John Deere is unveiling two new ZTrak™ Zero-Turn Mowers: the diesel Z994R with a 72-inch deck; and the Z955R EFI. The Z955R is equipped with an Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) engine and is designed to provide increased productivity and fuel efficiency. The Z955R, with a 60-inch (152.4 cm) side-discharge deck, is powered by a 29-HP (21.6 kW) EFI engine.
