Thank you Gail, we appreciate your support of our channel!

Thanks for watching the video William!

Thanks for the feedback Tate, we appreciate you watching.

Congrats on your new Deere! Thanks for watching, Joe!

Thanks for watching! The X390 is air cooled.

Hi Clavicle, glad we could help out! Congrats on your new John Deere! :)

Hi Lee, thanks for watching! You're right, the design of the cab itself isn't that much different, but there are some new features that weren't available in 2006, like LED lighting and bluetooth.

Thanks for watching, Gardener!

In my opinion, I don't think they should because I had a line IQ back then, but the system was not working properly after four weeks.

@@Gt3Nismo13J that sucks, it’s their top of the line, you were able to bump feed though?

Thank you Gail! We appreciate you watching. :)

Hi Peter, thanks for watching the video! Yes, we work on the Z370R in any of our service shops. We have 43 locations throughout the West. Here is a link to the owner's manual: www.deere.com/en/parts-and-service/zero-turn-mowers/residential-eztrak/z370r/ Let us know if you have any further questions! Thanks again.

Hi Fleetguy, thanks for watching! Great question. The FL1053 has a machine requirement of 1550 lbs, which means the X578 is a little light for this unit.

@@papemachinery.agturf Thanks for the reply. I thought that weight might be problem. Mine does have suitcase weights on the front, and rear tires are filled. So, I am probably close, but I figured best to go with the FL1061 and put behind either of my 3Rs or possibly my 4075R in pinch. Likely ideal fit for my 3039R OOS or cab 3046R. Ordered a Fl1061 last Friday. I did cross shop it with the Deere 370 and 25A flails but seems since Deere did this frontier deal with Machio, they discontinued all the Deere flails.

@jdfleetguy28 - the 25A is still available to order from John Deere, and so is the heavy duty flail. We have availability on any of these flails to include the 370 - while our inventory lasts. :)

@@papemachinery.agturf Interesting, my dealer said he tried to spec one to order and the system would not take an order for the Deere models, he said he dug into deeper and found out those models were discontinued, which we both figured it was due to this new Frontier deal Deere made with Macchio last year. I was attempting to get a comparison of the FL1061 to that Deere 370 Price wise there was a huge difference, still don't really know what made the 370 so much more money than the FL1061, but since it was not something I could order I just went with ordering the FL1061. I don't mind paying for quality, I however due like to know what make it so much better to demand such a big difference, it was near double I think was something like $4K for the FL1061 vs $7K for the 370 in ballpark numbers.

Hi Mark, thanks for watching the video! Please reach out to your local John Deere dealer and they can assist. Find our locations here: agriculture.papemachinery.com/locations

Hi Mos! Jason says: "I think you have some legitimate concerns. Your extreme conditions may need you to look at some creative solutions. Maybe an external warming device like a heating pad or warming bulb on the days it dips below -4F."

@@papemachinery.agturf You deleted our reply, not right to do that. We cancelled this, JD has problems, not the same company it once was.

Hi Mos, We didn't see a comment, and didn't delete. We were actually looking forward to finding out the course of action you'd take. Which model are you going with, for your extreme temps?

@@papemachinery.agturf Thank you. I'm very fond of my JD equipment, it has worked wonderfully well over many years and I truly hope this problem is resolved. This is my field and I know these batteries very well, a lot of people are very afraid of them because they don't understand the technology and chemistry. They are great batteries, every laptop, cell phone and garden implement has them BUT they must be used within specific parameters to function properly and last. You simply can not store these batteries or LiFePo4 batteries below freezing. I have asked JD for an answer on this but have not received one, the only solution I can see is to remove the battery pack for the winter and that is what I suggest those in cold climates do. I hope JD resolves this, I really like the total design of this zero turn, JD's revamp of the 3 series in 2023 really made this a worthy product. Hopefully next spring I'll be able to reinitiated my purchase or even a 5 series electric if they decide to make one..

