Description

A 19-hp (14.2-kW) single-cylinder engine has plenty of power and torque to handle tough mowing, mulching, and bagging:

Electronic ignition for fast starts
Spring-return feature to ensure the operator will not mistakenly leave the throttle lever in the choke position
Cast-iron cylinder liner for long engine life
Overhead valves for excellent power and fuel economy
Anti-vibration system
Full-pressure lubrication and oil filter for cleaner oil, prolonging engine life and extending the time between oil changes
More effective when operating the tractor on an incline
Large fuel filter for trouble-free operation
The capacity is 2.4 U.S. gal. (9.1 L).
The fuel filler opening is conveniently located under the seat.
Filling the tank without spilling is easy.
A tethered fuel tank cap is more convenient.
The sealed fuel cap helps keep vapors inside the tank.
The front axle is constructed of solid cast iron that will not bend:

Automotive-like steering system with sector and pinion steering gears and single drag link with a tie rod provides a very strong, low-effort, and tight-turning system.
Three grease fittings, on both steering spindles and center pivot, allow for regular lubrication to help maintain easy steering and minimize wear.
Large, 0.75-in. (1.9-cm) diameter wheel spindles provide excellent durability.
An advantage of lawn tractors is their ability to use equipment for snow removal. Lawn tractor owners can add a John Deere snow blower or front blade to make quick work of moving snow whenever the need arises. Weather enclosure and tire-chain attachments add comfort and performance.

Equipment available for snow removal includes:

44-in. (112-cm) Snow Blower
46-in. (117-cm) Front Blade
Tire chains or TerraGrip traction belts
