Maintenance Tips

Replace the mower deck belt every 2-3 years, or sooner if you notice signs of wear or slippage. A worn belt can affect the quality of your cut.
Sharpen your mower blades at least twice per season, or more frequently if you mow in sandy or rocky conditions. Sharp blades provide a cleaner cut and are easier on your mower's engine.
Change the engine oil and filter annually, or every 50 hours of use, whichever comes first. Regular oil changes help prolong the life of your engine.
Before storing your John Deere X145 for the winter, add a fuel stabilizer to the gas tank to prevent fuel degradation. Disconnect the battery and store it in a cool, dry place.
