What the specs work out to

Figures MowerFacts computes from Kubota’s own numbers — not published by the manufacturer.

Mowing time

  • ¼ acre4 min 3 min
  • ½ acre9 min 6 min
  • 1 acre18 min 12 min
  • 2 acres35 min 25 min
  • 5 acres1 h 28 min 1 h 2 min
  • 10 acres2 h 57 min 2 h 4 min

About 18 min per acre at 3.39 acres/hour, mowing at 7.0 mph. The second figure is at the published 10.0 mph top speed (4.85 acres/hour) — faster than anyone really mows. About 23.1 acres per tank.

Weight & hauling

  • Machine weight904 lb
  • + 6×12 trailer900 lb
  • Towed weight1,804 lb
  • single-axle 3,500 lbCarries it, 1,696 lb spare
  • tandem-axle 7,000 lbCarries it, 5,196 lb spare

Needs a single-axle 3,500 lb trailer and a vehicle rated to tow at least 1,804 lb.

Gate & trailer fit

  • 32 in gateToo wide
  • 36 in gateToo wide
  • 48 in gateToo wide

Needs at least 66 in of clearance (estimated).

Power & run time

  • Power per deck inch0.4 hp/in
  • Run time per tank~6.8 h

Mowing times assume 3.39 acres/hour: deck width x 7.0 mph at 80% efficiency, which allows for overlap, turns and trimming. 7.0 mph is 70% of the 10.0 mph top speed Kubota publishes - almost nobody mows flat out. The "at top speed" figure is the same sum at 10.0 mph, shown so you can see it.

Fit uses the deck width plus 6 in for the discharge chute, because Kubota doesn't publish an overall width — measure before buying if a gate is tight.

Towed weight adds a 900 lb allowance for a 6x12 open utility trailer to Kubota's published machine weight. Your trailer's own weight is on its VIN plate. Tongue weight, axle placement and your vehicle's tow rating are still yours to check — this is the load, not a loading plan.

Run time assumes a typical 1 gal/hour burn at working load; real consumption varies with engine, load and cut.

Kubota Z421KWTNC-60 questions

What size deck is on the Kubota Z421KWTNC-60?

The Kubota Z421KWTNC-60 has a 60-inch (1524 mm) cutting deck.

What engine is in the Kubota Z421KWTNC-60?

The Kubota Z421KWTNC-60 is powered by a Kawasaki FS730V, 726 cc, 24 hp. Horsepower is the manufacturer's own rating.

How much does the Kubota Z421KWTNC-60 weigh?

The Kubota Z421KWTNC-60 weighs 904 lb (410.1 kg) as specified by Kubota.

What size trailer do I need for the Kubota Z421KWTNC-60?

At 904 lb, the Kubota Z421KWTNC-60 on a typical 6x12 open utility trailer (about 900 lb empty) is roughly 1,804 lb of towed weight. That is within a single-axle 3,500 lb trailer, and your tow vehicle needs to be rated for at least 1,804 lb. Tongue weight, axle placement and your own trailer's empty weight still have to be checked — this is the arithmetic, not a loading plan.

How fast is the Kubota Z421KWTNC-60?

Top ground speed is 10 mph. With its 60-inch deck that works out to about 4.85 acres per hour at 80% efficiency — allowing for overlap, turns and trimming.

How long does the Kubota Z421KWTNC-60 take to mow an acre?

About 12 min per acre, from its 60-inch deck at 10 mph and 80% efficiency — roughly 4.85 acres an hour, so five acres is about 1 h 2 min. Rough or obstacle-heavy ground takes longer; this is deck width times ground speed, not a timed test.

The Kubota Z421KWTNC-60 holds 6.8 gal (25.7 L) of fuel.
