Compare Mowers

1. ZT2000 Zero-Turn Mower has a HG ZT-2800 Hydrostatic Transaxles transmission; RIDGELINE 48 has a Hydrostatic transmission. The transmission grade tracks duty rating and speed. Grade names are each maker's own and are not comparable across brands.
2. ZT2000 Zero-Turn Mower has a 42 in (1,067 mm) deck; RIDGELINE 48 has a 48 in (1,219 mm) deck, a 6 in difference. Deck width sets how much grass each pass covers. Mowing time also depends on ground speed, turns and obstacles, so a wider deck alone does not fix the job's length. Time both decks on your own lawn ›
3. ZT2000 Zero-Turn Mower holds 3.8 gal (14.4 L) of fuel; RIDGELINE 48 holds 4.5 gal (17 L) of fuel, a 0.7 gal 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.
4. ZT2000 Zero-Turn Mower has a 21.5 hp engine; RIDGELINE 48 has a 22 hp engine, a 0.5 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. ZT2000 Zero-Turn Mower cuts from 1.5 in (38 mm) to 4.6 in (117 mm); RIDGELINE 48 cuts from 1.5 in (38 mm) to 4.5 in (114 mm). The cut-height range is the shortest and tallest cut the deck offers. Most lawns are kept well inside it.

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.
