Features



18.5-hp (13.8-kW) engine18.5-hp (13.8-kW) engine
Engine oil and fuel filtersEngine oil and fuel filters

The S240 Tractor comes with a premium engine, the same as used in some Select Series™ X300 models:

  • Large cleanout ports, integrated into the engine shroud, are located over the cylinder heads to allow for easy inspection and removal of any debris that may have collected there.
  • Premium engine oil and air filtering systems and cooling design provide increased reliability and engine life.

The 18.5-hp (13.8-kW) V-twin engine provides plenty of power and torque to handle tough mulching, mowing, and bagging conditions:

  • V-twin cylinder design for greater torque, lower vibration, and improved sound quality
  • Electronic ignition for fast starts
  • Cast-iron cylinder liners for longer engine life
  • Overhead valves for excellent power and fuel economy
  • Full-pressure lubrication and oil filter for cleaner oil, prolonging engine life and extending the time between oil changes
    • Also more effective when operating the tractor on an incline
  • In-line fuel filter for reliable operation
Engine speed lever and spring-loaded choke leverEngine speed lever and spring-loaded choke lever
Engine hood in open positionEngine hood in open position

The engine speed lever and choke control lever are separate controls:

  • The engine speed lever is easy to use - there is no need to worry about pushing too far and engaging the choke as on single throttle/choke lever systems.
  • The choke lever is spring loaded so the operator cannot accidentally operate the tractor with the choke on.

 Engine hood opens wide for easy access to service points:

  • It is easy to inspect and clean the engine area.
  • Important service points are exposed.
  • Cleanout ports designed into the engine shroud make cleaning the engine cooling fins easy.
  • The high-quality engine used in the S240 does not require an 8-hour oil and filter change because improvements in the manufacturing process and quality of parts, components, and oils have eliminated the need for the short interval oil change requirement.
Fuel tank has gauge to show fuel level from the operator's seat

Convenient fuel-filler openingConvenient fuel-filler opening

The fuel tank gauge shows how much fuel is in the tank, and can be seen without leaving the operator's seat:

  • Easy to check the fuel level
  • Convenient location

Fuel tank:

  • Capacity is 2.4 U.S. gal. (9.08 L).
  • Fuel-filler opening is conveniently located under the seat. 
    • Filling the tank without spilling is easy.
    • The tethered fuel tank cap is more convenient.
    • The sealed fuel cap helps keep vapors inside the tank.
    • The tractor has a California Air Resources Board (CARB) certified engine for reduced air pollution.

42-in. (107-cm) Edge cutting system blades42-in. (107-cm) Edge cutting system blades

The Edge cutting system has been trademarked to emphasize the advantages of the John Deere mower deck designs. They give superior convenience, performance, and reliability:

  • The deep-deck mower design lifts grass for a clean, even cut.
  • The smooth underside of mower prevents grass buildup and evenly disperses grass clippings.
  • The rolled outer edge of the deck provides extra strength and protection.
  • Dual-stage E-coat and powder paint coatings provide extra protection from rust.

S240 Tractor's mower deck features a number of durability upgrades compared to comparable John Deere 100 Series and competitive mower decks:

  • Premium spindles (same as used on comparable Select Series™ decks)
  • Larger anti-scalp wheels
  • Upgraded fixed idler sheave bearing (increases life in dirty conditions)
  • Upgraded spindle sheaves (same as used on 100 Series 54-in [137-cm] decks)
  • Upgraded power take-off (PTO) drive sheave (improves belt life at lower heights of cut)

The 42-in. (107-cm) mower deck is a two-spindle design with heavy-duty characteristics:

  • Two adjustable mower wheels are standard equipment for a smooth mowing job, even in rolling terrain.
  • The flexible discharge chute minimizes property and mower deck damage.
  • No tools are required to go from mulching (with mulch cover) to side discharge to rear bagging.
  • A mulch cover is an optional attachment.
  • A high-performance mulching blade is available to enhance mulching performance.

The mower deck has a rolled lip to provide greater strength and protection. The rugged 13 gauge, 0.09-in. (2.3-mm) steel-deck mower will provide years of dependable mowing.

