Rolling Out the RED Carpet for Intelligent Engine Management Technology

With the introduction of the next generation of its patented RED Technology, Exmark provides performance, power, efficiency and versatility with its Lazer Z and Lazer Z Diesel commercial zero-turn mowers. Exmark says the features of its next-generation RED Technology includes:

• The ability to control mower power and efficiency with defined performance modes.
• A console-mounted LCD monitor screen that monitors mower functions, and reports operation and property statistics, maintenance reminders and troubleshooting information.
• The flexibility to operate at a lower RPM level without sacrificing performance or cut quality, which reduces fuel consumption, noise and component wear. 
• The ability to monitor machine performance parameters and place the mower in safe transport mode (reduced RPM and clutch disengaged) if a critical engine or system issue is detected. 
• Three multi-function push buttons that allow the user to select from three operating (RPM) modes or navigate the menu screens.
• A clutch saver feature, which momentarily reduces engine RPM when the clutch is engaged to ease component stress and wear, and can engage the cutting deck on the fly.
• A selection of six customizable engine speed set points for low, efficient and maximum modes, with or without the power take-off (PTO) engaged. 
• A control module that is linked to the mower model and serial number, allowing accurate tracking of service and usage data.
• Machine health tracking and on-screen notifications when engine or transmission oil changes are due. 
• The on-screen display of an error/troubleshooting code when the system detects an error, while service history and error codes are logged for later reference.
• RED-equipped electronic fuel injection (EFI) gasoline Kawasaki (Lazer Z S-Series) and Kohler (Lazer Z X-Series) engine options, as well as RED-equipped Yanmar diesel engines on Lazer Z Diesel models.
