The John Deere X744 mower is manufactured at the John Deere Assembly Plant located in Horicon, Wisconsin. If you are looking for something similar to this machine in the X700 series of ride on garden tractors, then you should check out the John Deere X729 or the John Deere X740 lawn mower. The JD X744 lawn mower is powered by a liquid-cooled 3-cylinder Yanmar engine taking diesel.
The engine is housed in a 4×4 MFWD 4WD chassis giving the John Deere X744 a total weight of 480 kg (1, 060 lbs). The length of this JD ride-on mower is exactly 2 m (78. 8 inches). The width of this machine is 1. 18 m (46. 8 inches). The wheelbase is 1. 38 m. As it is mainly used on grass, both the front and rear wheels are very wide. Each of the front wheels is 0. 2 m (8 inches) wide, while the rear wheels are 0. 3 m (12 inches) wide. This means that even when riding on very soft ground, it won’t leave string marks.
With its incredibly well-welded frame and Category 1 3-point hitch, the John Deere X744 can accommodate a wide range of attachments to the front, rear and center of the machine. The JD X744 can work with either a 48-inch or a 54-inch mower deck. The largest platform it can accommodate is a 62-inch platform. Just remember that if you’re going to be using the 62-inch mower deck, you’re much more likely to get bogged down or choked on clippings if the grass is wet or very long compared to smaller decks. Larger versions of this ride on mower include the John Deere X748. For more information about this model, you can check it on the official JD site by clicking here.