The strength of the deck is enhanced by the top-discharge design:

  • A section of material below the discharge opening ties the front and rear of the deck together.
  • When using the rear bagger, material flows upward through the deck to provide highly effective bagging and a reduced chance of plugging.
    • For this reason, no Power Flow™ collection system is available for the 42-in. (107-cm) mower.

The mulching attachment for the 42-in. (107-cm) mower provides excellent performance:

  • Controls clippings from both blades effectively
  • Improves mulching
  • More even distribution of mulched clippings
  • No rusting due to use of plastic molded parts
  • Can be installed and removed without tools
  • Includes special mulching blades
  • Can also be used for side discharging, though the overall cut quality may decline slightly
42-in. (107-cm) mulch cover42-in. (107-cm) mulch cover

The hopper design provides efficient bagging performance, clean operation, and easy-to-empty bags:

  • Two durable bags with a generous, 6.5-bu (229-L) capacity lift out for emptying and are easy to reinstall.
  • An efficient lower chute provides smooth flow of material to reduce chance of plugging.
  • Standard mower blades can be used for bagging, and high-lift blades are available for very difficult bagging conditions.

An exclusive 3-year or 200-hour (whichever comes first), single-source, bumper-to-bumper warranty* is standard for all John Deere S200 Series Tractors.

  • The warranty is hassle free, with one company handling all of the paperwork.
  • Premium features of S200 Series Tractors allow for this longer warranty period, with more coverage than comparable tractors.

*Term limited to years or hours used, whichever comes first, and varies by model. See the LIMITED WARRANTY FOR NEW JOHN DEERE TURF AND UTILITY EQUIPMENT at JohnDeere.com or JohnDeere.ca/TUWarranty for details.

Every owner of a John riding lawn and garden product is a potential customer for a high-quality, affordable utility cart. Utility carts can be used to haul a variety of materials including firewood, lawn debris, sand, dirt, mulch, garden tools, plants, and bushes.

Utility carts are designed, painted, and decaled to be compatible with other John Deere equipment.

NOTE: For proper braking and operation, the loaded weight of the cart should never exceed the weight of the tractor, or other towing unit, plus the operator. The loaded weight of any equipment towed by an EZtrak™ or ZTrak™ mower should not exceed 250 lb (113.4 kg). See the appropriate vehicle pages for the weight of the vehicle and the mower deck.

17P Utility Cart17P Utility Cart
#

Every owner of a John Deere riding lawn and garden product is a potential user of a high-quality, affordable utility cart.


Utility carts can be used to haul a variety of materials:

  • Firewood
  • Lawn debris
  • Sand
  • Dirt
  • Mulch
  • Garden tools
  • Plants and bushes

Utility carts are designed, painted, and decaled to be compatible with other John Deere equipment.

 

Key features of the 17P Utility Cart:

  • 1,000-lb (454-kg), 17-cu ft (0.48-m3) load capacity.
  • Cart has premium molded polypropylene box construction.
  • Polypropylene body will not rust or dent, staying new-looking longer.
  • 0.75- x 2-in. (19- x 51-mm) stake pockets are molded in to make addition of side extensions easy.
  • Two vertical 0.75-in. (19-mm) molded channels on each side allow for easy use of dividers to separate the box into two or three compartments.
  • Ribs in box bottom add strength and prevent a shovel from hitting bolts when emptying the cart.
  • Sloped tailgate design makes emptying the box easier; no tailgate to loosen or remove.
  • Styling is compatible with other John Deere equipment.
  • 16x6.5 pneumatic tires with turf tread give good flotation, shock absorption, and minimal rolling resistance.
  • Wheels are mounted on a solid one-piece axle.
  • Wheels turn on iron/Oilite® bushings with grease fitting for long life.
  • Spring-loaded dump latch is easy to use.

A convenient foot pedal dump release kit, LP48017, which now comes standard on all 10P and 17P carts is available to retrofit existing poly carts. This kit allows the operator to use both hands to lift the cart bed for more natural and efficient unloading.

