Cub Cadet RZT 42, RZT 46, RZT 50-KH, RZT 50-KW, RZT 54-KH Specifications

UNSURPASSED RESULTS OF
THE CUB CADET SIGNATURE CUT™

Aerospace engineers developed an advanced cutting system with optimal
airflow, blade overlap and floating deck for the perfect cut. The addition of
anti-scalping wheels and rear striping rollers (on select models), will deliver
a professional-quality finish that will make you the envy of the neighborhood.

HIGH PERFORMANCE AND OUTSTANDING DURABILITY

With a reinforced frame and chassis and a heavy-duty fabricated front axle,
the RZT™ Series can handle some of the toughest terrain. Combined with
its ball bearing hubs, you can tackle the rough without feeling it. It’s high
performance and durability in perfect union.

MOST LEGROOM OF ANY RESIDENTIAL zERO-TURN RIDER

While a great looking lawn is your primary goal, you shouldn’t have to
sacrifice comfort in the process. That’s why the RZT™ Series allows you to
easily adjust the lap bars and also provides the longest, widest foot platform
and the most legroom of any residential zero-turn.
