John Deere X390 Riding Mower Parts
The John Deere X390 is a popular riding mower known for its smooth ride and powerful performance. Typically manufactured between 2016 and 2020, this model features a Kawasaki engine delivering around 22 horsepower. It was primarily offered with a 48-inch mower deck, making it ideal for medium to large-sized lawns.
The John Deere X390 was introduced as part of the X300 series, offering a step up in features and performance compared to lower-end models. It's powered by a Kawasaki FS691V engine, a 22 HP (16.4 kW) V-twin gasoline engine with a displacement of 726cc (44.3 cu-in). This model utilizes a hydrostatic transmission, providing smooth and responsive speed control. The X390 was primarily available with a 48-inch Accel Deep mower deck, designed for superior cut quality and even clipping dispersal. Key features of the X390 include power steering, hydraulic deck lift, and a comfortable high-back seat. This model is well-suited for residential use on properties ranging from half an acre to several acres, offering a balance of power, comfort, and maneuverability. Its robust engine and durable construction distinguish it from more basic riding mowers in the John Deere lineup.

Maintenance Tips
- Belt Inspection: Regularly inspect the mower deck and drive belts for wear and tear. Replace belts every 200-300 hours of use, or sooner if cracks, fraying, or slippage are observed.
- Blade Sharpening: Sharpen the mower blades at least twice per season, or more frequently if you mow over sandy or abrasive terrain. Dull blades tear the grass, leading to an unhealthy lawn.
- Filter Changes: Change the engine oil and oil filter every 50 hours of operation. Replace the air filter annually or more often if operating in dusty conditions.
- Seasonal Storage: Before storing the mower for the winter, stabilize the fuel, change the oil and filter, and disconnect the battery. Store the mower in a dry, protected location.
