Ease of work in four work positions.

[ZM-3708]
  • The mower can be set on four positions, i.e., the right-hand side, rear right-hand side, backside, and rear left-hand side of the driver's seat, which allows a wide variety of work, such as grass mowing and transfer and the removal of the mower.
  • If the arm is set on the driver's seat, the mowing part will be just beside the driver's seat, which makes it easy to check the operation and obstacles from the driver's seat and ensures comfortable long operating hours. Moreover, the right-hand rear position allows work with the maximum reach.
