PROTECTIVE ZONE AROUND THE OPERATOR IS PROVIDED BY THE ROLLOVER PROTECTIVE STRUCTURE (ROPS)

Getting on and off is easy with the flat operator platform.
Convenient-to-use controls are located close to the operator.
Operator controls are color coded and designed for easy identification and operation.

The ROPS and seat belt work in conjunction to provide a protective zone around the operator:
It reduces the operators risk of being crushed under the vehicle should it overturn.
In most situations, the ROPS limits the overturn to little more than 90 degrees.
When used with a seatbelt, the ROPS is very effective in preventing deaths and serious injuries. Use of the seat belt is recommended when operating with ROPS in the upright position.

OPTIONAL MICHELIN X TWEEL TURF AIRLESS RADIAL TIRE TECHNOLOGY ON THE Z740R FOR EXTRA RELIABILITY AND RIDE QUALITY
Michelin is a world leader in tire manufacturing and technology. This airless radial tire solution gives additional advantages.

Advantages of using the Michelin X Tweel Turf tires include:
More comfortable ride because of less bounce.
Mowing performance is improved.
Rutting is reduced because the Michelin X Tweel Turf has more support across the surface for improved flotation and better ground contact.
Unique energy transfer within the poly-resin spokes reduces the bounce associated with pneumatic tires.
Excellent curb climbing is possible due to the Michelin X Tweel Turf construction and flexibility.
More consistent cut quality is achieved because inconsistent tire pressure is eliminated.
Uptime is improved.
1. The exclusive technology eliminates downtime and associated cost due to flat or damaged tires.
2. Punctures and sidewall damage no longer result in downtime.
Cost of operation is reduced.
1. Cost of repairs and maintenance is reduced.
2. One single unit replaces the current tire, wheel, and valve assembly.
3. There is no need for complex tire-mounting equipment.
4. No need to spend time checking and optimizing tire pressure.
5. The need to purchase and stock plug kits and spare tires is eliminated.
6. The tire tread will last up to three times longer than current pneumatic tires because automotive-grade rubber is used for the tread.
