The John Deere D140 is very similar to the John Deere D130 in that they both have the same engine, the Briggs and Stratton ’40’ producing 22bhp. This 2-cylinder engine also transfers power to the wheels via a Kanzaki Tuff Torq T40 hydrostatic transmission that gives you endless forward and reverse gears. The fuel tank capacity of the JD D140 is 15. 1 liters (4 US gallons) and is located towards the rear of the machine.
The front wheels of the John Deere D140 measure 15×6-6 (15-inch diameter, 6-inch width, 6-inch rim diameter) while the rear tires measure 20×10-8 (20-inch diameter, 10-inchwide, 8-inch diameter rims). While the tires as well as the machine itself may seem quite large, the JD D140 has a very small turning radius of just 0. 46m (18in). The seat of this mower is very well designed to offer the operator maximum comfort during long working hours. It is 0. 38 m (15 inches) high for back support and can be adjusted up to 0. 14 m (5. 5 inches) forward or backward to ensure a comfortable working position.
The cutting deck on the John Deere D140 has a 48-inch cutting width and is made of heavy-duty 12-gauge steel. The mower deck has 13 different operating positions, from 1 inch off the ground to 4 inches above the ground. It can be adjusted in 1/4-inch increments, meaning the operator will always be able to get more or less the exact cutting height they want. While the mower deck’s cutting width is 48 inches, its overall width is much larger at 1. 53 m (60 inches). This is due to the fact that it has quite a large download channel. The total weight of the machine is 223 kg without accessories and fuel. If you’re looking for a larger version of this mower, check out the John Deere D150 Garden Tractor.
