This is a very sturdy and well built mower. I thought I wouldn't like the foot operated speed control but after one use kzread.infoUgkxTZSPVwJFBv2hORqhQamtxi-tAe5K2EtC , I can't believe I ever had one without it. It drives like a car with an automatic transmission. Easy to adjust mowing speed according to grass depth/thickness. I have yet to get used to the long throw of the blade engagement lever but kind of get why it is that way. It allows you to hold mowing for short moments if you need. The engine seems very substantial and the frame has very little flex, both adding up to an impressive package. All my previous tractors were 18 to21 hp with 42in decks. This one is 23/46. I mow about 1.5 acres about every 5 days here in Alaska and that mowing time has been reduced by about 20%, partly due to the very tight turning radius. No loop arounds lol. Hour meter, cruise control, reverse mowing capability,deck cleanout and easy assembly all add up to a very well thought out tractor.
You did well--no yelling and she did better that most beginners. ''Happy Trails'' to ya !!
Thanks, my husband passed away in December and I'm heading out to the garage to start it up and mow for the first time. It was nice to watch you teach your wife. She did great! I can only hope my first time goes as well :)

Good luck !!! Mowing grass...
Bless her what a great job and not phased by you sticking the camera on her, a nice confident young lady.
That lady is a quick learner, her dexterity is awesome! Respect to you guys!
Finally someone who knows not to engage blades at full power! THANK YOU!!
Ryan, I think you want your lawn looking better than it ever does, when you are mowing it. Jamie improves the view, and gets it done. I wonder who will do the haying next year? My best to the lovely lady. It is a joy to see you both.
Awww... she's SO pretty! Talented too. Think she's a keeper! Main thing is a willingness to learn... We all gotta start somewhere! I started on lawn tractors, moved up to the Ford 8N Jubilee raking hay, then cutting hay with the sickle bar, and then shredding cotton stalks on the Ford 6600... Then Grandpa died and I ended up doing nearly everything within a year because Dad worked full time. Keep up the good work! OL J R :)
This is really cool! Just an idea if you have two lawn tractors you can do it at the same time and get it done in half the time! I also think that she is ready for a clutch!
Ryan, you can use a stick under the deck start switch, to keep it up, so the deck doesn't shut down when you back up. We bought one last year, May too, 738, 4 wheel drive one. I got half of a clothes pin, tide a plastic string around the think end, tide the other end around the steering column. Use the narrow end to stick it under the switch, in as far as the notch on the pin, so it can't slip out. We have a 345 too, same stick under the switch to hold it up.
She's a fast learner
You are a good teacher and she will pick it up real fast and be in a big tractor soon.
Cute to see the cat take off! Thanks for doing this video. I am teaching a young adult to mow and you gave me some ideas.
He's smart!! While she's mowing he can sit on the porch and drink beer😁
This video taught me how to mow with a riding lawn mower. Thank you for this video. Big thumbs up
Hahaha Im pretty impressed she did really good! must be a good teacher!!

This is a garden tractor/the 5 lug bolt pattern. This thing was designed to do some work & pull a plow through the dirt & haul crap, sucks it’s a gas, you need a diesel man!
Jamie mowed well for her first time. She learns fast.
Good plan, my wife does the cutting with her own kubota diesel tractor. I went through a set of blades early on, but it was worth it to never have to cut the grass again. ;-)
Hello from Australia🇦🇺. Good video. Cheers! 👍
wow what a beautiful X730! we got a X155R and its a really good one, JD is building really good lawn mowers!:D
She did really good.

Ryan, always run small engines, air cooled engines, at near full throttle. The fan running at full speed is what keeps the engine cool.

Thats not air cooled. The X730's are liquid cooled.
I started driving a tractor and plowing be on at nine years old the first time I learned was drive a tractor was 5 that was a full-size tractor But she’s a quick learner
you might not have to mow lawn anymore, but I can guarantee you will have to replace the deck blades twice as often..

People need to teach anything this way they learn so much faster
Tried one of those today ( but it was a Viking MT6127 ) so much fun!🤣
(yoda) strong with the force she is, but much to learn, she still has
Good for her she’s an early learner
Life on a farm...fond memories.

