We used our most advanced  
tools to design these mowers.  
Our ears.  
Listening has provided us more engineering insights than any  
computer simulation or prototype. In fact improvements like  
shifting front cutting units to change your width of cut,  
straight-tracking steering, and quick adjusting reels were rst  
suggested by golf maintenance professionals. Then, ne-tuned  
by superintendents and technicians on their home courses all  
over the world. The result of giving experts like you a voice in  
our designs speaks for itself: Exceptional efciency, comfort  
and strength built into every machine.

PrecisionCut  
ALL-WHEEL DRIVE.  
ALL THE TIME.  
By automatically shifting hydraulic  
ow to wheels that need it most,  
the GRIP AWD system never gives  
you a moment of doubt.  
POWER FOR THE HILLS.  
Highest horsepower in its class  
under the hood. 37.1 hp* on the  
7400, and 26.4 hp* on the 7200.  
Gives you the power to tackle even  
the toughest cutting conditions.

At last, the flexibility to  
handle any stretch  
of your course.  
Mowing tree lines, bunker edges and surrounds is  
easier than ever. Just by ipping a switch you can  
adjust your width of cut and independently shift  
cutting units right or left to nish these time-  
consuming areas, pronto. (There’s no need to get  
off the mower or make lift arm changes.)  
7400  
TerrainCut  
This kind of super-exible thinking doesn’t stop  
there. These mowers’ cutting units feature an  
extended travel to follow the contours of your  
course better—to reduce scalping the top of  
tough mounds and undulations.  
Try one on your course. And shift your expecta-  
tions of what a trim mower can do.  
REACH TRIMMING SYSTEM.  
WIDTH ON DEMAND.  
Push button trimming. Just extend the  
right or left cutting unit to the side and  
you can trim out bunkers closer than  
ever before while keeping the traction  
unit away from the bunker wall.  
On side hills and in areas that require  
more turning, instantly reduce the cutting  
width for increased cutting unit overlap  
to reduce the possibility of uncut grass  
between the cutting units.

2653B  
PrecisionCut  
A reel mower to rely on.  
With new QA7 Quick Adjust reels especially designed for lush, dense turf, a smooth hydraulic drive  
system for surprisingly even traction, excellent contour-following, and high power-to-weight ratio,  
the all-around 2653B can guarantee a pristine cut anywhere on your course.  
QUIET CONFIDENCE.  
FULL-TIME ALL-WHEEL DRIVE.  
Proven system provides exceptional  
climbing power. The GRIP AWD system  
provides hydraulic ow from the wheels  
that slip to the wheels with grip.  
A 19.6-horsepower* engine with sound-reducing  
rubber isolators and responsive traction provide  
sure operation on the course.

Cut like a diamond in  
the rough. And almost  
as strong.  
Strength  
8800  
The mower decks on the 8800 are stamped from  
10-gauge steel, enclosed for protection within a  
frame that carries the load when mowing, and  
guarded by a front-mounted skid plate.  
TerrainCut  
Fast height-of-cut adjustment  
All of this strength and protection enables  
easiest-in-class height-of-cut adjustment that  
requires no tools at all to quickly change  
cutting height.  
Make the morning rough hour go quicker.  
The 8800 is fast, and awless. Five deep 21-inch, double-pivoting rear-discharge  
rotary decks follow ground contour and vacuum up grass for a clean cut. High-  
displacement front and rear wheel motors, and GRIP All-Wheel Drive give it  
the power to take on the ups and downs of your course. And a double-acting  
steering cylinder makes holding a line effortless.  
Exceptional cut quality  
Thanks to lost motion cylinders, mower decks  
can react quicker to changes in the terrain and  
hug the ground.  
GRIP AWD.  
POWER TO SPARE.  
Responsive GRIP All-Wheel Drive helps maintain  
consistent ow to all wheels for changing course  
terrain. By directing ow from a front wheel mo-  
tor to the opposite rear wheel it provides excellent  
traction in the ups and downs of rough mowing.  
A 43.1-horsepower* turbo-charged diesel  
engine with an intercooler easily generates  
enough power to cut the densest turf.

