Dealer wants $375 to install the 3pt., they said it takes about 3 1/2 hours and requires the removal of the fender deck. I guess that's so they don't have to lay on their backs and maybe have better access to those hard to reach nuts?

Yeah, for that kind of money, I'd probably do it myself again. But it's silly to say you have to remove the fender deck. If you have a lift (any dealer will), it wouldn't be bad at all if you could do it standing up. BTW, the instructions say nothing about removing the fender deck. I think the dealer is hosing you. Might try another dealer.

I'll be doing it myself but was curious what the dealers time and labor charges were, looks like around $100 an hour, yikes!

For me it will probably be a winter project where I can take my time and if need be buy the right wrenches with the money saved in labor charges.

The mower arrived a few days ago:) R. Front.jpgL. Front.jpgJD X739 026.jpgJD X739 015.jpg

It had 0.4 hours on the meter so was fresh out of the box and other than about a weeks delay caused by a shortage of power flow hoppers everything went smoothly with the dealer.

Almost immediately I took the deck off and crawled under the tractor to scope out the 3pt install. It doesn't look as tight under there as I imagined and if the fender deck needs to come off that looks like a pretty simple job, remove the seat and about six other bolts, unplug some wires and it should lift off.

Haven't mowed yet (its raining of course) but just running around the drive way I was impressed by how tight a circle this big thing can turn with the 4 wheel steering.

Looking forward to the next dry day!

Congrats. All pretty and clean. Let us know how you like the bagger. Does it attach with click-n-go? Have fun with the 3pt install. Maybe you'll find it easier than I did.

Yep, click and go on the hopper, it comes off in a few seconds and the power flow blower takes about a minute to remove, its a whole lot better system than on my old 318.

Added the brush bar before I got it dirty, very well made and easy to install/take off if needed. Feels like it could take a pretty good impact without bending which is good for me since I tend to park by feel :).

Thank You for the pics, My X 739 should arrive between the 9th and 14th of July. I mow about 5-6 acres some with my tractor using a 3 PT John Deere 261 mower, But looking forward to mowing around trees and such without the constant reversing. Did you get a free hat? Lol.

I got 2 hats! A Washington Tractor when placing the order and then a John Deere on delivery.

Congrats on the X739, you are going to love it! The maneuverability around trees and planting areas is amazing , I have probably cut my backing up by 90%. And on some damp slopes where my 2 wheel drive mower would often spine a tire the AWD doesn't even notice there's a traction issue.

Worked with jerry ruble and found out he has cancer, was tough finding that out. Stopped by the dealer and spoke to Dave supler he was more than happy to get her ordered. Means the world to me to have that kind of service. He could of said jerry will be back next week but he didnt, he went above and beyond. Great bunch of guys. Spoke to Jerry today he missed one day from surgery, and he was ready to help me. Was concerned he was doing ok he said he was fine. Hard to find people these days likye him. Very proud to buy from washington tractor. Makes the deal even better. 9th through the 14 will be a long week. Looking forward to it. Thanks for tge congrats, right back at you. Cheers.
