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’s different? The 5 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- ZG332LP-72 uses a Kubota WG972-G-E3-ZG-1 engine; F3690 uses a Kubota V1505 engine. The engine maker builds the engine; the mower maker chooses the model, rating and fit, so the badge alone does not settle output or longevity.
- ZG332LP-72 has a Integral Type HST, Shaft Driven transmission; F3690 has a HST transmission. The transmission grade tracks duty rating and speed. Grade names are each maker's own and are not comparable across brands.
- ZG332LP-72 runs on Petrol; F3690 runs on Diesel. Fuel type sets what you buy and store; it is not a measure of power.
- ZG332LP-72 has a 962 cc (58.7 ci) engine; F3690 has a 1,498 cc (91.4 ci) engine, a 536 cc difference. Displacement is the engine's size, not its output. A larger engine is not necessarily a more powerful one.
- ZG332LP-72 has Adjustable Dual Lever Steering drive; F3690 has 4WD drive.
