The Swisher ZT2760B Zero Turn Mower is a very large machine. And that’s exactly why it also has such a big engine. The engine that propels it is a Briggs and Stratton ELS, 2-cylinder model. This 4-stroke engine has a power of 27 HP. The engine gets its fuel from a tank that can hold up to 15. 1 liters of gasoline. Since this is a zero-turn mower, there is no steering wheel. Instead, all control of the machine rests with the rear wheels of the ZT 2760 B which are controlled by the 2 lap bars located in front of the driver. Power from the engine reaches the wheels after being channeled through a dual hydrostatic transmission which means the amount of power each rear wheel receives is independent of the other, allowing it to execute zero radius turns.
The mower deck on the Swisher ZT2760B is very large at 60 inches wide. Inside the welded steel deck are 3 mulching blades that quickly and efficiently grind grass clippings into a fast-breaking mulch. The mower deck can be quickly and easily raised and lowered from 5 inches above your lawn to 1. 5 inches above your lawn in 0. 5 inch increments. The platform is raised and lowered by a spring-assisted manual lever. The ZT 2760 B is belt driven and connected by the operator via an electric PTO. You’ll find the Swisher ZT2866 Zero-Turn Mower to be similar to this one, except it’s a bit larger.
The Swisher ZT2760B zero-turn mower has large rear wheels that measure 20×9. 5-8 (20-inch diameter, 9. 5-inch width, 8-inch rim diameter), as these carry most of theload as well as provide traction to drive the machine forward. The front wheels are limited to keeping the mower deck up and are therefore much smaller, measuring 4. 1×3. 5-5. 5 (10-inch diameter, 3. 5-inch wide, 5. 5inches of rim diameter).
