Engine is smooth running and reliable V-twin liquid-cooled design

The V-twin, liquid-cooled John Deere iTorque power system with electronic fuel injection (EFI) provides exceptional performance and has the durability to handle commercial-use applications. The John Deere iTorque power system includes a combination of engine features that provide more lugging ability, even cooling, and durability.

iTorque stands for intelligent design (to get a task done efficiently) and torque (good lugging ability). It is used exclusively on gasoline-powered Select Series™ and Signature Series Tractors.

The 25.5-hp (19-kW) liquid-cooled V-twin engine has a large 45.5-cu in. (745-cc) displacement to provide plenty of power and torque for excellent performance in any operating condition. The one-piece hood is hinged to open for convenient engine service.

54-in. (137-cm) and 60-in. (152-cm) High-Capacity (HC) Mower Decks are heavy duty

A deep-deck design of 5.5 in. (14 cm) delivers excellent airflow so material can be processed quickly and efficiently. The deck is forged from 9-gauge, 0.15-in. (3.8-mm) steel and has welded-on reinforcement at the bottom edge for extra strength and durability.

• Wider and higher discharge opening provides an even clipping dispersal for an excellent finished appearance in all conditions.
• Durable plastic deflector spreads grass clippings evenly across the lawn, is hinged, and can be raised to minimize the storage space required. 
• 1-in. (2.5-cm) cold-forged spindles are heat-treated for strength and supported by ball bearings.
• Front edge is raised above the blade plane to allow even cutting of tall grass.
• Blade overlap is greater than many conventional decks for a clean cut.
• Mower can side-discharge, mulch (optional), or use a Power Flow™ collection system (optional).
• Constructed of 30 percent glass-filled polypropylene for strength to carry the weight of the tractor
• Polypropylene material will not rust or corrode for lasting good appearance
• Shark tooth shaped grips designed into the ramp inclines for added wheel traction when driving onto the mower deck
• Tire grab at the rear of the ramp gives extra wheel traction
• Ramps removed and replaced without tools to permit convenient servicing of the mower spindles

Operator station is comfortable and convenient

The tilt steering wheel can be adjusted for optimum operator comfort:

• Six positions can be selected with the push of a lever for the most comfortable setting.
• The full-up position makes getting on and off the tractor easy.
• The steering wheel is designed for comfortable, no-slip operation.

Snow removal and yard care equipment

An advantage of X700 Series Garden Tractors is their ability to use attachments for snow removal and a variety of other yard-care tasks.

The front quick-hitch mounting system allows for a tool-free change between the front blade, rotary broom, and snow blower. Additional attachments available for use with the equipment listed below include:

• Quik-Tatch tractor frame weights to add ballast for traction and stability
  NOTE: Ballast is required for some applications.
• Tire chains or TerraGrip traction belts for extra traction when using snow-removal equipment
• Weather protection (shown below) for operator protection and comfort

Instruments and controls are easy to find and use

The contoured dash has clean, attractive styling and ergonomic controls for easy use:

• Controls are color coded for easy identification by the operator.
• Controls are logically placed and easy to reach.
• The power take-off (PTO) switch allows the operator to get fingers underneath it, like a T-handle, to pull up for easy activation.
• The reverse implement option (RIO) switch is an easy-to-see and easy-to-use yellow button.
• Cruise control activation is handled by an automotive-style button.
• Functional design of the throttle control provides good appearance and a comfortable feel.

Modern styling has a functional design

John Deere Signature Series are the very best mowing tractors available and can also handle a wide range of other yard care chores, such as snow removal, lawn cleanup, and landscaping work. These heavy-duty tractors include models with two-wheel drive (2WD) and four-wheel drive (4WD), two- and four-wheel steering, and even a model with full-time 4WD and four-wheel steering.
Standard equipment styled alloy wheels and John Deere brand embroidery:

• Standard equipment styled alloy wheels give X700 Series Tractors a fresh, upscale appearance that goes well with their high-quality standards and superior performance.
• John Deere brand embroidery has been added to the standard equipment 21-in. (53-cm) two-piece adjustable seat to make it look as good as it feels.

The open platform is roomy and uncluttered:

• Makes getting on and off the tractor easy
• Provides ample legroom with built-in heel pockets for comfortable operation

The single-piece hood completely encloses the engine:

• Improves appearance
• Provides quieter operation
• Easy to remove for service accessibility
• Painted hood 
  • More scratch and scuff resistant than molded-in color
  • Deep scratches repairable with paint

Hydrostatic drive with Twin Touch™ control is easy to operate

Twin Touch foot pedals control the speed and direction of travel:

• Automotive-type accelerator control for easy operation
• Twin Touch design that allows operator to change direction without lifting foot off platform
• Large pedal surface for increased operator comfort

When the master brake pedal is depressed, the power take-off (PTO) and cruise control disengage.
Cruise control is standard equipment:

• To engage, push in on the cruise lever and hold until the foot is removed from the forward pedal.
• For emergency stop, the cruise control can be released by pushing on the master brake pedal or pushing down on the forward pedal.

Thoughtful designs promote safe operation and convenient service

MulchControl™ system provides superior mulching performance and rapid conversion

The optional MulchControl system 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:

• Creates a beautiful looking lawn
• Smaller grass clippings disappear into the lawn canopy
• Reduces fertilizer needs
• Grass clippings are not blown onto the operator, driveways, or flower beds
• No need to dispose of bags of clippings
