New John Deere lawn tractor
Designed for comfort, convenience and performance, John Deere lawn tractors offer the ultimate experience in grass maintenance. All John Deere Select Series models are engineered to the highest quality standards, with a heavy-duty robotically welded frame, powerful fuel-efficient engine and high-precision cutting technology.
The new X350R lawn tractor will particularly suit customers with areas of grass up to 8000m2, or about two acres. It is simple to operate, with easy-to-use foot pedals, a modern car-style instrument display and a powerful 12.2kW/3100rpm Kawasaki petrol engine with cruise control.
The X350R features a new 107cm (42in) rear discharge Accel Deep mower deck, designed with a deep body and flat top to allow a clean flow of grass cuttings for excellent cut quality, even in normally difficult tall grass. The stamped steel design of the durable heavy-duty deck eliminates sharp edges and corners where material can build up and compromise performance. The new Accel Deep deck ensures a premium finish, as well as many hours of trouble free operation.
Height of cut is easily adjustable from 25 to 102mm (1 to 4in) in 6mm (¼in) increments, using a dial – all from the comfort of the lawn tractor’s deluxe seat. An adjustable fill switch for the grass collector activates an indicator and alarm, so that the operator can choose when to empty the machine.
The high capacity 300-litre collector means faster work with fewer stops to empty the clippings, which is also quickly done from the operator’s seat. An optional mulching kit makes the X350R a truly versatile machine.
For additional year-round versatility, a wide range of front and rear-mounted attachments and implements can be used with the X350R, including utility carts, a rotary brush, front blade and snow blower. Price of the new John Deere X350R lawn tractor starts at £4975 including VAT.
All the models in John Deere’s X300 and X500 Select Series lawn tractor range introduced for 2016 come with multiple improvements, such as the new mower deck, an updated instrument display with the look and feel of a modern car and easy to operate controls.
The lawn tractor’s ‘best cut zone’ feature enables the operator to always run the machine at its optimum speed and still maintain great cut quality. An optional MulchControl attachment means changing from side discharge to mulching or vice versa is done with the simple flip of a lever.
