    X739 transmission adjustment

    Hi folks, I’ve had my machine for cutting and snow removal for about 7 years now and it has been flawless with routine maintenance. I would like to make an adjustment in the transmission. When my foot is off the pedal it still creeps a little forward. I do not own a technical manual and bringing...

    Why should I NOT buy a new LX 4500 or LX 4900?

    Sorry if I'm rambling.... Im looking at some land, about 10 acres and will need a machine to run a 6 foot brush-hog, grooming mower or belly mower, grapple etc. I like the Deere 3046R, NH non-CVT Boomers about 45 hp, and Massey 1742, all tier 4. No Tier 3's left. I think about 32-35 PTO hp will...

    X739 mini review

    Hi folks. I have about 15 hours on my X739. I'm coming out of commercial deere equipment for the leaves and snow (1435) and homeowner exmark ztr for cutting the lawn. The commercial front mower was too heavy for routine use on the lawn (shade lawn). I purchased the X739 this summer with a 60...

    X739 reverse button

    Love my new X739. Quiet, smooth operation. Everything works as it should. The HC deck is superb, the HDAP tires don't scuff or harm even my soft shade lawn. Seems well made. I'm getting used to the drive over deck which is a bit fussy but the concept is good. The only thing that is annoying...

    x739 questions

    Hi Folks, I am in the process of downsizing my equipment from heavy duty commercial machinery to an X739, I believe. I have a couple of questions for those who use this machine or a similar unit. 1. With a 60 inch HC deck, how does it cut? I am coming out of a deere 60 inch front mower and...

    Downsizing, I guess

    I have been a stranger on this forum for quite some time. I am ready to downsize my intense toy. I have a 4wd JD 1435 60 inch front mower, MCS 600 high dump collection system, Curtis cab, 60 inch snowblower, 60 inch broom all made for this machine. In 2005 I swapped engines upping the hp from...

    Air in the tank?

    Hi there... I have a 1435 front mower re-powered with a 36 hp yanmar engine. Runs and starts great except when the fuel tank is low. Then it acts like there is air in the system requiring a bleed to turn over. All hoses have already been changed and double clamped. Fuel filter has been...
