Compare Mowers

Prices are the recommended retail prices published by each manufacturer’s Australian site, in AUD, as read on the date shown on each model’s page; dealers set the final price.

A side-by-side reference of each model's stated specifications. MowerFacts doesn’t give opinions: where a published, spec-derived rule can separate machines we mark a Data Pick and show the rule; here, read the values and decide what fits your needs.

What each model is built for, from its duty class and key specs. This is a neutral reference — MowerFacts does not rank one model above another.

What’s different? The 5 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
  1. Z460 lists at A$17,999; Z560X lists at A$26,499, a A$8,500 difference. List price is the maker's own figure before tax, freight and dealer setup. Dealers set the final price.
  2. Z460 holds 22.7 L (6 gal) of fuel; Z560X holds 45.4 L (12 gal) of fuel, a 22.7 L difference. Tank size bounds how long a machine runs between stops. Consumption varies with engine, load and speed, so hours per tank are not fixed.
  3. Z460 weighs 373.3 kg (823 lbs); Z560X weighs 593.8 kg (1,309 lbs), a 220.4 kg difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What Z460's weight means for a trailer ›
  4. Z460 has a 23 hp engine; Z560X has a 31 hp engine, a 8 hp difference. Published horsepower is the maker's rating at a stated engine speed. It is a different measure from displacement, and two engines of equal rating can pull differently.
  5. Z460 has a 725.9 cc (44.3 ci) engine; Z560X has a 999.6 cc (61 ci) engine, a 273.7 cc difference. Displacement is the engine's size, not its output. A larger engine is not necessarily a more powerful one.

  • Z460 cuts from 38 mm (1.5 in) to 114 mm (4.5 in); Z560X cuts from 25 mm (1 in) to 127 mm (5 in).
  • Z460 has a published top speed of 10 mph; Z560X has a published top speed of 12 mph, a 2 mph difference.

Calculated by MowerFacts

  • Z460 works out to 1.96 ha/hour; Z560X works out to 2.35 ha/hour, a 0.39 ha/hour difference. Calculated by MowerFacts from deck width and the published top speed at 80% efficiency; it is not a manufacturer figure, and real mowing is slower.

Verified means each manufacturer publishes the figure. A bigger number is only a bigger number; nothing here says which machine is better. The full specification table is below.