Hello Mr. Bube, we're not sure if it's important, but if you aren't a fan, you're in luck. We've changed our format this year so our new episodes have no background track while Jason speaks. Plus, we've added captions for you to read if you'd rather mute the video. Thanks for the comment!

Hey Mr. GTM, maybe Jason was so excited he forgot that info! The John Deere 4052R has an engine hp of 50.8 and a PTO hp of 40.8 (with the PowrReverser transmission). Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching Connie!

Hi Jeff, thanks for watching! We're glad we could help you out and give you some insight. :)

Hey Boarderman, thanks for watching! It was a pretty easy swap for Jason to use this flail. Sounds like you'd really be better off with that FL1272S for what you need to do. Glad we could help you out!

Thanks for watching! :)

Hi Dean, thanks for watching! Newer loader models have detachable buckets. Check out the 120E or the 120R loaders: www.deere.com/en/loaders/front-end-loaders-for-tractors/

Hey Zulk, thanks for watching! You can bump up to the X380 for a K58, or bump yourself up further to the X500 Series for more transaxle choices. The X570 offers a K72.

Hi LRM, thanks for watching! We don't, but thank you very much for the suggestion! We'll add it to the request list. :)

Ok thanks anyway.

Hi JB, glad to help you out! Thanks for watching the video!

Hi Cliff, Thanks for watching our video!

Hi Mos, it's great to have you as a part of our Toolkit community! Sounds like you get some stuff DONE around your place. :)

Hi Rene, we'll add it to the request list! Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching the video David. Wow!!! 80 hours a week on your mower? George Jones is a hero of ours too, but we wouldn't recommend actually using your X380 as a means of transportation.

Thanks so much Jay! Always glad to be of service!

Thanks for watching CJ! Sounds like you've got the hard part taken care of already. The AV20F grapples are hydraulic. We'll have to get a video up on those soon.

Thanks for watching! We know not of what you speak... 🙈🙉🙊

Thanks for watching! You can get Frontier/John Deere forks. Without knowing what size you need, here's a link to the AP11 size for you to check out: www.deere.com/en/attachments-accessories-and-implements/utility-tractors-attachments-accessories/loader-attachments/ap11-pallet-forks/

Hey Mos, nope we haven't done a comparison video yet! Jason says: "Personally I find the steering to be a little more familiar on the John Deere unit. It's a little less twitchy, but both are easy to get used to if you use them for any amount of time. No wrong choice on this one."

Hi Jimmy, thanks for watching! Yes, you can have an alignment done on your lawn tractor, and it may need it! Without taking a look at it, we can't be sure if there are parts that need replacement. You can find some simple alignment procedures with a quick Google search. Let us know how it goes!

Thanks for watching, Richard!

Thanks for watching, mos! Keep us posted on how the mower is working out for you. :)

@@papemachinery.agturf Thanks and I will. One more thing I found out in my research, the 48"deck option also has 20" rear tires over the 18" on the 42" deck.

Good feedback for the Toolkit Community, Mike. Thanks!

Hey Justin, thanks for watching! You're right! 4.4 gallon fuel tank. We may have to begin auditions for our new Toolkit Expert! 😆

Hi Maverick, you must have been talking with our Toolkit Expert Jason! He's not a fan of the music either, so we've changed up our format. Our latest videos are produced with no background music. Let us know what you think of the captions. Thanks!

Hi Chris, thanks for watching the video! The John Deere S120 uses John Deere's Easy Change Oil System - meaning, your oil and filter are all in one. If this is a feature that doesn't appeal to you, consider the S220. We do sell a 'home maintenance kit' for this model, but that just means that all the parts and components you'll need are in one box. Hope this helps!

Hi Adam, we appreciate you watching the video! Yes, this model has the auto release feature by just tapping the head on the ground a bit to release more line.

Hi People, thanks for watching the video! Sorry to hear that alarm is scaring your pup. Keep us posted on how you are liking your Gator!
