Relatively Decent Machine Posted by greg gragaski on 04/04/2014

Owners with gripes seem to have tractors that are pre-2010 models. Perhaps JD corrected some of the faults of the earlier machines. The Yanmar diesel seems to be as advertised---bullet proof.

It starts every time even in the 10-20 below temps of 2013-14 winter and runs strong. Gauge of FEL steel is 'chincy' and I don't anticipate it having a long life. Shift lever slips out of gear on occasion, but never considered that it was a tranny problem.

The warehouse (R4?) Tires are poor performers in snow, under wet conditions and on grades. Pain in the to hook up 60" rear finish mower due to cramped rear PTO area although 3-pt. features (adjust-ability) makes attaching other implements a breeze.

Excellent fuel economy...but that's the kind of high quality for which Jap products are famous. The cab feature would have been a welcome feature except for the increased cost. Yes, it does tend to get 'stuck' but that has more to do with tires than anything else.

JD could have done a better job of designing headlights (beamed too low and not adjustable) and FEL control lever that I always activate (drop) by hitting it with my knee when turning to look over left shoulder. Lots o' sod peeled up when mowing. Stability can be 'dicey' if not careful. Front hydraulics are mega-strong.
