Durability and mowing performance from 7Iron PRO Mower Decks forged from a single piece of steel

BUILT TO LAST
The mower deck shell is forged from a single sheet of 7-gauge, 0.179-in. (4.6-mm) steel. There are fewer welds to wear or break than shells built from multiple fabrications.

Rectangular leading-edge reinforcement and rounded corners help distribute impact stress to reduce potential for damage when the mower contacts trees, rocks, curbs, and other fixed obstacles.

The trim edge of the deck is equipped with a bumper that provides extra abrasion resistance to protect the machine and the property.

Three 1-in. (2.5-cm) cold-forged spindle shafts are heat-treated for strength and supported by ball bearings. Deep spindle pockets keep the blades aligned, even after years of tough operation. The ribbed spindle housings are made of aluminum and have an 8-in. (20-cm) base for added strength and heat dissipation.

EXCEPTIONAL MOWING RESULTS
Minimal welds provide a smoother underside with fewer sharp corners for reduced material buildup.

Higher blade-tip speed than many competitors - approximately 18,000 fpm (5,486 m/min) for more blade cuts per inch mowed.

A deep-deck design of 5.5 in. (14 cm) delivers excellent airflow so material can be processed quickly and efficiently.

The front edge is raised above the blade plane to allow even cutting of tall grass.

The wider and higher discharge opening provides even clipping dispersal for an excellent finished appearance in all conditions.

Blade overlap is 1.6 in. (40.6 mm) to reduce striping between blades.

Dual-captured front-corner, front-center, and rear-center anti-scalp wheels provide deck flotation over even the toughest terrain.

SIMPLE TO MAINTAIN AND CLEAN
A folding engine guard provides access to the mower deck drives for cleaning and maintenance.

Spindle covers allow for cleaning while installed and can be removed without tools for maintenance. Spindle grease fittings are accessible through the top of the spindle cover.

Adjustment screws at each lift point are used to level the mower deck side-to-side and set the rake angle. The mower deck is fully supported throughout the leveling process, enabling predictable adjustments and precise height measurements.

SPACIOUS OPERATOR PLATFORM GIVES OPERATORS ROOM TO MOVE
M and R Series QuikTrak Mowers have a spacious operator platform designed to keep operators comfortable and improve stability, while providing storage.

ROOM TO MOVE
Moving is essential for operator ergonomics, so the M and R Series QuikTrak Mowers are equipped with a 24-in. (61-cm) wide foot platform that gives the operator room to vary their stance. The fender-mounted foot holds on R Series Mowers enable an even wider range of stance options.

SMOOTHS OUT THE BUMPS
The platform is spring loaded to keep bumps from jarring the operator. Large tires help isolate the operator from rough ground as well. R Series Mowers include a rubber mat on the foot platform.

KEEPS THE OPERATOR AT CENTER OF CONTROL
The forward pitch of the new M and R Series leaning pad centers the operators core over the vehicles center of rotation. This location has the least centrifugal force, keeping the operator stable and in control. The leaning pad is padded for comfort and bolstered to provide side support to the operator while traversing uneven terrain and during end-of-pass turns. The leaning pad on R Series includes extra bolstering and a color accent.

TRACTION WHEN YOU NEED IT
The wide foot platform gives the operator the freedom to shift their weight from side-to-side on uneven terrain. Similarly, the forward-pitched leaning pad allows the operator to lean forward to increase stability or lean rearward to increase traction.

A PLACE FOR TOOLS AND TRASH
A versatile mesh storage bin is within the operators reach and can be used for holding refreshments, tools, or trash.

GET OPERATORS UP TO SPEED WITH USER-FRIENDLY CONTROLS
The color coded and logically placed controls on M and R Series QuikTrak Mowers are designed to get new operators up to speed quickly. A display panel assists in operating the mower and alerts operators of problems, to reduce downtime and repair costs. The key, choke (carbureted models only), throttle, and power take-off (PTO) switch are located at the operators fingertips.

