john deere x700

I have a JD x729 and have lots of sports bottles that just don't fit the cupholder right. It's narrower at the bottom, and when I swing around turns, my bottles seem like they're going to fly out of the holder. I assume it's the same cupholder on all the x700 series. Wonder if anyone has come...

I had a rear pto installed by a dealer for my x730 They didn't properly vent the PTO assembly, so the oil wasn't properly circulated. Watch this video. I dodged a real bullet, once I vented, my hydro oil went down well past the danger zone.

J D site is giving me the run-around . I ask the question "does the X700 have liquid cooling ?" They immediately take me to some other Mod . X 7 - - and never state if the X700 is air or water cooled . Please tell me which it is . The X700 only . Thanks

I have a x-700 with just over 500 hours on it, I can be mowing along and it just quits, but it does start right back up, if I feather the choke, sometimes I can keep it going, other times it still die's, it will run for hours without doing this, or 2 to 3 times in an hour, nothing consistent, it...

I just purchased a used X734 to replace my Kubota G4200H. I'll sometimes use my LT to store and extract my trailer from my back yard, especially when the ground is wet and I don't want to drive a truck back there. My empty trailer tongue weight is 350-375 lbs. So, I'm needing to fab a new hitch...

I went back a couple pages and didn't see anything posted. While on JD's website, I see certain models like the X739 listed as 2018 only. There were a few others as well. Is there a redesign coming for certain models or are they being dropped or? Any insight would be appreciated...

Good morning, A quick question. Is anyone running a PTO generator on their x700 series, particularly the diesel? I'd like to know your comments on performance. Does it hold the loads fairly well. How does the throttle respond to load changes (holding frequency). How much resistive load...

Has anyone adjusted the slide rails for the JD739 seat. The owners manual says to remove the four bolts connecting the rails to the tractor body. But, since you cannot see the underside of where these four bolts come through the tractor body, my concern is there is a nut on the underside that...

The X734/54 have narrower tires than the rest of the X700 series including the X739 which is also AWS and has the wider tires. Does anyone know why? Can the wider tires be put on the X734/54?

Hi all, I'm new to this forum. I've actually used this website forum for research over the last couple of years - mainly to troubleshoot my JD L130 transmission problems. Last year, my L130 transmission, like many others, decided to poop on me. You know.. the classic "After 45 mins of use...

Has anyone made the JD front fender kit fit on a X734 AWS? I see JD says it only fits the 2 wheel steer models. I'm wondering how or what might be needed to make them fit as I HATE seeing the salty water spray up on my $15,000 machine when I sweep snow and snow blow at my business. I have...

Hi guys Im new to this forum, wondering if anyone has seen an implement like this. I now have a J.D. dethacher on my 265 lawn tractor with the hand pull to lift. I rake up sticks in my yard into big piles then grab em up with a grapple bucket and skiddy. Im looking at a x500 or x700 series John...

Just got finished building a house last fall. Our old house was on property in town and I could cut everything with my push mower in about an hour and a half so I never purchased a rider. Our new property sits on about 1.5 acres with the back yard, about .75 acres, that is hillside. There is a...

Anyone that use to have an X700 Ultimate vintage 2006-2012 trade in for a new 2013 X700 series? If so what are the noticeable differences after using it?

I have a 2012 X740. My hydraulic system is 924 PSI at 4.5 GPM. Does my tractor have enough hydraulic power to use this hydraulic cart? Cub Cadet Parts I am concerned that if I splurge and buy this cart, once I get it home and fill it full of gravel, that my hydraulics will not be strong enough...

Question is in relation to a 2013 x738 and others that function the same way. X738 4 WD, If the right front wheel is spinning such as being stuck in the mudd, Should the Left front engage and if nothing else spin also ? Rear tires do spin and the differential does engage when stepping on the...

Do any of you guys have a 3 point on your X series tractor? I've had a 3 point on my X748 since it was new 7 years ago. I don't use it much, but I do have a 647 tiller, a disk, and a sprayer. I've always noticed that it seems too wide. The arms have to be pulled all the way in to make it the...

Has anyone ever done this? I wanted to add a work light to the rear fender of my 2012 X740 to shed some light behind me when working in the dark. I went to my dealership on the weekend to order a light kit that is listed as an accessory for the X series machines, only for the dealer to tell me...

For anyone contemplating purchasing a new X700 Signature Series GT. Got this tip from a forum member on another site...

