What the specs work out to

Figures MowerFacts computes from John Deere’s own numbers — not published by the manufacturer.

Weight & hauling

  • Machine weight827 lb
  • + 6×12 trailer900 lb
  • Towed weight1,727 lb
  • single-axle 3,500 lbCarries it, 1,773 lb spare
  • tandem-axle 7,000 lbCarries it, 5,273 lb spare

Needs a single-axle 3,500 lb trailer and a vehicle rated to tow at least 1,727 lb.

Power & run time

  • Run time per tank~4.5 h

Towed weight adds a 900 lb allowance for a 6x12 open utility trailer to John Deere's published machine weight. Your trailer's own weight is on its VIN plate. Tongue weight, axle placement and your vehicle's tow rating are still yours to check — this is the load, not a loading plan.

Run time assumes a typical 1 gal/hour burn at working load; real consumption varies with engine, load and cut.
