    All of the controls are located within comfortable reach of the operator. Simplified operation of each control offers superior convenience, productivity, and safety:

    • Color-coded and clearly marked levers, switches, and buttons enable simplified operation.
    • Bilingual decals in English and Spanish are provided.
    • The operator presence system requires that one of the bails must be depressed to operate the unit; the machine must be in neutral and the power take-off (PTO) must be disengaged to start.
      • Operator presence control levers are recessed into control handle when engaged, provides a smooth contour and comfortable handle to hold during operation.
    • Separate choke and throttle – This takes the guesswork out of choke operation, with less chance of fowling the spark plugs.
      • The W61R model with electronic fuel injection (EFI) does not require a choke.
    • Electric PTO clutch on the engine powers the mower deck. The PTO switch on the dash is easy to see and use.

    Optional mulching kit and blades (similar design shown)

    An optional mulching attachment and special mulching blades are available:

    • The high-performance mulching attachment includes formed steel baffles to control the material for superior performance.
    • Special mulching blades can also be used when side discharging, though overall cutting performance may be slightly less than with the standard blades.
    • The mulching attachment allows for conversion of the mower deck so it can be used to perform the mulching function (grass or leaves).
    OPERATING TIPS WHEN MULCHING:
    • Mow when grass is dry.
    • Observe the one-third rule.
      • No more than one-third of the grass blade should be cut off at one time. This allows more efficient mulching and will promote the continued good health of the grass.
      • If the desired cut height cannot be achieved by cutting off one-third, or there is clumping of the clippings, it may be required to cut higher, wait a day, then lower the mower and make a second pass.
    • Mow at proper intervals, approximately every four to five days.
    • Always mow with sharp blades.
    • Adjust ground speed to allow the mower deck to process the clippings effectively.
  • Serviceability features and 2-year, bumper to bumper warranty maximize uptime
    2-YEAR BUMPER-TO-BUMPER WARRANTY

    John Deere warranty includes:

    • Single source
    • 24-month coverage

    Las segadoras comerciales de John Deere siempre han demostrado calidad, rendimiento y durabilidad. Each commercial walk-behind mower is equipped with a high-quality fabricated mower deck:

    • 10-gauge, 0,14-in. (3,42-mm) fabricated steel deck top with added 10-gauge, 0,14-in. (3,42-mm) spindle mounting plate
    • 7-gauge, 0,19-in. (4,8-mm) side skirts with reinforcement bar

    The fabricated, floating mower deck delivers an extremely high-quality cut in diverse conditions:

    • Floating suspension enables the best possible cut.
    • Reinforced front and side lower edge provides strength and durability.
    • Anti-scalp wheels are double-captured for durability and adjustable to three positions to suit the cut height.
    • Deep-deck design for superior capacity.
    • Side and center anti-scalp wheels promote a smooth mowing job.

    • Hardened, high-lift steel blades extend cutting time and increase durability.
    • High blade-tip speed of approximately 18.000 fpm (5.486 m/min).
    • R Series mower decks include a center rear wheel for additional anti-scalp and curb climbing protection.
      • Adjustable to three height positions to suit the cut height

    A high-quality polyethylene deflector gives an excellent finished appearance:

    • Wide, formed discharge deflector gives even clipping distribution.
    • Large discharge deflector evenly disperses expelled clippings.

    Las ruedas de pivote con neumáticos que no se desinflan contribuyen a un corte liso y uniforme: 

    • Las ruedas de pivote grandes que no se desinflan permiten que la segadora se deslice suavemente sobre el césped. 
    • Caster wheels are close to the mower deck to reduce vehicle footprint and turning radius.
      • With the wheels less exposed, there is less chance they will get snagged by immovable obstacles, thus improving maneuverability and reducing chance of damage.

    A floating mower deck has several advantages over a fixed mower deck design:

    • Follows ground contour more effectively for a more even cut
    • Travels smoothly above the ground with minimal chance of scalping
    • Easier to adjust the cutting height

    Mower cutting height can be set from 1,5 in. (3,8 cm) to 4,5 in. (11,4 cm) in 0,5-in. (1,3-cm) increments:

    • The free-floating deck gives a smoother, more level cut.
    • Height-of-cut changes can be made without tools.
    • Large handles are provided to facilitate lifting the mower deck for setting the cut height.
    • Cut-height adjustment pins have 90-degree bend for easy removal and reinstallation.

    • Easy-attach belt shields allow quick access for service.
    • Four hand knobs allow removal of both mower shields.
    • Greaseable spindles with easy, top access for simplified servicing.
    • Spindle grease fittings can be greased with shields in place.

    The grass catcher is designed to work with 36-in. (91-cm), 48-in. (122-cm), and 52-in. (132-cm) Mower Decks on John Deere Commercial Walk-Behind Mowers:

    • Large, 4,4-cu ft (3,5-bu) capacity allows for less stops to empty catcher.
    • No mower faceplate is needed. The catcher connects directly to standard mower deck features.
    • Stainless steel and aluminum construction is both durable for long life and lightweight for easy handing.
    • Convenient sliding door latch enables easy emptying.
    • Two large grab handles allows for easy handling.
    • Catcher weighs about 30 lb (13,6 kg) empty.

    NOTE: The optional mulch and grass catcher attachments are not included in base equipment for the commercial walk-behind mower and must be ordered separately.

Great mower

4/5

Has great control. Very easy to use. Has plenty of power. This is a mower I have no problem walking with. Actually enjoyable instead of being beaten up by twitchy or loose controlled equipment. After the first twenty hrs . I noticed a ticking sound. The pully tentioner has become loose. Have not taken a serious look yet but may be a pully bearing or a tendon pully or just pully going bad. Noticed not as much cutting power when in taller grass because of this. will update response once I know for sure!

Room for improvement

3/5

Machine gives a nice cut and has plenty of power. Order of operations to start/stop is critical or you'll have heads turning with all the 'back-fires'. But the area that needs the most improvement is the deck adjustment - very challenging - and the difficulty of sharpening/changing the blades.

VERY nice mower

5/5

I love this mower. Very well built. Handles great. Cuts great. The twin motor has great power and starts easy. The controls are easy to use . The mower is smooth , turns great and behaves very nice. They improved this mower and now I think it can hold its own against the turf tracer.
