- X730 Signature Series Lawn Tractor holds 5.2 gal (19.7 L) of fuel; S110 Lawn Tractor holds 2.4 gal (9.1 L) of fuel, a 2.8 gal difference. Tank size bounds how long a machine runs between stops. Consumption varies with engine, load and speed, so hours per tank are not fixed.
- X730 Signature Series Lawn Tractor has a K90 hydrostatic integrated with transaxle transmission; S110 Lawn Tractor has a TLT200 hydrostatic, two-wheel drive transmission. The transmission grade tracks duty rating and speed. Grade names are each maker's own and are not comparable across brands.
