","history":"The John Deere SX75 was part of the Sabre series aimed at providing a value-oriented option for consumers. It was intended to be an easy-to-use and maintain riding mower for residential use. There were no major redesigns during its production run; the changes were typically limited to minor cosmetic updates.","maintenanceTips":"

Belt Inspection: Regularly inspect the primary traction belt and deck belt for wear, cracks, or fraying. Replace belts every 2-3 years, or sooner if damaged, to prevent loss of power or drive.
Blade Sharpening: Sharpen the mower blades at least twice per season for a clean cut and to reduce stress on the engine and belts. Dull blades tear the grass, making it susceptible to disease.
Filter Changes: Change the engine oil and air filter annually, or every 50 hours of use, to ensure optimal engine performance and longevity. Clean the air filter more frequently if operating in dusty conditions.
