Overview
Tackle up to 2 acres with premium power from the John Deere S240 200 Series lawn tractor, featuring a smooth-running 21.5HP (16kW)/726cc Kawasaki FR651V V-Twin overhead-valve engine with cast-iron liners, full-pressure lubrication, and no-tools oil drain for consistent torque through thick grass, hills, or mulching without strain. The 42-inch Accel Deep stamped deck (4.97-inch depth) delivers superior airflow for even cuts, fewer clumps, and finer clippings via two high-lift blades, with optional MulchControl kit for one-touch mulching/discharge switching and electric PTO for seamless engagement. Heavy-duty K46 hydrostatic transmission with side-by-side pedals, standard cruise control, and 18-inch turning radius provides effortless 5.5 MPH forward/3.2 MPH reverse speeds for professional results on expansive properties.
