</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<h5>Fuel sight widow and fill cap</h5>
A conveniently located fuel-sight window allows the operator to view the fuel level when approaching the vehicle from the front:
<ul>
 	<li>Semi-clear material makes seeing how much fuel is in the tank quick and easy.</li>
 	<li>Large, 3-in. (7.6-cm) diameter fuel-fill opening reduces the chance of spilling when adding fuel.
<ul>
 	<li>Fuel-fill opening is low and angled to make adding fuel easy.</li>
</ul>
</li>
 	<li>Cap is tethered to the fuel tank.
<ul>

</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<h5>Mower deck lift and cut height</h5>
Mower deck cutting height can be adjusted from 1 in. (2.5 cm) to 4 in. (10.2 cm) in 0.25-in. (0.64-cm) increments for excellent cut quality and performance:
<ul>
 	<li>A convenient foot-lift pedal is used to raise the mower deck for setting cut height or locking mower in the raised or transport position.</li>
 	<li>A lift-assist spring is provided to optimize the effort it takes to raise the mower deck.</li>
</ul>
<h5>Cut-height adjustment and transport lock</h5>
<ul>
 	<li>To adjust cut height, simply push down on the foot-lift pedal, place the cut-height pin in the desired location, and release the foot-lift pedal to lower the deck to the chosen height.</li>
 	<li>Use the foot-lift pedal to lock the deck in transport mode. Simply depress the pedal all the way and the deck will lock into transport mode.</li>
 	<li>To unlock and lower the deck, push down on the foot-lift pedal, pull up on the transport unlock lever, and release the foot-lift pedal to lower the deck to the chosen height.</li>
</ul>
<h5>Premium steering levers</h5>
Motion control levers are shaped and located for operator comfort and ease of control.

Premium control levers on the Z530R and Z545R are painted green and have a unique shape and size for more comfortable operation.

The park brake is conveniently located:
<ul>
 	<li>Large lever is easy to use.</li>
 	<li>Park brake effectively holds the machine in the parked position.</li>
 	<li>Park brake must be engaged (in the upper position) to start the engine.</li>
 	<li>Once the engine is started, the park brake must be disengaged before operating the motion-control levers.</li>
</ul>
Brake-and-go logic:
<ul>
 	<li>Park brake must be engaged for the engine to crank.</li>
 	<li>Motion-control levers must be in the outward position for the engine to crank.</li>
 	<li>Park brake must be disengaged before operating the motion-control levers or the engine will stall.</li>
</ul>
<h5>Safety interlock system</h5>
Safety interlocks help prevent operating in an unsafe way:
<ul>
 	<li>The parking brake must be engaged for the engine to crank.
<ul>
 	<li>Parking brake is set when motion-control levers are in the outward position.</li>
</ul>
</li>
 	<li>The operator presence system requires the operator to be in the seat to operate the PTO.</li>
 	<li>The key switch interlock prevents bypass starting.</li>
 	<li>If the operator leaves the seat when the PTO is engaged, the controls are in the operating position, or the parking brake is not set, the engine will shut down.</li>
 	<li>The seat interlock switch disengages the mower when the operator leaves the seat.</li>
 	<li>The engine will stall if the operator leaves the seat without the motion-control levers in the outward position and the parking brake set.</li>
</ul>

