Engine and Power

22 HP Kohler 7000 Series V-Twin OHV Engine

The Cub Cadet Ultima ZTS1 42 is equipped with a powerful 22 HP Kohler® 7000 Series 747cc V-twin OHV engine. This V-twin overhead-valve engine is specified for smooth and reliable performance across residential mowing tasks. With 747cc of displacement, the engine provides the power needed to drive both the cutting deck and the dual hydrostatic transmissions.

Steering and Control

Synchro-Steer 4-Wheel Control System

Synchro-Steer™ 4-wheel control technology is fitted to the Cub Cadet Ultima ZTS1 42 to provide enhanced stability during operation. The system supports straight-line tracking, which is particularly useful when mowing on slopes of up to 20 degrees. This steering design helps the operator maintain control on both flat terrain and sloped yards.

Dual Hydrostatic Transmissions

Dual hydrostatic transmissions deliver responsive control of ground speed and direction. The transmissions allow forward speeds of up to 7 MPH and reverse speeds of up to 3.5 MPH. This drive system works with the Synchro-Steer™ system to give the operator precise handling around the lawn.

Zero-Turn Manoeuvrability

Zero-turn capability allows the Cub Cadet Ultima ZTS1 42 to make precise turns around landscaping features and obstacles. The combination of zero-turn steering and the 4-wheel Synchro-Steer™ system is designed to maintain a smooth, even cut while manoeuvring in tight areas.

Cutting Deck

42-Inch AeroForce Fabricated Deck

The 42-inch AeroForce™ fabricated cutting deck is built for durability and cutting performance. The fabricated construction provides a rugged deck structure. The deck is designed to produce a clean, even cut with reduced clumping of clippings across the cutting width.

Improved Airflow Design

An improved airflow design within the cutting system helps create finer clippings. Finer clippings contribute to a more uniform lawn finish. The airflow design works with the 42-inch deck to distribute clippings evenly across the lawn surface.
