I\'m planning to buy a cub cadet ztr but...

I'm planning to buy the new cub cadet z force for about 4 600$ but I have a question. I need a bagging system to collect grass but also leaf. Is this ztr attachment comes with a blower or a fan to help leaf and grass to go in the bags??

Thank you

Are you looking at the new Z-Force with a 48" fabricated deck?

They only carry the RZT, these machines are rated to cut about 1.5 acres. If you have more than that you need to visit your local Cub Cadet dealer or TSC and look into a Z-Force...the RZT's bigger brother.

Well you will love it if you have only 1/4 acre to cut. It is a ZTR so it does have a true floating deck and pivoting fron axle. It will follow your ground a lot better than any ridding mower and you should be well pleased with the cut. I would however, suggest you try to purchase from your local dealer if at all possible.

i bought the z force 44 last year, and love it. I have the bagger too, it works ok. But when you get into the higher wet grass it tends to clogg up. But with nice dry grass works great. The only problem that i have had was that the starter has been acting funny. When you turn the key you just get a click, after you do it a few times it turns. i have brought it to the local dealer, but it still does it.

Sounds like a bad ground. Check for a loose connection at each end of the cable. Next, try taking off the cable and polish it and the terminal up a little. Possibly look at the same things on the + side too.

Good Luck!