I'll stick to my 83 john deer 318. I love it!!
That's a pretty fancy lawn mower, maybe I'm used to the smaller older ones
Good job, Jamie!
Great vid Ryan! Put her in the 4020 now! :)
Let her practice on an old John Deere 200 series or a 60's-70's era Cub Cadet with gear drive. Much more like driving a tractor. You're spoiling her with that $12,000 X series machine lol

He said he had a plan, he is going to turn her into a hard core farmer. :) Well, now she need to get paid! Don't forget that. :)
You might want to latch on to her, she's a keeper.
Fast learner! That's how my Grandad taught me
shes learning fast. now she just has 2 learn how 2 do that on the go.
@How Farms Work she did a pretty good job.
I'd love to live at a place like yours
Man every time I watch tall grass get cut it makes me wanna mow lol. There's about 10 inches of snow on the ground right now... Wish I had a plow for my mower that would be nice.
I had to have brick behind me sitting on the seat because it would always turn off because I was so short and wouldn't have that weight thing tripped. I put a clothes peg under the pull tab for the mower so it would still go when I was reversing.
Very nice mower! Has everything lol
Great video Ryan.
How Farms Work...you get a pretty girl and she doe's all the work
Good job Jamie
Jamie I have a tip keep the left side on the the edge of the lawn
Two things......someone said she should tie back her hair, very true.....and earplugs. :-) The first time I mowed I didn't use them..2 hours straight... I couldn't hardly hear when I got done. She did an awesome job!

Jamie Procarione ok.....then have fun going def when your 40. These people are giving you legitimate advice and your taking a dump on them for it. Did you use any earplugs? No.....you didn't. Look I get that you "think" you know everything but the fact is if you did......you would have had the earplugs in. Maybe take the criticism for what it is instead of spiting your viewers for pointing out something that you obviously overlooked. Maybe a better reply would look like....."yeah I know I should but I didn't this time" Because then you at least acknowledge that you do see your own mistakes.
😅😅that cat ran
I like the Zero Turn mowers even more because they are easier to turn and does the job much quicker also. I can mow twice as much grass with it than this conventional lawn tractor which can't maneuver like the Zero Turns.

With lawn tractors you can take off the mower part and put attachments like snow blower and plow which are controlled by the mower controlls
ive had a few John deere tractors they are great,im getting a new one to mow with the s240,ha she did a good job learning,i thought,ha later.
Nice mower. First class. I thought u bought one a auction
Nice work! I learned a few things!
My first was a 110 .
I'm 16 and bought my own mower... I can't believe that she's never driven something like this...
what is the number 1 thing to no when you get to a new tractor
That is precious
good man, you taught her to mow your lawn...
But isn't there a automatic tractor mower cus I definitely at the same time need to practice for driving
I got my mower when I was 9 years old it is a 345 John Deere and I am 11 years old
Great job.
Im retired I have a ride on mower I mow my kids lawn But there going to uni or working So they all way seem to be to busy to getting around to mowing my lawn. But my kids do some times mow my lawn not as much as they did when they were young going to high school but now thy seem to stay away Any way This was four years ago is she still using it to day. as before That wining nose sound like it got a worn bearing
6:27 Bet thats not the first time shes heard that.
That's one sweet tractor :) Out of curiosity I googled it.... YOWZA! I was thinking $5k or so. Try almost $11k! Too rich for my blood!

yea but the X730 is a really big one...on a farm like ours (we got maybe 5000 squaremetres we use a X155R( maybe 6500$) and its absolutly right for a farm like ours. i think they have more than 1 farm and its a good choice to buy a bigger one.
Run full throttle on air cooled engines. That's how they keep cooler.
Wow. My x530 won't even come close to stalling if you engage the blades at idle.
Jane!!....Stop this crazy thing!!!! When are we going to start chopping corn?
Need to tell Jamie when she doing sumtin like dat she need to put her hair in a ponytail. Lmao
Get her on the 8235R
In Britain, mowing lawns is something that you would expect a man to be doing, but women do it as well. Jamie did very well for a a beginner
she looked mortified lol bless,
Hey my papa rigged it so he has a string and when he goes around poles he pulse the string so the shoot comes up
Half speed for one it's half throttle and two no that's not at all what you use it bogs your motor there for wearing the motor faster if you run full throttle or where the pto mark is it'll be fine, and no it doesn't hurt to start your pto at full throttle

Race Grover I don't know any manufactures that say otherwise. You always engage at full throtle. Basically anything you do is at full throtle.
I think that she should practice with an old 5-speed mower
She is too preoccupied with her hair. She needs to put it in a pony tail and stop fixing it while she works. Long hair is also a Safety Hazard around machinery.
