Built for landowners who want to cover more grass in less time, the YZ260 pairs a wide, highly maneuverable deck with the pro-level feel Yanmar is known for. It’s made to move quickly through open areas, then pivot cleanly around trees, gates, and landscaping without leaving missed patches. The result is a faster mow that still looks crisp, controlled, and finished.

Turn big mowing days into quick work.
The YZ260 is for landowners who want a faster path to a finished lawn. Its wider deck is built to knock down open stretches with fewer passes, so you spend less time circling back and more time enjoying a clean result.
Kawasaki power and a dependable drivetrain deliver the steady feel you want when you’re moving at pace, and true zero-turn handling keeps you precise when it’s time to trim around landscaping. The suspension seat helps smooth the ride, making the YZ260 a smart pick when your property is large enough to justify more coverage, but you still care about control and consistency.

The 60-inch deck is built for efficient coverage, helping you finish large, open sections with fewer passes and less backtracking. When the property opens up, the YZ260 is designed to keep your momentum and turn mowing time into free time.
A reliable Kawasaki engine and proven drivetrain give the YZ260 the steady response you want when conditions change from flat stretches to uneven ground. Add the suspension seat, and you get a smoother ride that helps you stay sharp, even when the job runs long.
The Yanmar YZ260 is a 24 HP zero-turn mower built for efficient coverage on larger yards where deck width matters. With a 60-inch deck, HG ZT-3100 transmission, and up to 8 mph top speed, it’s designed to maintain a confident pace while staying easy to handle around obstacles. The suspension seat includes 1.5 inches of travel for added comfort, and with up to 4.8 acres per hour plus a 5.1-gallon fuel tank, it supports productive mowing without constant interruptions.
Wide Coverage, Tight Control The YZ260’s advantage is simple, it reduces the number of passes you need, then uses zero-turn agility to clean up the details. That combination helps you finish faster without leaving the lawn looking like you rushed it.
