Hey buddy, thanks for posting this review. 2 year later what do you think? How was the grass clumping, did you get it to drive straight? Has everything held up on it?

Got the ZT1 42 75hours cutting 15 yards week. I'm normally cutting Fescue at 3-3.25. Does great for what I need.6ft also very comfortable for me. I also sat on JD and Toro. Nice video

Adjust your forward stops first for straight tracking. Then, loosen your two bolts on each control lever and see how much play there is for adjustment. Shove your control handles into a full shop towel roll at the neutral position to line them up and hold them there while you retighten the bolts. You can get them perfectly in alignment with these tips.

Been looking at these for afortability. Been hearing alot about bad deck vibration. What's your opinion now that you had it all summer? Also we have a semi stedp,not too steep hill, do you mow hills with it.
@HANDYMANHEADQUARTERS

I have not noticed a deck vibration at all. I would assume if that is happening it may be off balance. I only mow our ditch which isnt too bad. They do say only rolling hills. So it if is too steep i could see the tires slipping.

I just bought my ZT2 50 used w/ 71 hours. There was initial confusion about the 2 transmission reservoirs. I went by the dealer and they told me I never need to fill or touch them, only to lookout if the fill was dark then would need serviceI now wonder where the fuel filter is. I'm not breaking it out for another few weeks which is when we move into the new house. A lot of great questions and tips here so it helps...