<h5>Deep deck design</h5>
The mower deck has a deep-deck design:
<ul>
 	<li>Constructed from heavy, 9-gauge, 0.15-in. (3.8-mm) steel
<ul>
 	<li>Minimizes the number of welds required</li>
 	<li>Has a smooth underside for reduced material buildup</li>
</ul>
</li>
 	<li>Deep-deck design delivers excellent airflow so large volumes of material can be processed quickly and efficiently.</li>
 	<li>A wider and higher discharge opening provides even clipping dispersal for an excellent finished appearance in all conditions.</li>
 	<li>A durable, plastic deflector spreads grass clippings evenly across the lawn, is hinged, and can be raised to minimize the storage space required.</li>
 	<li>1-in. (25.4-mm) cold-forged spindles are heat-treated for strength and are supported by ball bearings.</li>
 	<li>Standard front rollers and two double-captured wheels provide a more even mowing job and reduce the chance of scalping.
<ul>
 	<li>Adjustable for different mowing heights</li>
</ul>
</li>
 	<li>The front edge is raised above the blade plane to allow for even cutting of tall grass.</li>
 	<li>Blade overlap is greater than many conventional decks for a clean cut.</li>
 	<li>The mower can side-discharge, mulch, or collect material.</li>
</ul>
<h5>Mower level adjustment</h5>
<ul>
 	<li>Deck leveling and rake angle adjustment is provided at all four mower mounting points.</li>
</ul>
<h5>Reinforced leading edge</h5>
Steel reinforcing bars are welded to the front edge and trim side of the mower deck:
<ul>
 	<li>Strengthens the deck to reduce chance of damage from obstructions</li>
 	<li>Increased material thickness for longer deck life</li>
</ul>
<h5>Superior durability is designed in</h5>
The deck has deep, strong spindle pockets to keep the blades aligned, even after years of tough operation:
<ul>
 	<li>Ribs formed in the deck shell add strength where needed.</li>
 	<li>The aluminum spindle housing has an 8-in. (20-cm) base for extra strength.</li>
</ul>
Flip-up spindle covers make cleaning the spindle area convenient.
<h5>Wheels and rollers</h5>
Dual-captured side anti-scalp wheels and front rollers:
<ul>
 	<li>Give a more even mowing job and reduce the chance of scalping</li>
 	<li>Wheels are adjustable for different mowing heights</li>
</ul>
<h5>MulchControl limitations</h5>
While in the side-discharge mode, MulchControl will still mulch about one-third of the material. Therefore, the side-discharge mode is essentially a partial mulch mode. This can be an advantage when side discharging or bagging, as it helps reduce the amount of material being discharged. Other times this could work as a disadvantage:
<ul>
 	<li>When cutting strong southern grasses, such as Zoysia and Bermuda</li>
 	<li>When cutting in wet, high-growth conditions, such as those found in the Pacific Northwest United States</li>
 	<li>When optimum bagging and lawn cleanup is desired</li>
</ul>
<h5>Optional MulchControl™ attachment</h5>
The MulchControl attachment makes mulching more practical for many mowing situations because it not only does an excellent job of mulching but it also allows the mower to be easily converted for times when it is more desirable to side discharge or collect the lawn material. Advantages of mulching grass clippings include:
<ul>
 	<li>A beautiful looking lawn</li>
 	<li>Grass clippings not blown onto the operator, driveways, or flower beds</li>
 	<li>Less fertilizer required</li>
 	<li>Elimination of the effort needed to dispose of clippings</li>
</ul>
MulchControl is an innovative, simple design that is easy to use and maintain:
<ul>
 	<li>The MulchControl attachment includes baffles to control the flow of material under the deck.</li>
 	<li>Mulching blades to give a more complete mulching job are included.</li>
 	<li>The left mower blade area is completely enclosed and optimized for mulching and will mulch even when the mower is in the side-discharge mode.</li>
 	<li>Baffles around the center and right blades are optimized for mulching when the discharge baffle is closed.</li>
 	<li>A MulchControl kit is not available for 48HC mower decks.</li>
</ul>
<h5>MulchControl operation</h5>
The optional MulchControl attachment comes with a handle on top of the mower deck that is used to open and close the discharge baffle:
<ul>
 	<li>The operator is required to get off of the machine in order to engage or disengage mulch mode.</li>
 	<li>Changing from mulching to side discharge or vice versa with the hand lever takes only a few seconds.</li>
</ul>
MulchControl is well-suited to the following mowing situations:
<ul>
 	<li>Usually mulch, but side discharge when grass gets too long</li>
 	<li>Usually side discharge, but would like to be able to close the chute to control clippings</li>
 	<li>Always mulch a main lawn, but often side discharge secondary lawns</li>
 	<li>Bag clippings, but want to go farther before emptying bags</li>
</ul>
MulchControl puts the operator in control of the clippings. The operator can have all the benefits of mulching with the ability to easily change to side-discharge or bagging when needed.

