The John Deere LA140 weighs 237 kg. It is 1. 75 m (69 in) long when not fitted with any accessories such as baggers or snow blowers or front blades. It has a maximum width of 1. 54 m (60. 5 inches) when the mower deck is attached. This is despite the fact that the mower deck has a cutting width of only 48 inches. The extra width comes from the fact that it’s made of 12-gauge steel and its discharge chute located on the side of the mower deck. The mower deck is highly adjustable. It has 13 separate mowing heights, each varying by just o. 25 inches, from 1 inch from the ground to 4 inches from the ground. The highest part of the JD LA135 mower is 1. 17 m from the ground.
The engine that powers the John Deere LA140 is a Briggs and Stratton gasoline engine that is a 2-cylinder V-twin. A 12 volt battery is used to start the engine via an ignition key, which is then charged by a 14 amp alternator once the engine is running. The engine has a size of 0. 725 liters (44 cubic inches) and a power of 23 hp. It uses a filter of paper and foam elements in the air intake. The JD LA135 is automatic thanks to its hydrostatic transmission. This means no need to change gear, just 2 pedals; one to go forward and one to go backwards.
The John Deere LA140 comes with a mulch cover as standard, but you also have the option of purchasing a bagger to collect grass clippings immediately after mowing. The fact that the JD LA140 comes with cruise control makes it incredibly easy to operate, especially if you’re mowing a big, open, boring patch of grass like a ball field or public park.
