Thanks for the closeup of the auto-connect. It seems like a lot of people complain about it not coupling correctly, but it was nice to see how it is supposed to work. Your video is more informative than the JD instructional videos.
I can't thank you enough. This is going to help me big time when I switch from snow blower to cutting deck. you did an awesome job. The wheel for the hydraulic fluid is something so easy to forget. Thanks, again.
Beautiful machine. I have a much simpler JD s180 that I am trying to figure out how to modify it so I can drive over the deck w/o damaging the spindles. I love using my machines w/o the decks to pull stuff and do other yard work. No, you weren't talking to yourself I got a lot out of seeing how the drive-over works on a tractor that is supposed to support it. I appreciate you taking the time to make the video, thanks!
Thanks for watching. Those ramps are very lightweight and easily removeable, I think that could be great starting point for converting yours to drive-over. I agree, I find myself taking off the deck more and more to do other things, fortunately this system makes it an easy process especially after you’ve done it a couple of times, I’m really impressed with the design. Best of luck in adapting your machine to better fit your needs and the way you work. A desire to do something differently sometimes leads to the best inventions and tinkering is fun along the way.
This was a good video. I really appreciate you giving the camera views. Getting a X734 delivered tomorrow with the auto connect deck. Another video showed a problem with the connector on the auto connect. The screws need lock tight to hold em in place. Otherwise the connector will spin but the belts won't.
Thanks for watching and congrats on your new machine. I watched the video you referenced during my research pre-purchase. Here it is in case anybody wants to look into it, the issue is addressed at the 12:00 mark. ruclips.net/video/_FTiVDzjsIw/видео.html
Love the HC decks. I was pleasantly surprised that the drive over "ramps" just pop off without tools to make blowing off the deck easy peasy. Looking forward to your next video.
Awesome! I combed through all the videos I could find before purchasing as well. Stay tuned for the next video....all about the cost and not overpaying.
One thing you need to make sure you do after installing the deck is to check your height and level with the gauge they provide in the console to your right and the tool for adjusting each side. You should follow the 1 2 3 marked on the tool in order and use it in the positions marked on the tool against the deck each spring when you put it back on.
Well done. Sweet machine, could you talk about the 4 wheel drive on this machine? I have an old JD x534. Great machine but lack many of this tractors features, More videos !!!!!!!
Excellent video, thank you. Did u have to attach the auto connect pto previously. Did u remove it from the hanger bracket prior? It’s my understanding the auto connect PTO store in the hanger bracket during winter use?
No, I ordered the auto connect as an option from the factory. There is no hangar bracket at all, that is for the non-auto connect PTO, the entire assembly that lowers down to grab the mower deck and engage with the PTO shaft self-stores underneath the mower by raising the hydraulic lever to its highest position while the dial knob on the floor board is in the transport/remove deck position. It just stays up there by itself. A hangar bracket is specifically mentioned in the manual for the non auto connect version.
Ok thanks. I also Ordered a 54in blower so I believe my auto connect PTO Will store in the hanger bracket so that my blower can connect to the PTO. Different from urs I think. Thanks again.
U do have the hanger bracket installed (3:34 mark) u just don’t utilize it with ur blade since ur not using PTO in winter time. So u get to have ur PTO attached at all times. Sorry for the repeated posts
@@danielcrafton6676 Oh cool, learn something new every day, that’s really the only reason I’m making these videos, when I was researching it’s hard to find out certain things from Deere videos or literature. Thanks and post all you want, someday all this will help somebody trying to learn more or make a better informed purchase decision.
Thank you sir! I watched ALL your videos as I was researching and I’m trying to pay it forward a bit if I can. Doing a video makes me appreciate your work all the more, it’s not easy to get the angles or do things by yourself and record, don’t get me started on editing and trying to remember what I was trying to say, or meant to say, lol.
Hi, thanks for watching, this video ruclips.net/video/3FCbuXKwVQw/видео.html will show you more clearly what I think you’re asking. Let me know if you need additional info and I’ll be happy to help or make a separate video.
Thanks for watching. No, mine has never gotten stuck but I observed something that might apply to you. I use a mat under my deck to keep it from sliding on the concrete, (this is in reference to the recommendation in the manual to A. Have your deck on a level surface, B.Connect your deck on the grass to keep it from sliding; one time I was hooking up and I did not have the deck evenly placed on the mat so that one side of the deck was on the mat and the other side was not, when I lowered to set the height on the anti-scalp wheels I could see a little binding occur as the anti-scalp wheel posts moved up inside the shafts. I noted that the uneven surface probably put a little sideways force on the posts and decided to change my routine a bit in the future and lock the anti-scalp wheels in the up position when lowering the deck to avoid the potential for binding during this process.
Great question. Caveat: wasn’t $16,000 before Biden. Ultimately the answer lies in what is your main use case, mine is mowing and snow moving. The finish mowing is superior on this machine as compared to the 1025. Also tire tread damage plays a factor on grass. The 1025 would be a great choice where mowing is less important vs bucket or hoe, 3 point accessories etc.
I am sad to tell you that when I purchased this pre-nonsense late 2020 I paid less for the Mower, with 54" Deck, with Mulch Control kit, with Quick Hitch Front Snow Plow Blade including hydraulic lifter, with Ballast Box with Quick Attach Rear Kit, with Front Fender Kit, with 5 years worth of home maintenance kits, and four extra sets of blades for less than the BASE price of just the mower NOW without any deck or accessories. Just the mower was $11,849 at the time, now it's $14,669. Today, with all the attachments and accessories you'd pay $20k minimum for my set-up. Put another way.... I also bought a new Z970R around the same time and if I took all the money I paid for both the X739 and Z970R together...today I could buy just ONE of them for the same money.
Good Afternoon!! I just bought one of these. I love the garbage can holder on the back. Can you provide me with the information for the set up you are using. I have a very steep driveway and it would be very beneficial. I can provide you my email if you need it. Thank you for the video, it helped me make my purchasing decision.
You’re welcome, glad the video was beneficial. Here is the hitch receiver I used heavyhitch.com/product/john-deere-x-series-2-receiver-hitch-hx2/ Here is the cansporter cansporter.com/products/dual-cart-carrier You will find cheaper and different products for each of these items, but I don’t regret my purchases, both are excellent and solved my trash toting problems, especially in winter. Congrats on the new machine!
OMG!!! I need this in my life!!! Currently I have been hauling 2 cans, 1 at a time a little junky trailer down about a 1/4 mile gravel road to the spot where the trash truck will grab them. This video and the links just made my day!!!
@@74jcorvin Awesome! Great product, has been very useful for me. I looked into other types that were cheaper that basically drag the trash can by the wheels but at $70 a pop per trash can I felt pretty certain the wheels on the cans would disintegrate rapidly and that made the expense of this unit a better choice for me.

