Introduction

Toro Z380 Zero-Turn Mower

The Toro Z380 is a zero-turn mower produced between 2005 and 2006, designed primarily for residential lawn maintenance. This machine belongs to the Z420 series and focuses on maneuverability and efficiency for medium to large property owners.

Engine and Power

The Z380 is powered by a single-cylinder, air-cooled Briggs & Stratton 280H07 gasoline engine. It features a displacement of 465 cc (28.4 ci) and delivers a gross power output of 14 hp (10.4 kW). The engine is paired with a 12-volt electric starter system for reliable ignition.

Chassis and Tires

The tractor is designed with an open operator station for visibility and ease of access. It rides on lawn and turf tires, with 10x4 tires at the front and 18x6.5 tires at the rear to provide stability and minimize turf damage during turns.