<h5>Optional 6.5-bu (229-L) ZTrak Z500 Series material collection system (MCS) (not available for 60-in. [152-cm] High Capacity Mower Deck)</h5>
The 6.5-bu (230-L) rear bagger efficiently collects material from a 48- or 54-in. (122- or 137-cm) Mower Deck:
<ul>
 	<li>Hopper and included attachment bar/bumper, Power Flow blower, and chute components are ordered separately to make a complete MCS.</li>
 	<li>A weight bracket is included for installation on the front of the vehicle to help counterbalance the weight of the hopper. For proper ballast with complete MCS:
<ul>
 	<li>Four weights are required on a ZTrak Z500 Series equipped with a 48-in. (122-cm) Mower Deck.</li>
 	<li>Three weights are required on a ZTrak Z500 Series equipped with a 54-in. (137-cm) Mower Deck.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
The hopper design provides efficient bagging performance, clean operation, and easy-to-empty bags:
<ul>
 	<li>Two durable bags give a generous, 6.5-bu (230-L) capacity.</li>
 	<li>The bags lift out for easy emptying.</li>
 	<li>An efficient chute provides a smooth flow of material to reduce the chance of plugging.
<ul>
 	<li>The chute and Power Flow blower must be ordered separately.</li>
</ul>
</li>
 	<li>Standard mower blades are used for bagging.</li>
 	<li>The air exhaust duct directs air from the hopper back and toward the ground for clean operation.</li>
 	<li>Convenient latch makes opening and closing the hopper easy.</li>
</ul>
<em>NOTE: Appropriate hopper with included attachment bar, Power Flow blower, chute and weights are required and ordered separately.</em>

Superior durability and productivity from flat-top design of 9-gauge, 0.15-in. (3.8-mm) high capacity mower decks

<div class="col-md-12">

The Z530M and Z530R have a large 44.3-cu in. (726-cc) displacement engine with premium features that provide superior performance and reliability.
<ul>
 	<li>Easy inspection and removal of any debris that may have collected using two large cleanout ports that are integrated into the engine shroud over the cylinder heads.</li>
 	<li>Engine service times, reliability, and life are increased with the use of premium engine oil and air filtering systems, as well as the cooling design.</li>
</ul>
Experience plenty of power and torque to handle tough mulching, mowing, and bagging conditions with the 24-hp (17.9-kW) V-twin engine:
<ul>
 	<li>Greater torque, lower vibration, and improved sound quality from the V-twin cylinder design</li>
 	<li>Fast starts with electronic ignition</li>
 	<li>Long engine life with cast-iron cylinder liners</li>
 	<li>Excellent power and fuel economy with overhead valves</li>
 	<li>Reliable operation with in-line fuel filter</li>
</ul>
The engine speed lever and choke control lever are separate controls:
<ul>
 	<li>The engine speed lever is easy to use - there is no need to worry about pushing too far and engaging the choke like on single throttle/choke lever systems.</li>
</ul>
The engine area is open for visibility to important service points, making it easy to inspect and clean the engine.
<h5>4.5-gal. (17-L) fuel capacity for extended mowing times</h5>
The 4.5-gal. (17-L) fuel tank is easy to fill and has a sight-level window and dash-mounted gauge:
<ul>
 	<li>Longer times between refills with the large tank</li>
 	<li>Easy to see how much fuel is in the tank by viewing the sight gauge when approaching from the front of the machine</li>
 	<li>Easy filling and minimum chance of spills with a large, 3-in. (7.6-cm) diameter fuel opening that is low and angled</li>
</ul>
John Deere recommends the use of fuel stabilizer in gasoline. See <a href="https://www.wadeincorporated.com/docs/sales/salesmanual/en_NA/lawn_equipment/attachments/ty27534_fuel_protect_gas_engines.html">Fuel-Protect for gasoline engines (8 oz [237 mL])</a> for more information.

 	<li>Convenient-to-use controls are located close to the operator.</li>
 	<li>Operator controls are color coded and designed for easy identification and operation.</li>
</ul>
The ROPS and seat belt work in conjunction to provide a protective zone around the operator:

 	<li>It reduces the operator’s risk of being crushed under the vehicle should it overturn.</li>
 	<li>In most situations, the ROPS limits the overturn to little more than 90 degrees.</li>
 	<li>When used with a seatbelt, the ROPS is very effective in preventing deaths and serious injuries.
<ul>
 	<li>Use of the seat belt is recommended when operating with ROPS in the upright position.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
Foldable ROPS and retractable seat belt are standard equipment:
<ul>
 	<li>Handles on the position pins provide a good grip and make changing the angle of the ROPS easier.</li>
 	<li>The door height of most garages will accommodate the machine with ROPS in the fully raised position.
<ul>
 	<li>Easy-fold ROPS improves the ability to store the ZTrak™ mower in structures with a lower door opening.</li>
