EXMARK LAZER Z S-SERIES WITH SUSPENDED OPERATOR PLATFORM The Exmark Lazer Z S-Series commercial zero-turn mower returns with an available suspended operator platform designed to reduce vibration and fatigue during long shifts. The platform uses three coil-over hydraulic dampers, and can be adjusted without tools to match operator weight or ride preference. Exmark’ s Iso- Mount seat isolation system adds controlled lateral and vertical movement to improve comfort. Equipped with a 60-inch Ultra- Cut Series 4 deck and a Kawasaki FX801V engine, the mower is designed for high-output commercial mowing. Maintenance demands are reduced with four annual grease points and sealed bearing spindle assemblies intended to limit in-season service. The configuration focuses on productivity and operator comfort while supporting efficient operation on large properties.
