The John Deere Z710A is a zero-turn mower from the Z720A series, manufactured between 2010 and 2012 in Fuquay-Varina, North Carolina, USA. Designed for landscape maintenance, this machine combines a high-output gasoline engine with a hydrostatic transmission to provide precise maneuverability.
Engine and Power
The mower is powered by a Kohler CV680 gasoline engine, an air-cooled, 2-cylinder V-Twin unit with a displacement of 673 cc (41.1 ci). It delivers 23 hp (17.2 kW) and features a vertical crankshaft. Starting is achieved via an electric starter system operating on a 12-volt battery.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The Z710A utilizes a Tuff Torq hydrostatic transmission, allowing for infinite forward and reverse speed adjustment without shifting gears. Power is delivered to the rear wheels via a two-wheel drive system, supported by power steering to ensure effortless control during operation.
Mowing Deck and PTO
The machine is compatible with 48-inch or 54-inch mower decks. It is equipped with an independent mid-mounted Power Take-Off (PTO) shaft, which is engaged through an electro-magnetic clutch, providing the operator with direct control over the cutting deck's engagement.
Dimensions and Safety
With an overall length of 84 inches (213 cm) and a height of 73 inches (185 cm) with the ROPS extended, the unit weighs approximately 1,092 to 1,107 lbs (495 to 502 kg) depending on the deck size. Operator safety is provided by a two-post folding Roll-Over Protective Structure (ROPS).
Conclusion
