I got the 72". It took a little getting used too. I'm still not quite sure I've profected operation. I mowed about 3/4 of my yard after I unloaded it, in a little less than an hour. Mowing my while yard with my B3200 used to take 4 1/2. I think it's going to be an awesome machine and fun to run. It's too bad my grass doesn't grow faster..lol

The cable on the right side is an operator discharge control. theres a metal plate across the discharge hole the will close when you squeeze that lever. It needs placed a little better, to be easier to use while mowing.

Nice machine. I run a ZD326 (60") and 331 (72"), and have 3000 hours between them. Since cut quality and blades have been discussed, my preference is Gator G6 mulching blades year 'round. And yes, that axel jack is awesome when sharpening blades!
Enjoy your new machine.

I have a ZD326P and mowed with it since 2012. It’s been great, almost 400 trouble free hours now. I run G6 blades on my mower and really like them. Only downside to these are the weight when mowing soft ground, just common sense. Enjoy your machine, it will take good care of you

Have you had a chance to use it yet? If so, what do you think?
I'll be doing my first cut this year in about 3-4 days, and I can hardly wait lol.

How do you like the chute control? Is it worth the $260?
