The ZT5000, Bobcat's latest addition to their line of zero-turn mowers, is designed to cater to the needs of lawn care professionals and homeowners seeking professional-grade cutting results. This powerful mower is equipped with a robust 23.5-hp Kawasaki® engine and a generous 7.8-gallon fuel tank, allowing for speeds of up to 11mph and extended operating time. This translates to more efficient and effective mowing sessions.

One of the standout features of the ZT5000 is its Hydro-Gear® ZT-3800 hydrostatic transaxles, ensuring smooth and steady power delivery. This not only enhances control but also elevates mowing performance.


The AirFX™ cutting system with a deep-deck design and air-gap baffles is another hallmark of this mower. It enhances vacuum strength, causing grass blades to stand tall and resulting in a cleaner and more professional cut. The cutting decks are available in sizes ranging from 36 inches to 72 inches wide. The ZT5000 is built to last, with steel-fabricated spindles and a tubed-steel frame, offering the strength needed to tackle even the most demanding workloads. You can choose between two cutting deck sizes: 52-inch or 61-inch decks.


But that's not all; the ZT5000 also boasts a range of additional features, including:

  • 24-inch drive tires for ample ground clearance, ensuring a smooth ride with minimal ground disturbances.
  • Conveniently located tie-down points for easy trailering and transportation.
  • Ergonomic controls are designed to enhance operator comfort and reduce fatigue.
  • Tool-free oil drain for quick and hassle-free oil changes.
  • Various optional features such as a grass-collection system, laser-edge blades, grass-striping kit, mulching kit, and light kit.
