Zero‑Turns To Make Star Turn As Kubota Return To SALTEX, Stand C070

A stop by the Kubota stand is always a must for visitors to SALTEX, and this year should be no different, with a vast array of industry‑leading compact tractors, RTV’s and mowing solutions taking centre stage on stand C070. A particular highlight promises to be the expanded Kubota zero‑turn range, with the new Z4‑541 on show in the UK for the very first time.

The Z4‑541 features a robust 54” steel fabricated deck, 24hp petrol engine and 360‑degree turning capability to effortlessly navigate obstacles and deliver exceptional balance and stability for mowing tasks on uneven terrain. It is equipped with side discharge, with an optional Operator Controlled Discharge Chute (OCDC) enabling operators to temporarily shut the chute to prevent clippings from ejecting onto pathways. A mulching kit for the Z4‑541 is also available.

Launched in July, the Z4‑541 is the latest addition to Kubota’s zero‑turn line‑up, which combines unbeatable manoeuvrability with a range of chassis sizes, power sources and discharge options to suit all domestic, pro‑consumer and professional applications. The Z4‑541 will be on display at the NEC alongside the ZD rear discharge and Ze – Kubota’s electric zero‑turn range – launched at SALTEX 2023 and making a return this October.

Visitors can also expect to see the FC3‑221E from Kubota’s broadened FC mower range. Small, agile and adaptable, the mower deck on the new 22hp FC3‑221E features two pairs of blades per rotor for a finer cut, while the expansive 600‑litre grass collector means operators can cover significant areas before it requires emptying. This makes the versatile centre‑collect machine ideal for various applications including residential gardens, schools, recreational areas and large‑scale sports facilities, or adapted to feature a front mounted brush to suit the maintenance of artificial sports surfaces.

Kubota will be joined once again on stand C070 by Baroness and their range of mowers and implements. Together, the two brands showcase the very best of Japanese excellence and provide sports turf and green space managers with a complete maintenance solution.
