Powered by the legendary 21.5 HP Kawasaki® FR Series V-Twin engine, this mower is prized for its smooth power delivery and long-term mechanical reliability. The defining feature of the Z242F is the 42-inch ClearCut™ Fabricated Deck, which utilizes heavy-duty welded steel construction and advanced airflow technology to provide superior grass lift and a manicured finish that stamped decks simply cannot match.
Structural resilience and operator convenience are at the core of the Z242F Special Edition design.

It utilizes dual Hydro-Gear® ZT-2200 transaxles for maintenance-free, precise maneuvering around complex landscaping. Please Note: This specific unit is a Scratch and Dent model, meaning it may possess minor cosmetic imperfections such as surface scratches or small paint chips. These blemishes are strictly visual and do not affect the mower’s industrial-grade performance or structural integrity.
