Compare Mowers
List prices are the manufacturer’s published figures, re-checked daily; they exclude tax, freight and dealer setup.
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.

- Z560X weighs 1,309 lbs (593.8 kg); Z965M EFIZTrak Zero-Turn Mower weighs 1,415 lbs (641.8 kg), a 106 lbs difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What Z560X's weight means for a trailer ›
- Z560X has a 31 hp engine; Z965M EFIZTrak Zero-Turn Mower has a 33 hp engine, a 2 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.
- Z560X holds 12 gal (45.4 L) of fuel; Z965M EFIZTrak Zero-Turn Mower holds 11.5 gal (43.5 L) of fuel, a 0.5 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.