Interesting stuff. That drive over deck with auto connect sure looks nice ;-) That should say: "also you can price one" X700 Signature Series Tractors

I know this is obviously too late, as I have already purchased my X740 with the 54 inch deck. However, I am wondering if all the claims about poor cut quality are true? How would gator blades be on this deck? Right now I have not cut anything with the deck and it will still be another month or...

There has been a lot of speculation as to whether the decks for the new 2013 x7's will fit the prior models or not. It is reasonable to assume that they will since the wheelbase has not changed, but it would sure be nice to know for sure. Mounting attach points could mess with the swapping...

Guys, Just out of curiosity, who makes the 4WD steerable axle on the X700? Is it Tuff Torq or JD? I see that the X700 is using the Tuff Torq K92 Transaxle, so I was wondering if the steerable front 4WD axle was the Tuff Torq KXH13. By the way, how good are the transaxles made by Tuff Torq...

I was expecting a bit more than this short teaser but it's better than nothing. I searched the forum and didn't find this, sorry if it's a repost. X700 Signature Series Mower Deck X700 Signature Series Tractors Preview JohnDeere.com We stopped at one of the largest JD dealers around after...

Guys, I am currently in the market for a new John Deere X700 series tractor with a 7-Iron mowing deck. I am only going to use this tractor for mowing the farm and nothing else, much like any residential owner who also might do some snowblowing. Now, I love a diesel engine for the torque...

Hi Guys, I have a JD 4520 and Scag TigerCat to maintain the family farm. I live about 400 miles away but I try to get up there every one to two months to do as many chores as I can. Of course the 4520 takes care of the bigger stuff while the Scag is used to maintain the lawn around the house...

John Deere is now offering $1,000 off the price of new X700 series machines. Last I heard, the new X700 series will be officially revealed next month in February, so it makes sense they are starting the rebates now. Residential Save $1,000 USD on X700 Select Series

The title says it. I maybe be selling my john deere 455 with the 54 inch snow blade and hydraulic quick hitch and angling setup. Has anyone bought a new one recently? I am wondering what the replacement cost for one to fit a John deere 425. Thank you for any input.

I'm interested in seeing an X700 series tractor, especially a diesel model, in the Atlanta area. But, I can't seem to find a single dealer that stocks them. There are lots of Deere dealers around, but the biggest Deere lawn tractor I've been able to find is the X300. In contrast, almost every...

So, has everyone seen the new X700 series machines? Scroll down a little more than half-way for photos: http://www.mytractorforum.com/showthread.php?t=250573&page=9 At first I didn't like it, but now that I have spent the day searching for information, I am pleased with it. It seems the...

Hi Folks, Is there a matrix somewhere that can help me navigate the 2010-2013 MY changes? I am not talking about small options, colors, etc. but rather substantive mechanical differences, if any. thanks in advance. I am in Central WI and looking for a new/almost new X720/720SE with 7-iron...

I know it it a garden tractor with limited ability with its FEL but there is a company ANBO and it makes grappler/ loaders for subcompacts- could I use this on lets say an x720???

How difficult is it to remove and re-install the 7-Iron mower on a X700 series tractor? Can the gauge wheels be turned sidewise and the mower deck rolled out from under the tractor? I am still trying to decide if I want the 7-Iron mower deck on a X740. I have an older 345 with a 54" deck...

Our X720 seems to be burning better than a gallon and hour, more like 1.5 gallons/hour. We can get about 5-6 hours of mowing time out of a full tank. To us that seems like a lot. Is this about right? We have over 150 hours on it. We were hoping it would get better after it broke in but it hasn't.

Just about settled on buying an x500. Just wonder what I can do with it besides mow. Can I pull a plow, tiller, etc? Wondering if I should bite the bullet and by an x700, but by the time I outfit that I can buy a subcompact tractor.

Is there a way to hang a 25 gallon sprayer on the back of the X700 series besides getting the 3ph? I have used my old sprayer in the cart, but I want to put a new sprayer right on the back. Getting a new mower, but hate to spend $500 on a hitch, just for a sprayer. Thanks, JC

So I have wondered this for a while, what is everyone opinion on 2 wheel steer tractors vs AWS tractors? Here in WV it is hard to find a flat spot, so the majority of our mowing is on hills. We have always had just standard 2 wheel steer tractors in the size range of x 700 series tractors (like...

All - I picked up my new X749 today and had ordered the AM134625 flow control valve to prevent deck travel when using my JBSr. I cannot seem to locate any installation instructions. I do see some commentary out there that it is very simple to do but don't see any info on exactly what to do...