6.5-bu (229-L) rear bagger6.5-bu (229-L) rear bagger

The hopper design provides efficient bagging performance, clean operation, and easy-to-empty bags:

  • Two durable bags with a generous, 6.5-bu (229-L) capacity lift out for emptying and are easy to reinstall.
  • Efficient lower chute provides smooth flow of material to reduce chance of plugging.
  • Standard mower blades can be used for bagging, and high-lift blades are available for very difficult bagging conditions.
  • An air-exhaust duct directs air from the hopper back and toward the ground for clean operation.
  • A convenient bungee-cord fastener makes opening and closing the hopper easy.
  • It is easy to install and remove the hopper, and no tools are required after the initial installation.
  • Pins and spring clips hold the hopper and chute in place; there is nothing left to interfere with other attachments when removed.
  • Loose-knit bags allow more air to flow through to provide complete bag filling in wet and heavy grass conditions.

46-in. (117-cm) Front Blade used on loose material46-in. (117-cm) Front Blade used on loose material

The front blade is excellent for pushing light snow or other loose material.

The blade is constructed for good performance and long life:

  • Blade surface is curved to roll rather than push material, which requires less power and increased blade capacity.
  • Bolt-on, replaceable cutting edge takes most of the wear to greatly extend the useful life of the blade.

For operator convenience, the blade comes with standard equipment for controlling it from the tractor seat:

  • Blade can be angled left, right, or used in the straight-ahead position.
Full working range
Full working rangeFull working range

The 46-in. (117-cm) blade can be operated up to 6.5 in. (16.5 cm) above ground level.

Floating action is designed into the lift linkage, so the blade is free to follow the contour of the ground.

The lift-linkage design makes raising the blade easy.

For operator convenience, the blade comes with angling and lift components as standard equipment so it can be controlled from the tractor seat.

Front blade lift and angling components are included as standard equipment:

  • Blade can be angled left, right, or used in the straight-ahead position.
  • For 100 Series Tractors, L100 Series Lawn Tractors, G110 Garden Tractors, and S240 Tractor, lift components are provided with the blade so it can be raised and lowered from the tractor seat.

8-oz (237-mL) Fuel-Protect gasoline stabilizer8-oz (237-mL) Fuel-Protect gasoline stabilizer

John Deere Fuel-Protect gasoline stabilizer is a unique formula developed to ensure optimum performance and protection year-round: 

  • Has corrosion preventers
  • For lawn and garden equipment and other gasoline-powered vehicles
  • Ensures quick starts in all two- and four-cycle engines
  • Use in gasoline, gasoline-oil mixture, and ethanol blends
  • Use to treat gas cans at each fill-up or use at every fill-up of vehicle
  • Keeps fuel fresh for 12 months
  • Contains a fuel injector and carburetor cleaner
  • 1 oz (29.6 mL) treats 2 gal. (7.6 L)

Always use fuel stabilizer in gasoline.

Fuel sitting in gas tanks or gas containers for more than 30 days begins to degrade. Also, blended fuels and water in gasoline can form acids that corrode fuel-system components. Protect the investment - use John Deere fuel stabilizer with corrosion preventers and prevent hard starting, surging, lack of power, poor idle, flooding, and will not run or stay running conditions caused by poor-quality fuel. Ask a local John Deere dealer or visit JDParts.

Helpful tips:

  • Add fuel stabilizer every time fuel is purchased.
  • Deere gasoline-powered equipment is recommended to run on a minimum of 87 octane gasoline.
  • John Deere Fuel-Protect for gasoline is safe to use in all types of gasoline, including gasoline/oil mixtures and blended fuels containing up to 10 percent ethanol.
  • Use plastic fuel containers to store fuel; ask a local John Deere dealer.
  • For best results, use a spill-proof gas can that automatically seals the gas can vent.
  • Store fuel in a cool, dry, dark place in a sealed fuel can.
  • Fill tank to the top every time the machine is put away.
    • Make sure tank is drained if stored for the winter or treated if left for prolonged periods of time.

