Get your hands on the new John Deere M and R Series Walk-Behind Mowers

Upgrades to John Deere M and R series walk behind mowers were designed with the operator in mind in terms of ergonomics, ease of use, and overall command over the machine. This meant focusing on features such as the layout of controls and hand placement in order to guarantee the mower can move easily across any terrain. Operator fatigue was also a top consideration when redesigning these pieces of equipment. Moving the machine forward can be accomplished simply by squeezing the handles to unlock the spring-loaded neutral locks; by gently pressing the handles, operators can slow down the machine almost effortlessly.

The inclusion of a hydrostatic drive system means more power and a smoother operation with positive reverse. In addition, speed can be easily adjusted on the new M and R series walk behind mowers thanks to infinite ground speed adjustments. When in a tight space, operators can back out without any issue with reverse speeds up to 3 mph. For jobs that involve slopes or side hills, operators will enjoy improvements in weight distribution when handling this equipment.

20% faster ground speeds and the ability to climb curbs with ease are just a couple extra reasons why these walk behind mowers are a top choice for any task.
