Read what TractorByNet members think about the John Deere X749 Subcompact Tractor
X749, 4WD, 4WS, 62 inch Deck, 24 HP 3 Cyl Yanmar Diesel
Model Year: 2011
Decided to stay with the Green Machine because of past performance of JD equipment. I liked the idea of 4 wheel drive for early spring mowing here in Ky since it is usually wet into May. The 4 wheel steering is great for getting close around our many trees and flowers, the cutting radius is about a 24 inch circle w/62" deck. The diesel engine never lugs down, even in tall grass. We seldom get deep snow here so I I included a 60 inch hydraulic operated front blade. I mow approximately 4 acres. A great set up and Nothing of such quality is cheap.
Pros: Everything operates as represented and as expected.
Cons: None.
