The Ariens Zoom 34 Zero Turn Mower is the smallest machine in the Ariens “Zoom” range. The largest models are the Ariens Zoom 42 and the Ariens Zoom 50. The specific model number of the Zoom 34 mower is 915157. This zero turn mower is powered by a Briggs and Stratton 0. 5 liter 4-stroke 1cylinder that produces 14. 5 horsepower. The engine is started electrically using a key start mechanism and a 12V battery. Engine power is transferred independently to each rear wheel. This is done via an EZT ‘Hydro-Gear’, dual hydrostatic transmission which makes controlling the machine a breeze. The left and right bars located in front of the driver control the amount of power that is directed to the left and right rear wheel. Varying the amount of power each rear wheel receives is what allows the driver to turn the machine. This mechanism is what gives the machine the ability to execute zero radius turns.
The Ariens Zoom 34 mower has a very decent top speed of 9. 7 kph (6 mph) forward and 4. 8 kph (3 mph) in reverse. The mower deck is powered by a Warner electric system and has 2 blades. As you can guess from the name of the machine, it has a 34-inch cutting width. The platform can operate at 7 different heights, from 1 to 4 inches above the ground.
The front tires on the Ariens Zoom 34 mower measure 11×4 (11 inches in diameter, 4 inches wide) while the rear tires measure 18×6. 5 (18 inches in diameter, 6. 5 inches wide).
