Operator comfort was a primary focus in the design of the Z994R. It features a large, open operator station and foot platform with plenty of legroom and room for multiple foot positions, as well as a choice of seat and suspension options to suit the operator and operating conditions.

The instruments, controls, and storage areas that are easy to see and use and a three-position rollover protective structure (ROPS) and retractable seat belt for operator safety and convenience.

Two seating options are available:

1. Fully adjustable seat with adjustable armrests and ComfortGlide fore/aft suspension
2. Deluxe comfort seat with adjustable armrests, ComfortGlide fore/aft suspension, platform isolation, and rubber cushioning springs.

The contoured dash has clean, attractive styling, and colour-coded controls are located on the right instrument panel for convenience.

Controls are grouped on the right console, providing one central location for key switch, engine speed control, power take-off (PTO) engagement, height-of-cut adjustment, hour meter, and engine diagnostics.

The comprehensive display tells when oil changes and other maintenance should be performed, monitors vehicle function, and helps diagnose common downtime issues.

Frequently accessed service areas such as the air cleaner, radiator screen, and oil check and fill points can be easily accessed from the open engine compartment. An easy-to-remove rear engine service panel allows access to all engine service points for scheduled service or other maintenance work.

The design of the Z994R makes service components like the engine oil dipstick, oil filter, and fuel filter/water separator easy to see and access, and a large radiator coolant reservoir and fuel filter/separator reduce service requirements and increase uptime.

All mower deck blade spindle grease fittings can be accessed from the top of the mower deck.

Attractive styling incorporates a roomy and uncluttered operator platform with adjustable footrest, seat, and steering control positions for different operator preferences. Other well-thought-out features further contribute to good looks and operator comfort.

The frame is made of heavy-duty formed and welded steel for strength and reliability. Cast I-beam caster arm and spindle assemblies handle the beating and pounding professional mowers receive.

Caster wheels are offset for optimum steering and mowing performance. Benefits include better inside-corner trimming performance and less chance of between-blade striping.

A rear hitch can be added to the steel bumper for towing purposes. The Z994R can tow up to 400 lb (181.4 kg).

The hydrostatic drive included with the Z994R features two 13-cc (0.8-cu in.) unitized hydraulic pumps combined with commercial-grade, heavy-duty, 13-cc (0.8-cu in.) wheel motors into a single unit. The drive units feature cross porting, where the hydraulic fluid from the side doing the least work is filtered and then fed into the input of the side doing the most work. This ensures that the coolest fluid is going into the side working the hardest in order to provide the best performance during extended hillside operation in the same direction.

The Z994 ZTrak™ Mower is equipped with a two-post folding ROPS and a retractable seat belt. The folding ROPS enhances operator safety and provides ample clearance when storing the mower in garages or sheds, and is ISO21299 certified

The ROPS system can be repositioned without the use of tools. Under normal operation, the ROPS should be in the up position. If operating in low clearance areas, the ROPS can be folded and secured out of the way. It can also be positioned halfway down to accommodate machines equipped with a material collection system.

A retractable seatbelt is provided for operator convenience and safety.
