How to operate a John Deere X300 tractor, lawn mower.

Spent two days trying to figure out how to start my newly acquired second hand x340. Watched this video and boom, she is up and running. Respect. Thanks. You got a new subscriber.

Thanks Brad, for the tutorial!! Just bought a "non running" x300 with 225 hours for a hundred bucks. Found the fuel pump had failed, filling crankcase with gas. Drained the case, changed oil filter, put on a new fuel pump (also added a fuel shutoff before pump). Tractor looks new, and runs great.

The fact that you don't have your left hand and can do this and I needed to come here and see how to do it is amazing. Thanks so much and you have my full Respect

Thank you for this wonderful video. I am an older lady and my boyfriend is in the hospital. With your video I was able to mow my yard with the X300. I am very grateful to you. Take care my friend.

I inherited my fathers x320, its basically the same as the x300. I needed to learn how to operate it and your video was the best. I feel confident to get on the lawn mower. Thank you so much!

I agree with Theresa below. I bought a used 320 and had to drive it off a truck ramp and was not well acquainted with with all the knobs and buttons (and printing was sun faded beyond reading). I was able to drive it off safely and get started mowing thanks to this. Thank you!

Thx bro super helpful, I felt confident after watching your video and today I took out the mower without any training while at work, and i didn't crash or jack up any lawns thx again bro.

Not a john deere fan or owner. Been using a friends x300. Impressed so far with this tractor.

I just had the husband let me video him with this exact lawn mower and the newest zero turn John Deere. Your video vs the 6 short ones to share with my daughter through message, yours covers more. Headlights. How to push it. I have used older models when they were new but for some reason I just act like I never used any at all. He is looking forward to my proving the videos I made of him and yours that he sent me the link will actually have me able to ride the lawn mower out of the warehouse. I suspect I can. And maybe I can wait on testing pushing the lawn mower and turning on the headlights until then. It’s one of those things I feel I need to know just in case. Now if only he actually could learn to handle the computer stuff and device but I think he has reached his limit, and guess he will have to bother our daughter to bail him out. I have tried to make such lessons stick with him. Maybe finally his videos and yours I will actually let it sink in using the lawn mower.

My 3rd year Looking at this video. Thank very Useful.

Excellent video on basic operation. Easy to understand and just enough to start cutting. The free wheeling lever is a nice addition. Had some friends try to push it while still engaged. Pulling lever worked like a charm.

After having bad luck with my 1st ever riding mower that constantly gave me problems (Craftsman t110) I decided to try a different route.Found one of these that I'm planning to buy for 900.Hopefully tomarrow.This video was very helpful.Thank you so much I will be a subscriber

Thank you Brad!! . I just purchased a "like new" John Deere X300. I grew up operating many different garden tractors but never owned a John Deere. Well explained operating instructions.

GREAT JUST BEEN OUT TRYING TO MOW AND START MY X304 And THIS VIDEO HAS HELPED ME WORK THE BLADE GOING A TREAT!!!

[kevinbarker]

Thanks man, this was a great video. Perfect length and easy to follow. Definitely felt more confident after watching it 👍🏻

[robb]

Best how to Video that I have ever watched, Thank you.

[DM]

Thank you. Very helpful video. Two questions 1) do you have a video of how take the blade off and replace it it the shovel? 2) (and you don't have to answer) how did you lose your hand?

[garyrussell]

Very kool. Great, concise and informative especially since I just bought a used 2013 X300 with no manual and an owner who really just bought it and never used it! Thanks very much for the valuable info. Unfortunately my mower belt broke after only 45 min of use on my lawn and i was worried that it wasnt automatically cutting in reverse, too! Additionally he told the brake and deck lever pedals opposite of what they really are! Sheesh. Thanks for alleviating some worries. Now off to the dealer to get a new mower deck belt installed. I was amazed at how smooth this thing rode, how quickly and easily it turned and how it conquered uphill turns that my L120 couldnt handle.

Hey Brad, Great video! One question, do you have to lower the deck to engage the PTO or does it matter? Thanks!
