Deere 3 wheeler, what is it?

megotatractor · Sep 4, 2009

Hi, I saw a pair of handy looking mowers on a trailer the other day. They were John Deere brand with front mounted decks and single rear dolly wheel, and probably zero turn type. Can anyone tell me the model number? I don't think Deere makes them anymore but they look awfully manueverable and handy for trimming under bushes and trees and I want to keep an eye out

What would really be handy is mowing out over ditches and banks with it.

My 2210 can mow a pretty steep ditch and I had actually considered having a custom front mount frame built for the mower deck. what I had in mind was sitting on one of these 3 wheelers and trimming as opposed to pushing a push mower around my 3.5 acres, getting too old for that.

I think you saw an F510. They are nice but getting harder to find

If it looked like this, it could either be a F510 or F525.

My next door neighbor has something like this but not a JD.
That thing is quick and maneuverable.