PRECISE DRIVE CONTROLS
Ground speed and direction are easily controlled by moving the two hand-lever hydrostatic drive controls forward or reverse.
Up to 10 mph (16.1 km/h) forward and 5 mph (8.0 km/h) reverse on M Series Mowers.
Up to 12 mph (19.3 km/h) forward and 6 mph (9.7 km/h) reverse on R Series Mowers.

Front and rear stationary reference bars stabilize the operators hands, which maintains precise control as the mower changes speed or direction. The bars also reduce fatigue from control lever operation.

Control levers return to neutral automatically, and a positive neutral-lock holds the control levers in neutral when the park brake is engaged.

DISPLAY PANEL
The M and R Series QuikTrak Mowers are equipped with a display panel that assists in operating the mower, alerts of problems to reduce downtime and repair costs, and provides on-board diagnostics to speed troubleshooting. The display panel includes:
Hour meter
Fuel level
Engine speed
System voltage
Low engine oil-pressure indicator
Starting interlock indicators for PTO, operator presence, and park brake
Bright caution and stop indicators to capture the operator's attention

The diagnostics mode provides error codes, system voltage, and circuit continuity tests that can report switch functionality and circuit continuity in seconds without tools.

PARK BRAKE
A park brake is provided for parking the vehicle and for transport. It must be engaged to start the machine and should be engaged whenever the machine is not being used. On M and R Series QuikTrak Mowers, the park brake is built into the transaxles, which reduces the effort required to engage the brake.

HEIGHT-OF-CUT ADJUSTMENT
An easy-to-use height-of-cut system allows the operator to see and adjust the height-of-cut setting from the operator station.

COMPACT DESIGN FOR EASY HAULING AND EXCELLENT MANEUVERABILITY
From the operator's platform to the mower deck, John Deere QuikTrak Mowers have a compact and functional design:
The compact design allows the QuikTrak to operate in tighter areas that a larger machine cannot. Often, this means the area can be mowed with a QuikTrak so it is not necessary to switch to a walk-behind mower, reducing the time on site.
With the compact design of QuikTrak Mowers, less space is required on a truck or trailer - which can mean there is room for an extra mower, resulting in less time on property, saving time and money.

Whether mowing hills or on level terrain, trimming or mowing straight-away, the operator of a John Deere QuikTrak is able to affect the performance of the machine with their body:
The compact design of the QuikTrak allows the operator to use their body to help control the machine
o 24-in. (61-cm) wide foot platform gives the operator the freedom to shift their weight from side-to-side as needed on uneven terrain.
o Fender-mounted foot holds on R Series Mowers enable an even wider range of stance options.
o A forward pitched leaning pad and a deep foot platform allow the operator to lean forward to increase stability or lean rearward to increase traction.
Faster ground speeds get work done quicker.
Better traction on slopes gives more control and increased productivity. Superior stability gives more control and confidence when mowing hillsides.
Better visibility allows more-timely operator reaction to the terrain and obstructions.
Minimal operator-station obstruction allows safe and fast exits for clearing mower-path obstacles.
Compact design takes less space for mowing tighter areas and may allow room for an extra machine when hauling to the worksite.

FRAME IS COMPACT AND DURABLE FOR PRODUCTIVITY AND LONG LIFE
BUILT UPON A STRONG FOUNDATION
The M and R Series QuikTrak Mowers are built upon a fully-welded frame constructed from 1.5-in. x 3-in. (3.8-cm x 7.6-cm) 7-gauge, 0.18-in. (4.6-mm) tubular steel for added strength and durability.

DESIGNED TO CROSS THE CURB
QuikTrak mowers are frequently used on properties with concrete street curbs. The ability to traverse curbs boosts productivity by reducing transit time. The M and R Series QuikTrak Mowers include the following features that allow for efficient and damage-free curb crossings:
Angled foot platform geometry that clears a 6-in. (15-cm) curb
Tall rear tires that can climb a curb with confidence
Mower deck lift system with elevated transport position
