive control and allow forward speeds up to 7 MPH and reverse speeds up to 3.5 MPH, helping you cover more ground in less time.
Built on a durable 2-inch x 2-inch continuous tubular steel frame, the ZT1 42 is designed for years of dependable service. The frame is protected by Cub Cadet’s corrosion-resistant e-coating process, helping defend against rust, moisture, and everyday wear.
For enhanced operator comfort, the mower features a premium 18-inch high-back seat with advanced polymer suspension technology, reducing fatigue during extended mowing sessions.