Please refer to the operator’s manual for additional recommendations and warranty information.

Fuel related issues are not considered a warrantable condition as there is no defect in the materials or workmanship of the machine.

Tire Chains

TerraGrip Traction BeltTerraGrip Traction Belt
#

Protect your driving surface. TerraGrip Traction Belts offer enhanced traction on snow, mud, dirt, wet asphalt, and wet concrete surfaces. They will not scratch or chip concrete, asphalt, or aggregate drives or walkways. The proven reliability of the traditional steel chain attachment system is used and combined with the performance and durability of reinforced rubber slats. The rubber slats wrap around the tire so only rubber touches the driving surface. The result is aggressive traction without the risk of surface damage, that can happen with traditional chains.

Features:
  • Rubber slats surround the tire and will not damage driveways or sidewalks.
  • No steel touches the driving surface.
  • No-tools installation utilizes a traditional steel chain attachment system.
  • Traction is improved on all surfaces, especially loose material (snow, dirt, mud, sand, etc.).
  • TerraGrip Traction Belts are approved for John Deere X300, X500 M-T, and X700 Series Tractors.

Additional information for 4-wheel-steer tractor models:

  • X700 Series – requires wheel spacer sold separately
  • X500 Series – requires wheel stop adjustment
  • X300 Series – no additional requirements

Weights

34-lb (15.4-kg) front wheel weight34-lb (15.4-kg) front wheel weight

A durable cast-iron weight can be mounted to each front wheel.

These weights are recommended for use when operating on slopes, especially when the tractor is equipped with a rear grass bagger or other rear-mounted equipment.

Each weight requires BM17978 mounting hardware.

42-lb (19-kg) Quik-Tatch weight42-lb (19-kg) Quik-Tatch weight
42-lb (19-kg) weights and optional mounting bracket42-lb (19-kg) weights and optional mounting bracket

The 42-lb (19-kg) Quik-Tatch can be used to counterbalance a heavy front or rear attachment and/or provide greater stability, especially when operating on hills.

This weight is constructed of cast iron and weighs approximately 42 lb (19 kg).

Some vehicles have built-in front and/or rear weight brackets to hang the weights on; others require a weight bracket that must be ordered separately.

X400/X500 Heavy-Duty Garden Tractors and X700 Series Tractors require the following parts when weights are installed on the front of the tractor:

  • One  M147986 weight retaining rod (Parts)
  • Two  M40461 spring clip (Parts)
Rear weight bracket shown with two 42-lb (19.1-kg) weightsRear weight bracket shown with two 42-lb (19.1-kg) weights

One 30-lb (13.6-kg) cast-iron weight may be installed on each front wheel for additional stability when operating on hillsides or with heavy rear equipment.

Requirements:

  • Mounting may require drilling two holes in the wheel rim.
  • BM17978 mounting hardware kit is required for each weight.

NOTE: Front wheel weights are not available for special-edition tractors because the styled front  wheel design does not have appropriate holes for mounting the wheel weights and no adapter is available.

S240 So far so good!

5/5

I've been using the S240 42" deck for over 2 months. So far, I think it's a great lawn tractor! I have .75 acres to take care of and looked at the 100 series initially. However, I chose the S240 due to the factory upgrades over the 100 series which I felt were worth the extra cost. Plenty of power, reasonable engine decibels, cuts amazing, transmission is smooth with very precise speed control, comfortable, and has great visibility over the front hood while driving. I had assumed that prior to delivery, the dealer would run through a check list to ensure that things like a level deck was taken care of. Nope! Not a knock-on JD, but certainly the dealer. Deck was way out of level! I was able to get the deck nice and level with proper anti-scalp wheel adjustment. It really does a nice job cutting the grass! I also bought the mulching kit and installed it last week. It does impact the quality of the cut slightly but nothing to complain about. I’ll keep it on for the fall but will likely take it back off again next spring. It only takes about 15 minutes to install/remove (including the blades). I agree with the reviewers that JD could come up with a tank design which puts the fill cap in one of the fenders. It would be a good design change for the folks using the bagger attachment. Now, on to my only true complaint. The positive camber on the front wheels is too aggressive when turning. I love the tight turning radius and don't want to give that up but when I do a tight turn the positive camber of the front wheels makes the outside edge of the front tire gouge into the ground, ripping out the grass. I don’t see a way to make an adjustment. Is there a fix for this JD? For now, I'll try not to turn as tight as the tractor allows. I didn't have this problem with my old lawn tractor which, when I made tight turns the camber stayed somewhat neutral. Overall, I think it's a great lawn tractor and expect to have it for many years.

