The deck of this John Deere mower has not seen much use. I immediately removed the mower deck from the 1025R Utility Tractor the day I bought it because I only wanted the Tractor.
It is filthy from sitting in the barn on wood blocks and is in superb, like new condition. There is nothing wrong with it; I just don’t need it because I have a different lawnmower for that purpose.
Simply raise your tractor on top of it, connect, and move forward.
