I bought a starter S170 for a mere &4,000. Pretty pricey for entry level. Ditch that 30 second oil filter change setup. You still leave about 1.75 quarts of dirty oil in the engine.
Funny seeing this done at Home Depot instead of the dealer. I take it Western Equipment does all the assembly for the local Lowes and Home Depot units?
Yeah, our stores in areas that have the big box stores do the setup of these mowers. Sometimes Home Depot has a mower in stock that we don't so I just go there to make sure we get it covered!
First off, big kudos to Calab at WE Amarillo Texas for getting me my bracket for my 15 gallon sprayer for my JD D130! I love to go to Lowe's or Home Depot to look at the lawn tractors, but be careful Brent, those TORO fella's might jump you'all! LOL!
Awesome! I will let Caleb know he got a shoutout! What do you mean with Toro? Like you think they may make a better mower than us or be mad that their mowers were in our video?
@@WesternEquipment Not really, grass wasn't tall or thick. Might have something to do with the explosive response of the blades when the PTO is engaged. Prefered the lever so you could apply tension smoothly.
what a series of junk they put out now , our s170 is 18 mo. old & already has been through 3 deck belts ( we cut some out of the supports ) e brake fell apart ,gauge reads in Russian , u can't put gas in it with out spilling , and its to small for the 24 hp - 😮 ECT.

just started at a lawn mower retailer. no lie, this is the best and only training i had about JD, so thank you
Man that is a very good video. Thoroughly covered all points on this mower and had mine delivered today. Thank you!
Thank you , you did a great job I just ordered one and now KNOW everything I need to know, I think
Is cost the reason this top of the line mower has belt instead of shaft drive to the transaxle???
I don't own a deere but i want to own a gator but there so expensive but all utvs/side by sides are love the videos keep it up
EVERYTHING is expensive. It drives me crazy, but times are tough. Hopefully they'll get better soon.
Nice looking machine
I completely agree!

@@WesternEquipment LOL, no those TORO fella's might jump you cause they are jealous of John Deere quality! LOL! Could be the mean streets of Lowe's!
Cool 😎
Thank you! 👍
I just purchased a used LA145 with a 48" deck. Can I get a mulch kit for it?
It looks like there is only a mulch cover for it. The piece that would close your discharge chute. It is part number GY20417.
I have an S160, ran for three hours before it broke the deck belt.
Really? Did you find out what caused it?

Thats a good mower. Have you been happy with it?

B&S engines in a JD?! Ugh, no thanks! Bring back Kohler.
Nothing wrong with a Briggs and Stratton engine.