Pros

  • great cut
  • smooth transmission
  • easy to level deck

Cons

  • rio is a pain

Belt snapped

2/5

I bought this because if it’s reputation. As others have mentioned, the machine shuts off at full throttle. I’m mainly disappointed because all I do is cut small area of grass and 13.5 hours into it, the belt snapped. I only feed high level gas (no ethanol).

Great mower

4/5

I have had this mower now for a year now. I have a 20 acre farm and use a mower for about 3-4 acres. It has performed extremely well and recommend it strongly. Maintenance is easy. I bought it with a 48" deck and have had no issues to date.

Pros

  • 48" deck
  • very good turning radius

Cons

  • small fuel tank

Quality cut

4/5

I’m a 3 year owner of the S240 42 inch deck. I have half acre of lawn and a low to medium hill on one side of the house, here is my long term review. This machine is a hybrid of the 100 series and some of the X -Line options. It’s more like 80/20 being more of a 100 series machine. Transmission is K46 not to be used for heavy towing with dump cart or pushing snow, made for mowing on low grade hills and up to 1 acre. If I had to mow more than 20,000 square feet, I would upgrade to a 48 inch deck commercial machine. I prefer to bag the clippings, with sharp high lift blades, the cut is on par with commercial machines. The bagging system is the 100 series bagging system, while it does the job, I have some clippings that blow out of the sides of the plastic cover that goes over bags and fall back to the lawn, just enough to be a nuisance that I can live with. Bagging system design can be improved. Kawasaki motor speaks for itself and it’s the main reason I bought this machine. The two adjustable nuts that are found on the left and right side of the deck for adjustment purposes are invaluable. Never realized how important this was, my previous non JD mower did not have it and it was a nightmare trying to level deck. Parts are overpriced because of JD name. Excellent tuning radius, no need for front bumper, I took front bumper off to gain more clearance when going around trees and shrubs. The reverse override button is a pain but there is a solution for that. All in all this is a very good machine for bagging clippings and side discharge, mulching is very slow. So if you are not looking for a Kawasaki engine like I was, I would suggest to save money and buy a higher end 100 series JD with v twin Briggs and Stratton engine and K46 transmission.

Pros

  • quality cut and bagging with high lift blades
  • deck leveling

Cons

  • price for parts
  • bagging system
  • reverse override button

I can't believe I hesitated.

5/5

FYI I have a .33 acre yard, that being said I can now mow everything with an even cut in 17 minutes. I used to push mow the front and use a Troy-Bilt pony for the back. Now I ride with ease and I can't wait to cut my yard again. I have a feeling I will be cutting every 4-5 days instead of hacking my back yard every 10 days. I will say the wife was not happy until I came back inside after 20 minutes to help out with my 2 yr old. I will never buy anything but a John Deere again. I'm pretty sure this will be the last one I have to buy though.

2018 s240 with 48in. deck

5/5

Just purchased 16 April 2019. So far it's helped tremendously with spring cleanup. Cut hours off of my work load. I opted to get the 10p cart as will as aerator / spreader combo. Haven't gotten to mow yet, because the grass isn't ready. When it came time to buy a lawn tractor there was no other choice for me. I grew up with John Deere. So when it came time for a rider I already knew I was getting quality. I bought mine through a dealer so I could get the options I wanted and needed.

