25 HP KOHLER 7000 HD V-TWIN, W/48 FABRICATED DECK, ZT3100 TRANSAXLES. Now looking at flex forks and a suspension seat, with the monies saved I can afford the extras soon. Columbia, MO 65202 Description Kawasaki 24 HP Gas Hydrostatic transmission 52. We seek out challenges, push boundaries, and creatively solve problems.Headquartered in Sullivan, IL, Hydro-Gear is a world leader in the design and manufacture of precision drive solutions for the industrial, commercial, and consumer markets. I went with a Fastrak SD with a honda engine and only a 48" cut, yes a smaller deck allowing me to get it thru the gates, plus since no commercial guys wanting a smaller unit meant a better price for me(saved me $2000) over the 52-60-72" units where the 52 would have been more than enough for me, but my thought was so that is an extra 4 - 8 strips over the other with less scalping. For nearly 30 years Hydro-Gear has built strong and lasting relationships with our employees and our customers. Good luck, the hydros were the first thing I looked at when purchasing a unit prior to who is selling what model or the price. IMO go with what ever you can service and get parts for! Hydro Gear is American and parts more common, the zt3100 is the base commercial unit, IMO allowing you to run 6-8 hours a day. This video goes over how to change oil and filters on the Hydro Gear ZT-2800, ZT-3100, ZT-3200, ZT-3400, ZT-3600, and ZT-3800. before they are back to the same problems of over heating and get jammed up.

There are 3-4 units in the area that are being used by the locals that have issues and can not be serviced or when they can only last about 200 hrs. Hello Buggs, Well I went with the zt3100 on my hustler, currently at 186 hr with a change on oil and filter (cost was over 160$ in material labour on top) but bad experience with the JD units in the past with the Tuff Torq units in the area.
