New guy here, thanks for the admission to the forum. I need a zero turn to cut 1.5 acres. Prefer Kawasaki power and at least ZT-2800 drive units and fabricated deck. Looked at all kinds, still lost. Price point $3,500 or so. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks, G

I believe the Gravely ZT XL 42" is the lowest priced Kawasaki/ZT-2800 machine, but I don't know if you can find it for $3500. I think the equivalent Ariens only comes with a Kohler. On the up side, mowing season is on the downhill side, so you might find some end of season deals.

Hello all. My name is Kevin and I purchased a Gravely 2017 ZT HD 52 at the beginning of this year. Very happy with it for the most part. Looking forward spending time here.
 
My mower is Gravely 144Z Model 992042 SN 000526


This is my first ZT here looking for any info on repair and maintenance for my newly acquired high hour (+ 2000 hr.) Gravely.
It runs it drivers , needing bit of maintenance. The deck baffling is a bit beat up and want get it back in order along with a long list of other repairs .


So I am here to gather information .
 
I'm looking at a Gravely Gem but haven't taken the plunge yet. It ran summer before last when it was replaced then it sat all last summer and now it won't start. I'm betting the carb needs gone through. My real question is concerning parts availability and support. This is a pretty old machine but if well cared for should have many years left if the occasional part can be found. Any info here on the forum on this machine is very much appreciated. The current owner thinks it has a 54" deck does this sound right?
 
i have several Gravely toys I have picked up through the years. Two 20G riders an L8 and LI walk behind both electric start with brush hog mowers, rotary plow and tillers. Found a GMT 9000 that has been partly restored which has caught my interest. Only problem doesn't have the transmission with the rear PTO installed or the three point rear lift either. If anyone knows of an available one the as these features I would be interested.
 
I guess this is right. Greetings to all you Gravely drivers. Some years ago I traded a 54 inch JD for a 60 inch ZT HD Gravely and haven't looked back since. Great mower and seems tough as a pine knot. It's a 991084.
 
I have a 2010 Gravely 260z commercial 60" cut, the battery is brand new and dies after about 1 hour and 30 minutes if I turn it off. the PTO also stops working. Is it a charging component or the PTO that is out or drawing juice from the battery?
