Hey guys, don't keep it private. I saw an outfront JD ZTR at the dealers the other day, and was impressed at easy and accessible it looked to service. Do they cut well, run well, stay in good repair?

I've got the 620 with the 60inch 7 iron deck<br>and the bagger and it works great. the only problem i see is in wet tall grass it bogs down a little, but my dealer said that have a fix something to the carb and that will get it some more power.I picked it up may 1st and have about 145 hours on it.

What did they do to the carb. to give it more power?

[mowin at the lake]

I dont remember.... That was a long time ago..
i think it was some type of dealer update on the carb.

We own an f687 (620 with an extra 3 hp) and it feels a little low on power running the collection system. Not sure for regular mowing yet but will definitely have an opinion by the end of this season. I can say that it follows the contours in a lawn very well.

great mower 02 F-680 60" 7-iron deck MCS system off now, first 20hp Kohler blew at 750hrs repowered. I used the MCS for 3 years, until the plastic blower housing wore through, now I just use it for wide areas, it sits in my shop until it's needed. Nothing beats the ride & manicured look of a front mower, the 60" 7-Iron 5.75 baffle is the best deck IMO out their our 7-iron decks underside is rust free, cheat though Fluid Film. I have bought and sold many commercial ZTRS, The John Deere F-680 seems to always avoid the axe, it's a workhorse reliable, never a problem with the mower, just wore the MCS out.

Riggs, Keep me posted, on how you like the JD820A, I love the 7-Iron decks i have got stories of how much abuse the 7Iron decks take, not me though my employee's. Be careful that deck will destroy anything you "bump" with it. How much for the 820A? Kawasaki power?

I picked up my first commercial rig today. Its a JD 717a and I absolutely love it. Cuts like a dream, speedy enough for my use, and that 7IronII deck is rugged as hell. To put it into perspective, since I'm driving a zero turn for the first time in 10 years, i clipped my back yard gate by a quarter inch, and it ripped that sucker clean off the 4x4, deck didn't budge a bit.

Picked it up brand new for 6k, 3 year financing at 0% interest. Guess that is a pretty good price.

Have yet to cut grass with it... but its a 25hp Kawasaki 60" 7ironII I payed $8995 The dealer talked me out of the mulch on demand I have no idea why but he said its not worth it plus mulch on demand 60" is only available on the next model up. Only 54" is available on the 820A. The Service Access is incredible everything is so easy to get to especially the Engine oil filter and the starter. Extremly easy to ajust the mowerdeck just push on the foot pedal and turn the dial. 12mph Travel speed. Ive had it for two days and believe it will be hard to keep clean that Damn GREEN PAINT. The vaccum of the deck is outrageous. Self Diagnostics is a plus. And i believe that Bump theory is definately true cause that deck doesnt even budge with me standing on it. But I love it So far I just hope this snow goes gone soon cause I dont do any snow removal except my own driveway :hammerhead:

I Have A 2005 737 With Over 400hrs On It And It Is The Best Mower I Have Ever Owned. The 7-iron Deck Design Gives The Best Looking Cut I Have Seen. For Example: You Can Cut A Lawn From Outside In And Windrow The Clippings And Then Back Over Them While Cutting And They Will All But Disappear. It Does This So Well I Do Not Even Use My Mulch Kit Anymore During Fall Clean-ups.
