Key Features
Product Features
Description
The IS® 5100Z series of full-sized zero-turn mowers features an impressive complement of comfort, performance and convenience. It features easier service access, more horsepower, improved operator comfort and increased performance, all contributing to lower cost of ownership. We've upgraded our industry-exclusive suspension and Roll Over Protection System (ROPS) as a standard feature. When it comes to commercial lawnmowers, this is truly the ultimate riding and cutting machine.
- ROPS (Roll Over Protection): The high folding point prevents the cross bar from extending beyond the end of the machine, making it easier to back into tight spaces. Standard feature on all Ferris zero-turn mowers.
- Oversized Fuel Tank: Oversized fuel tanks with extra large filler necks allow for longer operation between fills with less chance of spillage during fueling.
- Retractable Seat Belts: Retractable seat belts are less likely to tangle.
- Five Bolt Pattern: Our five bolt pattern wheels are a stronger design than competitive 4-bolt wheels.
- Foot-Operated Deck-Lift: Foot-operated deck-lift takes the effort out of adjusting cut height and allows for handsfree operation while mowing.
- Flex Chute: Flex Chute allows for enhanced discharge of grass clippings. It also reduces damage to obstacles as well as damage to the mower itself. The chute flexes and returns to its original shape.
- Deck: Our super tough deck construction begins with lap welded corners, double top decks that resist warping and cracking and double reinforced side skirts. Finally each deck is sealed with automotive quality powder coat paint.
- Warranty: Engine 2-year manufacturer's warranty. Balance of Machine 2-year limited warranty commercial use, front-to-rear, parts & labor.
- Powder Coat: Automotive quality powder coat paint for lasting shine and durability.
- Synthetic Oil: Synthetic oil in hydraulic systems provides better cooling.
- Adjustable Anti-scalp Rollers: Adjustable, anti-scalp rollers rotate 360 deg. allowing for tight turns and less chance of drag marks and scalping.
- 33.5-hp CAT™ Diesel: 1500 cc, 33.5-hp Caterpillar™ (model 3013C) diesel engine is the best in its class. 6,000 hours expected engine life, legendary reliability.
- Dual Suspension: Dual coil-over-shock rear suspension allows you to cut rougher ground faster with a consistent cut.
- Rear Discharge Deck: Rear-discharge decks, used for special applications, are available in 61 in. or 72 in. cutting widths and disperse grass clippings directly behind the mower.
- Hercules™ Spindles: Hercules™ cast-iron mower spindles with oversized 1 1/4 in. tapered roller bearings, 1 1/4 in. shaft and 10 1/4 in. 6-bolt flange design. Lasts longer, adds strength to the deck and requires minimal maintenance.
- 1/4 in. Frame Rails: Ferris frames are an industry leading 1/4 in. thick. Competitive fixed frame units use thinner 1/8 in. walls.
- Double A-belt & Cast Iron Pulleys: Heavy-duty banded double A-belt & cast iron pulleys handle load capacity better than the competition. Our double A-belt is less stresses than a traditional single belt configuration.
- Gas Gauges: Gas gauges are easy to view from operator compartment.
- Flip Up Seat and Seat Pan: The seat and seat pan flip up to gain access for easy serviceability.
- 5/8 in. Hoses: The 5/8 in. hoses to the hydro pumps, reservoir & filter provide consistent supply and flow. This results in a more reliable system and less “jerkiness”.
- Elevated Hydro Reservoir: The elevated hydro reservoir allows for better draw.
- 1 Qt. Hydro Filter: Larger surface area for better filtration.
- Wrapped High-Pressure Hoses: All high-pressure hoses are wrapped with industrial material so if there is a piercing it will contain fluid to protect operator.
- 3/8 in. Solid Center Wheel: We use strong wheels for less chance of stress cracks.
- High Strength Marine Grade Plated Hardware: ASM rated for severe conditions, provides corrosion resistance.
- Tapered Wheel Bearings: Tapered wheel bearings in castor wheels and mounts keep a longer life than bushings.
- Greasable Bearings: Greasable bearings at all 4 pivot points of deck lift mechanism make for easy serviceability.
- Pillow Block Bearing On Control Mount: The pillow block bearing on the control mount aids in smoother operation… competitors use bushings.
- Cross Link Polyethylene Roto Molded Gas Tank: Cross link polyethylene roto molded gas tanks have nearly a 1/4 in. wall thickness with a drop tube to prevent spillage. Our tanks are better than competitive blow molded tanks.
- Debris Shields: Debris shields, at the base of control handles and sides of seat, keep debris away from getting under the seat & into machine.
- Automotive Quality Paint: We use only automotive quality paint, the best paint in the industry.
- Heavy-duty Wiring: We use heavy duty 10, 12 & 14 gauge wiring, stronger than most competitors. We wrap it for protection, fit & finish.
- Covered Fuse Block: The covered fuse block is protected from the elements and is located for easy accessibility.
- Viton Seals: Viton seals on gas tank output hoses are the best quality and are longer lasting.
- Top Mounted Fuel Pickups: Top mounted fuel pickups deliver easier serviceability, less spillage if line leaks, won't draw dirt from bottom of tank.
- 1 in. x 1/2 in. Leading Edge of Deck: The 1 in. x 1/2 in. leading edge of the deck adds an extra layer of deck protection.
- Rubber Torsion Mounted A-Frame: Rubber torsion mounted A frame contributes to a trouble free smooth ride.
- Extreme Heavy-Duty Bumper: The extreme heavy-duty bumper protects the mower and especially the engine.
- Ordering Replacement Belts & Blades Made Easy: A belt and blade part number sticker is located under seat. When replacements are needed, simply tell your Ferris dealer the part numbers you need to order.
