RIVERLIVER FINALLY GOT A NEW X500

[RIVERLIVER]

I FINALLY TOOK DELIVERY ON MAY 10TH AND I LOVE IT. HOWEVER BEFORE I HAD .5 HRS ON IT I RAN OVER A NAIL IN THE GRASS AND FLATTENED MY RIGHT FRONT TIRE. WENT DOWN TODAY AND HAD A TUBE PUT IN IT. I COULDNT BELIEVE THE TIRE PRESURE THAT JOHN DEERE HAD IN THE TIRES. THE FRONTS WERE BOTH 25PSI AND THE REARS WERE BOTH 30PSI, WHATS UP WITH THAT?

Hello RIVERLIVER welcome to TBN. I bought a new X500 on April 27. Agree with you that X500 is an awesome mower! :thumbsup: Thanks for the heads-up on the tire pressure. Owner's manual says front 14 PSI, rear 10 PSI. Checked mine and they were in the ballpark, front 16 PSI, rear 9 PSI. Wonder if yours were inflated at factory and dealer didn't check them?

Also don't forget to change your oil and filter at 8 hours. My dealer said that's important.

Welcome. X500 is a wonderful machine. You are not alone on the tire pressure. I took my tires in to JD dealership a few months after i bought it to be loaded with rim guard. The too came back at around 30psi. I made a mess out of my garage floor letting pressure out. Looked a bit like a CSI crime scene.

Enjoy your tractor!