Thanks, I've not had one problem with it.
Very helpful, I just bought a 2024 X739, trying to get a grasp of the capabilities and basic functions, thank you!
I can't thank you enough. This is going to help me big time when I switch from snow blower to cutting deck. you did an awesome job. The wheel for the hydraulic fluid is something so easy to forget. Thanks, again.
This is an amazing Garden Tractor! I really dislike my current zero turn and would like to upgrade to one of these mowers!

Thanks, yep. I discovered that by grabbing one and it popped off in my hand easily. Great for cleaning.
Your close-up views are excellent. Thanks
Many thanks!
Nice setup, Im planning on buying a 758 when the strike ends
I love your video I am looking at buying one now. Beautiful machine!!!
Thank you, problem free since purchase, highly recommend!
Beautiful !
Now, if only I could afford to buy one !☹
Yep, I doubt I'd buy it these days, gone up a good 40% in price since I purchased.
Yup, awesome engineering. JD's are the still the best! Forget all those junk zero turns!
Thanks for this video. It’s helping me make an informed decision on buying this exact machine.
Awesome! I combed through all the videos I could find before purchasing as well. Stay tuned for the next video....all about the cost and not overpaying.

Yes, always a good practice to make sure your deck is level for a great cut. Thanks for watching.
and to verify tire pressure before any deck leveling is done.
that was great. Just what I needed to see. Thank you so much.
Glad it was helpful.
Well done. Sweet machine, could you talk about the 4 wheel drive on this machine?
I have an old JD x534. Great machine but lack many of this tractors features,

Great video showing the whole process.
Thanks very much
Nice! Thanks for sharing, well done!
Hello from Southern Maryland as well
Excellent video, very informative. Thank you.
Did the valve you opened near the hydraulic disconnects come on the tractor or did you add it?
Thanks for watching, the valve came with the tractor.

@@nopresetsnarklimit1675 LOL yes its not easy and makes your job twice as long. I got burnt out haha
Why is it only 360p?otherwise great overview!
can you elaborate a little bit more on your garbage hitch like can you make your hitch go up and down into the garbage cans?

does your deck ever get stuck and won't go down because I have a x738 and it happens sometimes

@@nopresetsnarklimit1675 no problem love the videos, thanks
What are those mag wheels made of?
Aluminum
Does this tractor realy have all whell lock
Yes
serious question why pay $16000 for this? and not just get a 1025r

@@nopresetsnarklimit1675 You got a good deal. Thats a forever machine. I bought a 1991 LX186 new in 91 and it still runs like it did when it was new.
Is it full time four wheel steering? How is that on hills with the four wheel steering
Hi, yes full time 4 wheel steer. No problems on hills, firmly planted.
So I bought me one on Friday with the 60” auto connect deck. It is absolutely amazing on the hills.
