Bobcat ZT6000e - 52" Deck - Zero-Turn Riding Mower

With significantly fewer parts, no gas and its high voltage maintenance-free battery, the ZT6000e costs considerably less to operate than its gas-powered equivalents.

There's no combustion engine parts that will ever need to be repaired or replaced. There's no belts and no need for gas refills. Because the ZT6000e is a fully electric powered machine, there are fewer components that can fail and lead to downtime. You'll also spend significantly less time maintaining the all-electric ZT6000e and more time cutting grass. Aside from routine recharges, the lithium-ion battery requires no maintenance for the life of the machine.

On a single charge, the powerful 20.4-kWh lithium battery supports up to 8 hours* of runtime in commercial mower applications. The ZT6000e can be fully recharged in 6.3 hours with a 240-volt connection, or 12.6 hours using a 120-volt connection.

Apart from routine recharge cycles, the powerful lithium-ion battery requires no maintenance for the life of the machine.

Producing no emissions, the ZT6000e enhances the working environment for the operator and bystanders alike. These machines can also generate new business among a growing number of businesses, homeowners and other potential customers who choose to support eco-friendly practices and a more sustainable future. Government agencies and businesses are increasingly adopting environmental, social and governance principles that give priority to sustainable business practices.

The all-electric drivetrain eliminates the noise created by gas-powered engines. Bystanders will appreciate the noticeable noise reduction, especially when the mowing deck is not engaged.

At the heart of the ZT6000e is its powerful 20.4-kWh, lithium-ion battery. On a single charge, it supports up to 8 hours* of runtime in commercial mowing applications. The ZT6000e can be fully recharged in 6.3 hours with a 240-volt connection, or 12.6 hours using a 120-volt connection.

Three powerful electric motors provide high and low blade speeds to make quick work of both heavy and light mowing conditions.                                                                            

61-Inch deck blade speeds: 

• High: 18,500 ft/min.
• Low: 17,000 ft/min.

52-inch deck blade speeds:

• High: 18,500 ft/min.
• Low: 17,000 ft/min.

The ZT6000e features an on-board charger with a standardized connection point that accommodates either 240-volt or 120-volt connections.

The AirFX™ cutting deck allows you to deliver a cut above the rest. It's deep profile and bullnose design creates a powerful vacuum that lifts the grass to the blade for a razor-sharp, uniform cut and a professional finish. AirFX cutting technology accelerates airflow under the deck and aggressively shoots clippings out the extra-large discharge chute.

Bullnose Design

The robust bullnose design provides optimal durability while lifting the grass and increasing the vacuum effect.

Adjustable Front Lip

The deck's adjustable front lip optimizes your cutting capability for all kinds of mowing conditions and grass types.

Deep-Deck Design With Patent-Pending Air-Gap Baffles

The deep-deck design and patent-pending Air-Gap baffles create powerful airflow throughout the cutting deck. This allows the cutting system to efficiently move the clippings out from the extra-large discharge chute and evenly disperse them on the ground. You can tackle tough mowing and get a cleaner deck at the end of the workday.

Polymer Discharge Chute

The flexible, molded chute is constructed for even clipping dispersal and improved deck cleanliness.

Ground speeds of 10.9 mph, along with 24-inch drive tires, help you cover big and small lots in less time.

Change the blade speed on the go to meet the mowing conditions, get more mowing done in less time and leave behind a quality cut. The ZT6000e features high and low blade speeds to meet the mowing conditions. Low blade speeds allow you to conserve power during lighter mowing tasks.                                                                                          

61-Inch deck blade speeds: 

• High: 18,500 ft/min.
• Low: 17,000 ft/min.

52-inch deck blade speeds:

• High: 18,500 ft/min.
• Low: 17,000 ft/min.

The lithium-ion battery powers two heavy-duty planetary gearboxes which automatically engage and disengage the parking brake depending on the lap bar position.

With three drive response modes, operators can choose how the ZT6000e responds to the movement of the lap bars. Whether you like a more gradual response; quick, instant feedback; or a response somewhere in between, three drive response modes put you in control.

The three drive response settings are:

• Drive Response 1 provides a smooth responsive reaction to lap bar movement. With a top speed of 7.0 mph (Drive only) 
• Drive Response 2 is the default setting and provides a normal responsive reaction to lap bar movement. With a top speed of 9.0 mph (Drive only)
• Drive Response 3 provides a quick, responsive reaction to lap bar movement. With a top speed of 10.9 mph (Drive only)

The large, 24-inch, tires are designed specifically for zero turn mowers, providing exceptional maneuverability, traction and a light footprint. They offer great performance on a variety of surfaces, including slopes and rough terrain. These drive tires deliver a smooth ride and all the maneuverability you need to mow around obstacles in your path.

The ZT6000e features a powerful 20.4-kWh lithium-ion battery that requires no maintenance.

The AirFX cutting deck, with high-strength die-cast aluminum spindles, provides the rugged durability you need for nonstop mowing productivity.

The rugged AirFX cutting deck is built from 10-gauge steel with and 3- and 7-gauge reinforcements to keep you on the lawn and out of the repair shop.

When the battery needs to be recharged, (below 2% state of charge) the ZT6000e automatically cuts power to the deck, giving the operator approximately 30 minutes of drive time to arrange for a recharge.

Dampers feature helm joints for more durability and less free play.

The front caster wheels are built tough to keep your mower rolling smoothly and uniformly over the ground for consistent, efficient results. Optional no-flat caster wheels are also available.

The ZT6000e frame is built with heavy-duty, dual-tubed steel framing that provides maximum durability to keep you on the job and out of the shop.

Made from heavy-duty steel to protect mower components, the bumper provides simple access to maintenance items.
