2024 GIANNI FERRARI TURBO Z 223

Gianni Ferrari Mower TURBO-Z
TurboZ is Gianni Ferrari’s range of Zero Turn professional mowers without collection. These machines are extraordinarily manoeuvrable. Three models with different motors allow the operator to make best use of their working time, eliminating manoeuvring and the need for manual trimming.

Its great compactness and surprising manoeuvrability allow the TurboZ to be very nimble between trees, flowerbeds and bushes, in small gardens and on narrow pathways.

High cutting speed and dual fuel tanks allow for longer work periods (up to 10 hours without refuelling stops) and greater productivity, with superb work output.

ZERO TURNING RADIUS
The innovative two independent hydrostatic transmissions on the drive wheels are key to this machine’s agility with zero turning radius (ZTR).

Extremely fast on various types of terrain for high production efficiency
Fabulous dexterity among trees, bushes, flowerbeds and down the narrow paths of parks and gardens
Zero downtime due to additional manoeuvres
Manual finishing removed: optimised working time


CUTTING SYSTEM
The TurboZ’s mulching/rear-discharge cutters adapt perfectly to undulating terrain: their floating movement ensures that the cut is always accurate and with excellent performance. They also come with sturdy trolleys equipped with anti-puncture wheels made of soft solid rubber.
The cutting width ranges from 112 to 190 cm.

DOUBLE BLADES AND DUAL CUT
The various types of mowers mainly use discs with double blades – positioned in line – or single blades arranged in a triangle with belt drive.
Both types have large, deep and very robust tanks for excellent shredding and distribution of the grass. They also have the added benefit of the practical DUAL CUT™ quick conversion system on the front left side of the deck, to change the cut-type in an instant, from mulching to rear discharge and vice versa.

EXTREME EASE OF USE
The user operates the infinitely-variable cutting height adjustment from the edge of the machine via a button which can also be effortlessly used to get the deck in vertical position for easy cleaning and maintenance or to reduce the machine dimensions for transportation or garaging.
However, manual management is only available on the TurboZ 440D, with the help of a hydraulic lift.

DRIVING POSITION
The TurboZ 440D has two levers, while the 22 and 23 Hp mowers are available in two versions with two or three levers. This allows the user to choose the most practical option for all their needs.
The driving system with three levers (two steering levers and one speed control lever) provides for effortless and precise control. In this case, the dashboard, located on the right-hand side, provides information at a glance.
In the two-lever system, the PTO and front linkage controls are located on the end of the right lever and the control panel, also on the right, is equipped with specific indicators and instruments.
The TurboZ’s come with a comfortable contour-moulded seat, adjustable in depth, with lumbar support and headrest, adjustable armrests and springs, also in a heated version.

COMPLETE ACCESSIBILITY
TurboZ’s are also designed to optimise ordinary and extraordinary operations.
Therefore, all routine maintenance and grease points are reduced to a minimum, and even the inspection points are easy to reach thanks to the practical ‘folding opening’ of all the hoods and the easy tilting of the driver’s seat.

TRANSMISSION AND POWER TAKE-OFF
The hydrostatic transmission for all models in the range is 2-wheel drive
In the smaller models it is based on two compact transaxles with external oil filter, while on the TurboZ 440D it is based on pumps and efficient Danfoss axial piston motors with mechanical gearboxes, which provide high performance, excellent traction and high transfer speed.
The PTO is engaged electrically using a simple button on the control panel (on three-lever models) and a switch on the end of the right lever (on two-lever models) which operates a powerful ELECTROMAGNETIC CLUTCH, adjustable to maintain efficiency over time, on 22 and 23 Hp models.
The clutch safety brake for stopping the PTO is already integrated into the system.
A PTO shaft provides the power transmission from the engine to the front attachment with higher efficiency and reliability than a conventional belt transmission.
Finally, diesel version is fitted with a convenient front hydraulic lift device enabling the machine to mount kerbs and other obstacles, simply by pressing a pushbutton.

MOTORS
The petrol model, equipped with Briggs & Stratton Vanguard, and the diesel model, with Kubota engine, are perfectly adapted to the new STAGE V class, and STAGE IIIA for non-EU countries, in full compliance with exhaust emission regulations.

ELECTRONIC ENGINE EVOLUTION
The TurboZ 223 petrol model is also available with an Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) engine.
The Electronic Engine Evolution provides maximum fuel efficiency and increased torque for better machine performance and equipment productivity.
The distribution with OHV (Over Head Valves) technology – also known as rods and rocker arms – provides, despite the compact size, longer motor life (in addition to the three-year warranty) and greater fuel savings.
In addition, the combined action of the MagnetronR injection system and the ECU (Electronic Control Module), with its automatic altitude compensation, optimises machine start-up.