Using our new reels is  
the easiest adjustment  
you’ll ever make.  
The new Quick Adjust reels on the 7200  
PrecisionCut and 2653B PrecisionCut adjust  
quickly, and keep settings longer. Thanks to a  
revolutionary Speed Link system that makes it  
possible to adjust height-of-cut to both sides of  
the cutting unit in no time. A linking bar connects  
both sides of the rear roller to a high-reduction  
ratio worm gear, allowing one-thousandth–  
of-an-inch adjustments to be made to both  
sides of the roller simultaneously just by using  
a power drill. (And besides the dramatic time  
savings this represents, the worm gear makes  
it almost impossible for the setting to change out  
on the course.) The reel-to-bedknife adjustment  
on the QA7 is completed quickly by using a  
notch-based system. The reel adjustment requires  
only to turn the adjuster tower to adjust your  
cut with one notch moving the reel one half  
thousandth of an inch. In almost every way  
possible, these reels set a new standard. One  
you’ll nd very easy to get used to.

Reel options:  
REAR ROLLER POWER BRUSH (26-INCH QA7 ONLY)  
Prevents accumulation of grass clippings and other  
debris on the rear roller, maintaining a consistently  
effective height of cut.  
FAIRWAY TENDER™ CONDITIONER (26-INCH QA7 ONLY)  
Slices stolons, controls grain, and delivers a truer  
playing surface and consistently effective height of  
cut. Choice of 54 mm or 60 mm diameter blades.  
Gear-driven for durability and consistent cutting.

Comfortable to run. Simple to maintain.  
A comfortable operator  
equals better results.  
Features like adjustable suspension seats,  
extra legroom, and well-located controls are  
necessities when it comes to doing a good  
job. They allow an operator to focus on the  
task at hand, and perform at a higher level.  
Take the steering system on the 7200, 7400  
and 8800. With minimal effort, it allows  
striping a rough or trim area just like a  
green or fairway. It’s just one of dozens of  
conveniences rst suggested to us by crew  
members themselves.  
CLEAR SIGHT LINES.  
Cutting well depends on seeing  
where you’re cutting. The  
geometry of every John Deere  
rough, trim and surrounds mower  
maximizes visibility.  
STRAIGHTER STEERING.  
A unique double-acting steering  
cylinder equalizes left and right  
pressure, so it’s easier to hold a  
straight line.  
HANDY CONTROLS.  
ERGONOMIC TRANSMISSIONS.  
Every model (except 2653B) is equipped with a well-  
placed CommandArm that positions all vital controls  
and diagnostics right at the operator’s ngertips.  
Wide-spaced, low-effort transmission pedals  
work with the natural motion and placement of  
an operator’s foot.

Designed with the  
technician in mind.  
The servicing features on these mowers read  
right out of a technician’s wish list. No sur-  
prise. They were originally on one. It’s the  
techs themselves who tipped us off on the  
need for instant LED diagnostics, tilt-out  
hydraulic oil coolers, and easy access daily  
service points.  
COOLER, MORE  
RELIABLE OPERATION.  
All John Deere rough, trim and  
surrounds mowers have front-  
mounted radiators to draw clean  
air, greatly improving cooling  
efciency and reducing cleaning  
needs compared to rear-mounted  
radiators.  
DIAGNOSTICS MADE EASY.  
White box control modules on all  
mowers enable rapid, accurate  
identication of any service issues.  
TALK ABOUT ALL ACCESS.  
SHARE PARTS AND SHRINK INVENTORY.  
No cramped spaces or less-than-clear layouts to  
work around, ever. That’s real-world reliability.  
All our reel cutting units share many common  
components, reducing the need for you to maintain  
a large parts inventory. The 2653 and 7200 actually  
use the same cutting unit for both traction units.