Pros

  • great quality

Cons

  • attachments are expensive

Waited too long

5/5

I have wanted a John Deere mower for quite awhile and finally decided it was time. I never did like the way my old Craftsman LT2000 cut. I could only use it on my back yard and had to push mow my front. So I researched the E series when they came out with the quick change oil filters. I thought this would be the one. I too started at the big box store, thinking that the savings would be greater using my store credit card discount. Then I stopped by my local dealer, he offered me a good deal and explained the difference in buying from them vs the box store. There I noticed the S240. For a few hundred dollars over the E130, I could get so much more.I was sold and he found a leftover 2018 that was reduced and with the financing through John Deere, it was a no brainer. Finally got to use it the other day and man what a difference. I can mow the front without gouges and streaks. Yes as someone else stated, the seat switch is a bit touchy and the mow in reverse will take some time getting used to vs the old Craftsman but the cut and ride of the S240 make it worth while. I see many years of happy mowing on my Deere. Thanks to Caleb at Sloan Implement for being patient with me over the last few months while I contemplated which mower to buy.

  • quiet

This mower has some real problems!

3/5

The bagger on the S240 is so difficult to put on and clippings frequently miss the container. The "see through" slot on top of the bagger they added is a joke as you have to be off the mower to try to look into it. The top of the bagger does not open all the way to allow you to take the full bags off easily. Two things on the mower itself that are inconvenient are the placement of the gas container. Try holding a 5 gallon can of gas over half the S240 to reach the gas cap area. I copied some of what SPIDER wrote because I'm having the same difficulty with this model.

This is why you go to a Deere dealership...

5/5

I had done my research, decided on the E130, it was 100% what I was looking for. Yes I could get another brand for a couple hundred bucks less but I wanted a Deere. I decided I didn't want to buy from Lowe's and last second decided to go to a Deere dealership. I called and asked if they had the E130 and they did. As I pulled up it was already out front and shined up for me (even though it was starting to rain). I talked to the salesperson (Blake) and told him what I needed. He asked if I had checked out the S240 in 42". As I did all my shopping on Lowes.com and the E130 was already at the top of my budget I said I hadn't. He showed me the mower and told me the differences (mainly Kawasaki motor and transmission as well as other upgrades like the seat). It was another $500 over what I was already prepared to spend but I really like Kawasaki as a brand. He talked it up and definitely peaked my interest. I re-iterated how the E130 was already overkill for my yard and he said it was probably the right choice. I decided once I went over $1500 I was going to finance. Deere ain't no fools, they offer 9 months no interest on the E line and 12 months on the S line making the S line cheaper payment which makes the $500 over the cost of the E more palatable. I decided to with it on a bit of a whim, I was going to pick it up the next day. The next day I went in and signed the documents and they already had my mower on a trailer on its way to my house which was great. I got home and fired it up and immediately went into mowing my WAY overgrown wet lawn, which would have taken me HOURS with my push mower trying to mulch it, the Deere had no issues. That seat and the tight super easy steering made it feel like a cadillac of tractors. I am really happy with it 1h and 1 cut into it. After doing the homework I see that it is pretty much the Xline on the Eline chassis. Worth it IMO.

Pros

  • smooth engine
  • not very loud

I am rating the bagger on the S240, poor design

3/5

I had an LT160 and miss my bagger. I could have that on and off in 30 seconds. The bagger on the S240 is so difficult to put on, the dealer had to move the bungee clips so they were usable. There is no longer a trigger on the chute that tells you the bagger is clogged. The "see through" slot on top of the bagger they added is a joke as you have to be off the mower to try to look into it. The top of the bagger does not open all the way to allow you to take the full bags off easily. Two things on the mower itself that are inconvenient are the placement of the gas container. Try holding a 5 gallon can of gas over half the S240 to reach the gas cap area. Another design flaw, the parking brake lever and the cruise control lever hit your legs when you are driving. I have to wear shin guards when mowing.

Does the job

5/5

Just bought a house that has a lot of yard and most of it is a hill. Tried mow with my self propelled Honda the first 3 times cutting. Was going to eventually die mowing for hours in the hot GA summer. Bought the 240 online, dealer delivered with ease. It now takes me less than an hour to mow. This beast goes up a pretty steep hill with ease. Very happy with my purchase.

