From the operator's platform to the mower deck, John Deere QuikTrak™ Mowers have a compact and functional design:
Whether mowing hills or on the level, trimming or mowing straight-away, the operator of a John Deere QuikTrak is able to affect the performance of the machine with their body:
John Deere QuikTraks are designed, tested, and manufactured to provide the best commercial mowing machines available:
A well-designed mower deck can make the difference between just getting the job done and getting eye-catching results. The 7-gauge, 0.177-in. (4.6-mm) fabricated Mulch On Demand mower deck delivers a high-quality cut in diverse conditions to enhance mowing performance and the opportunity for profit for lawn-care businesses.
Key features of the 7-Iron Mulch On Demand mower Deck:
A powerful vacuum effect is created by the deck's unique air-flow design, which pulls more grass upright so that the blades can cut more evenly.
The wide-discharge opening and raised deflector provide even clipping dispersal for an excellent finished appearance when the mulch baffles are in the open position.
Caster wheels and anti-scalp rollers contribute to a smooth, even cutting job:
Mower cutting height can be set from 1.5 in. (3.8 cm) to 5 in. (12.7 cm) in 0.25-in. (0.64-cm) increments:
Mower deck shields are easy to remove, with knobs providing access to the drive belt and other service points.
The Mulch On Demand mower deck delivers unprecedented levels of productivity and versatility to commercial mower operations. With the ability to change between side discharging and mulching with the convenient dash-mounted switch, keeping most clippings out of landscaping features is extremely easy.
A dependable electric linear actuator is used to close and open the mulching baffles. Deck can be converted from a wide-open side-discharge mode to a fully-chambered mulching mode or any position in-between by holding down on the electric switch that is conveniently located on the dash.
High-quality, adjustable control arms are used to permit precise adjustment and long, trouble-free operation.
Heavy-duty mulch and discharge baffles open and close reliably and completely with the touch of a switch.
When the discharge and mulch baffles are in the closed position, the three blade chambers are separated just the right amount for optimum mulching performance.