Looking at a used 2007 JD X700 w/ 54" deck. Found it on craigs. 325 hrs. Very good cond. $5850. Are these gas or diesel? Shaft or belt drive? Does the 54" deck cut smooth, even and scatter grass good? Any other specs would help to.

Does anyone 'truly' know what the 3 point hitch lift rating is for the X700 series (can quote scripture)? I can't find anything from Deere's site, and all posts talk vaguely of '..it's about x lbs..' or '..should be about the same as..' etc. It would be nice to know the rating at the lift arm...

Just picked up a used 2010 X700 and the fuel gauge is not working. I don't have a dealer real close to me so I was hoping to try to find out what it is and have them send me the part. When you first turn the key the needle will tick or flicker for a brief second but that's all it does it just...

With the new "1" series Sub-compact tractors introduced, I am thinking that the X700, X500 and X300 series are likely soon to be updated? Has anyone heard anything about a replacement series for the X700's for 2012, or will the X700's be built in 2012 as well? I see the L100 series was updated...

Does any one have any pics of the inside of a John deere x728 hard side cab and of the switchs to operate the windshield wiper and the button to turn the heat on.

My wife says she may sell the X720 and get a BX 1860 or 2360. She's really not too happy with the JD, been in the shop once already and drinks gas like no tomorrow. I tried my best to get her to get the X740 diesel but she wouldn't hear to it. She likes the way the X720 rides and mows but it...

I know this question has arisen many times before, but in my search for a 4000 series unit, I have been searching for a riding mower as well. Now, I would like to hear from people on the famous question, is it better to buy a 2305 for mowing, then to buy a X700 series. I can get a brand new...

I sat on a Kubota BX last night, and was surprised to find that with my more limited right leg mobility these days moving my leg from the forward to reverse pedal on the hydro was an issue. I tried a Massey GC2400, and found it much nicer to reach, but the pedal resistance was pretty...

i was using the tractor the other day with the tractor shovel and got hung up on a tree stub i was moving.the tractor was on a pretty good incline and justshut down. i checked fuel which was 3/4 full ,checked spark,coolent all the simple stuff (i think?) checked fuel filter could blow air right...

Want to buy

Would like to purchase!

Hi all, I am looking for a first tractor for a new proprerty of about 10 acres, with 3 acres to regularly mow. The property is in great shape and I am looking for a mower (which is what I will do 98% of the time). Would there be a big time difference in mowing 3 acres with the X500 with a...

I have been in the market for a new mower for a long time now but just have not made up my mind on what to get yet. Today I came across a 2007 X700 with 62 hours on it for 7K. It has a 48" deck. Was told this was a government lease return. Very good shape. He said there will be room to...

First, I had a lead on a used JD 455 Diesel garden tractor that fell through. Next, I was looking at an X700 that had 11 hours on it but I lost my company and Deere's rebates so new looks better, unless I can find a good deal on a used one. So, I have started looking at the X700 series new...

Hello, I have a x728 which is getting a 3 point hitch and box scraper in two weeks, I know its a limited category 1 hitch which after tons of research I find it can mean its either a Cat. 0 (20 in spacing) with Cat 1 pins or It's a Cat 1 but is limited in that low profile attachments must be...

Does anyone know if you can adapt the delux X700 seat to fit on the 2305? If so does anyone have a picture of the 2305 with the seat on it? I would like to see it and show it to my dealer. I like the 2305 but want a better seat.

Regarding Deere X700 series with Tuff Torque K92 transaxles, the Deere manual has this to say about the fluid: "NOTE: Machine is filled with John Deere Low Viscosity HY-GARDｮ (J20D) transmission oil at the factory. DO NOT mix oils. These machines are equipped with a internal wet disc brake...

Hi, Am considering purchase of a Deere x500 or x700 series tractor. I'd appreciate hearing whether folks think all wheel steering is a big benefit (unfortunately, it looks like it only comes with the turf tires on the x500 series). Also, I know that liquid cooling will likely prolong engine...

I'm considering a purchase of an x500 or x700 series and wonder if any of you have some input to share on their utility, value, and ground clearance. I am currently using a Craftsman GT5000...although it runs strong and cuts through some thick grass and brush, it gets stuck all the time on...

I found this little tidbit on Deere's site today: http://www.deere.com/en_US/govsales/purchaseguide/2006PG/TOC.pdf ADDED IN EDIT: Well the whole thing was there earlier, but now I can only get the the Table of Contents!! I'm not sure what happened between this morning and this afternoon. Scott