S240 42"

5/5

I just bought it, mowed with it for 60 trouble free minutes. I replaced my lx325 after 20 years of service. I think I spent $90.00 on parts for that mower besides blades, filters, and regular maintenance. I did order a new mulching kit today. I hope to see you in 20 years John Deere dealer.

Pros

  • comfortable seat
  • big steering wheel
  • nice size not too heavy
  • lots of power

Cons

  • gas cap is under the seat
  • it only holds 2.4 gals of fuel

Not for women under 140 lbs.

2/5

We are so disappointed with the S240. Although I have mowed with our Cub Cadet for years, since we “upgraded” to this tractor, it’s been nothing but frustration. Although our dealer has been as helpful as possible, there is a flaw with the seat that means the tractor will not run properly for me because I am not heavy enough for the seat sensor. The dealer states John Deere makes the specifications for 140 lbs. My husband does not have an issue because he weighs much more. We purchased the tractor because of John Deere’s reputation for reliability and because my husband travels a lot with his job. Sadly, that has not worked out for us. The dealer will allow us to upgrade for a price, but it seems important to let people of lighter stature to know that this mower may not work for them.

Pros

  • steers easily

Cons

  • bad seat design
  • won’t run properly for smaller people
  • brake very stiff
  • lines in yard when mowing
  • loud

5/5

I am pleased the tractor but cannot get the deck to cut properly. The dealer picked it up and leveled the deck but it still does not cut evenly. It also does not do a very good job cutting. after cutting the grass stands up leaving streaks not in the wheel tracks

  • tractor

  • deck

Really Nice Machine!

5/5

It took awhile to find one. Two local dealers couldn't get it as JD is now tooling up for the 2018 model. But, the local AgPro had two in stock at another store. I had a smaller 38" Deere and Cub years ago and have been pushing the last 5. It's good to be back in the saddle again. This is just a nice machine. I also got the bagger and installed it myself. Maybe an hour. Took my time. Didn't want to scratch anything up. It's a little taller sit than the old Cub, so there are some areas I don't feel as comfortable, even with the OS! grabs on the rear fenders. Getting used to the 42" deck. The RIO also something new that takes "remembering", but a good feature. Tire pressure of 10 rear and 14 front is max. and a pretty stiff ride. I am lowering to around 8 & 12 psi. X tranny, X seat, Kaw 18.5 engine is quiet and strong, larger tires, $200 cash back thru end of Oct. Fueling is a bit blind as the fuel gauge is in front of the seat. No real mention of this part in Manual. I only use non-eth fuel for my vehicles, especially my small engines. My neighbors have to be a bit jealous. I try not to rub it in.

Best gift a wife could buy her husband!

5/5

Total time since new- 8 hours Average time per cut- 45minutes After mowing our lawn for 30 years with 2 Honda HR line self propelled mowers (the first lasting 20 years, still have my 2nd), my wife felt bad that I was taking nearly 3 hours to mow the lawn and told me to just go get a riding mower. So the search began and I was able to quickly narrow my choices down to the S-240 and the Kubota 1880. The 100 series from Deere would have probably worked fine, but I wanted to get the best value for my investment. I purchased the unit with the JD bagging attachment. I'm impressed with the silky smooth operation of the Kawasaki engine. Be prepared to fill the gas tank more often if you run it at full power as it does like the gas! However, it has more than sufficient torque to handle my 1/3 acre with a few small hills if I back the throttle down to the low range of the suggest RPM and I can get 3 cuts (2.25 hours) on one tank with a bit to spare. As for the quality of cut, I am still learning the best "route" to take to minimize scalping. I've lowered the anti-scalping wheels to the bottom register which has helped significantly when cutting on hill sides. I also noticed that the blades did not have a good edge on them so I sharpened them to improve the lower RPM cut quality. I believe Deere can further improve the cut quality and leave the brand X products in the dust by increasing the cutting edge by another inch or so and adding additional off-set blades, similar to the Honda products. The bagging attachment is worth every penny if you are looking for a clean finish. No vacuum needed.

Pros

  • outstanding value no regrets

Awesome machine

5/5

I had a JD 214 for over 30-years so I knew my next lawn tractor would be a John Deere. The S240 has the drive train from the 300 series but not at the 300 series price. I am so thrilled JD desired to offer this model. It is just perfect for me and my property. If anyone is looking to get a 100-series lawn tractor I would strongly encourage you to look at the S240 first. You will not be sorry.

Pros

  • engine
  • transmission
  • seat
  • steering wheel
  • sound level
  • turning radius
  • hood
  • color (green)
  • basically everything

  • none

This machine is a beast!

5/5

I upgraded from the 100 series and what an amazing difference. I have an extremely hilly yard and the old 100 series struggled to bag in such terrain. However it's a completely different story on the S240. It powered up and down the hills with ease and even bags wet grass! It's a beast of a mower and am so Glad the dealer recommended it! Nice work John Deere on a brilliant machine.

Pros

  • bagging ability
  • power
  • small turn radius

Cons

  • still waiting to find one!

Great Mid Sized John Deere

5/5

This cost a little more than the 100 series but i think it is well worth it. You get the Kawasaki engine with this model which i believe is worth the extra money. The last rider i had was a 1987 John Deere RX95 with 12 hp kawasaki and it still uses No oil and runs great. The S240 is only sold at JD dealers. Very Nice Machine

Skip the Big Box mowers.

5/5

Purchased the S240 last Fall to mow just over half an acre. I did a great deal of research and landed on the Deere. This machine is quiet, smooth, efficient, and well built. The cut is great and the yard has never looked better. For a little extra you get so much more compared with the Big Box JD's. This is the best money I have ever spent. The S240 makes mowing fun. Just wish I had a bigger yard to mow. Never thought I'd say that.

Engine Stalls When Blades Are Engaged

2/5

I really like this mower but the constant engine stalling at full speed when the blades are engaged is really turning me against this John Deere mower. I change all filters, spark plugs and the oil well before the changes are due. The fittings are greased on a regular basis. I don't use dirty or old gasoline. I bought this model specifically to get the Kawasaki engine but it seems that Kawasaki engines are nothing to write home about. I hate to say it but I should have bought a Cub Cadet.

Pros

  • nice looking lawn tractor.

Cons

  • rides rough.
  • engine stalls or sputters when the blades engaged.
  • steering mechanism makes loud squeaky noises.
  • doesn't do a good job of cutting.

A nice upgrade

5/5

This is my second Deere, and i love it. My first was a D130 which ran great, but I sold it when I moved cross country. I wanted something a little more durable than the D130, but I was not inclined to spend 5K for a bigger machine that I did not need. I mow 0.5 acre of flat land. The X300 looked great, but when i read the spec sheet I noticed it had the same engine and tranny as the S240 and was $600 more. In order to get an upgraded tranny I had to go with the X330 (now renamed to the X380) which was close to 5K. The upgrades that i noticed over the D130 are the smoother running Kawasaki engine (runs quieter and should last longer than the Briggs and Straton in the D series), the electric PTO (not really sure it is better but others say it is an upgrade), stronger mower spindles with bolts and nuts onto the deck, an upgrade seat (same as the X300 has), rear fenders (same as on the D170), upgraded hood with top vents and an additional year of warranty. All this for the cost of $500 over the D130. I got mine on sale and it was $200 off, so it was a no brainer. I like mulching because it is easy. I find the machine leaves a really nice cut, and if I cut often (once a week) I do not notice any clippings left on the grass.I first tried the mulch plug but later installed the mulch kit (baffled insert and blades) because the mulch plug seemed kinda cheap, but having used both they both perform about the same. I do think the full mulch kit will last longer but for the price I think the mulch plug is fine. This machine is not meant to mow greater than 1 acre and/or hilly areas. Will it do it? Yes. Will it last (more than a couple years)? No. You will destroy the transmission and the cost is near a new machine to replace. Save yourself the heartache and get a X380 or X500. My dad bought a D130 to mow his 4 acre, hilly property and it lasted about 2 years before falling apart.
