2025 John Deere - Lawn X590, 48-in. Deck

• 25.5-hp (19.0 kW)* iTorque™ Power System
• 48-in. (122 cm) Accel Deep™ Deck, compatible with optional MulchControl™ kit with one-touch technology
• Electronic throttle control and power two-wheel steer
• 4 year/500 hour bumper-to-bumper warranty

Features May Include: 

• V-twin engine has electronic fuel injection (EFI) and electronic throttle control for quick starts and superior performance

The tractor is powered by a John Deere iTorque power system, a combination of engine features and an exclusive hood design providing superior lugging ability, even cooling, and durability. Key engine features include:

• 25.5 hp (19 kW)
• Large 44.3-cu in. (726-cc) displacement
• V-twin air-cooled design 
  • Excellent power and performance
  • Smooth, quiet power
  • Easy starts
• Quality features include:
  • Cast-iron cylinder liners
  • Overhead valves
  • Full-pressure lubrication
  • Replaceable oil filter
  • Dual-stage air cleaner
• Solenoid-shift starter for easy starts, even in cold weather

• Electronic fuel injection (EFI)

  • EFI meters the correct amount of fuel directly into each engine cylinder for all operating conditions.
  • It simplifies engine starts and warm-up by eliminating the need for the operator to use a choke.
  • Fuel usage is reduced up to 10 percent compared to a carbureted engine.

• Electronic throttle control

  • Electronic throttle control works in conjunction with EFI to electronically adjust the supply of fuel air mixture, to increase torque as needed to maintain engine operating speed under load.
  • Ground speed and mower blade-tip speed remain constant, even in heavy-grass conditions, to improve productivity and cut quality.
    • Mechanical governors cannot respond fast enough to maintain a constant engine speed.
  • Some torque rise remains to warn the operator before the engine stalls.
  • X590 Tractor's electronic throttle control is a first in the mowing industry.

No choke control is needed for the EFI engine because a servo motor controls the intake air butterfly valve and the air stream. For cold starts, the actuator closes the valve, making starting the engine easier - no choke lever is needed. Starts are quick and easy, even for inexperienced operators.

The advanced engine features provide the following advantages:

• Electronic throttle control improves performance.

  • Mowing time is reduced as the electronic throttle control keeps the engine operating at optimum speed, responding instantaneously as the mower transitions from light to heavy mowing.
  • Cut quality is improved, especially in difficult mowing conditions, because the electronic throttle control keeps the mower blades turning at full speed, delivering optimal cut quality and dispersion of clippings. While snow blowing, maintaining the fan speed enables consistent snow placement.

• EFI increases uptime.

  • Fast, reliable starts are routine just like with a modern automobile. EFI automatically meters fuel, including the extra fuel needed to start a cold engine. Flooding by unnecessary choking of a warm engine is eliminated. No carburetor adjustments are needed at altitude.
  • No choke-related problems since the choke is eliminated, thus ensuring operator confidence and quick starts, even in cold ambient temperatures (snow blower use). The mechanical throttle cable is replaced by an electric linkage that is not susceptible to wear or freezing.

• Cost of ownership is reduced.

  • EFI precisely meters fuel to each engine cylinder. Fuel usage can be expected to be about 10 percent less than with a similar carbureted tractor.
  • Reduced maintenance expense because of fewer complaints related to hard starting, vapor lock, misfire, run-on, or fouled spark plugs.

• The X590 Tractor, including the engine, is covered by a 4-year/500-hour bumper-to-bumper warranty*.

Flywheel alternator

A flywheel alternator provides plenty of capacity to quickly recharge the battery and power electrical equipment, such as lights or a sprayer:

• 15-amp charging capacity
• Regulated to keep the battery at a full charge, without risk of overcharging

*Term limited to years or hours used, whichever comes first, and varies by model. See the LIMITED WARRANTY FOR NEW JOHN DEERE TURF AND UTILITY EQUIPMENT at JohnDeere.com or JohnDeere.ca/TUWarranty for details.

Quality fuel system components enhance performance and convenience:

• Large, 4.4-U.S. gal. (16.6-L) capacity
• Wide, 3-in. (7.6-cm) diameter fuel tank filler opening
  • Located on the left fender
  • Makes adding fuel easy and helps eliminate spillage
• Sealed and tethered fuel cap
  • Reduced fuel vapor loss
  • Less chance of losing fuel cap
• Automotive-style fuel gauge on the dash
  • Easy to read from tractor seat
  • Reduces likelihood of running out of fuel
  • Eliminates unnecessary stops to refill

• 48-in. (122-cm) Accel Deep™ (48A) Mower Deck cuts clean and is versatile

The 48-in. (122-cm) Accel Deep Mower Deck is a forged-steel, deep, flat-top design that delivers excellent cut quality, productivity, cleanliness, durability, and versatility. Optimal performance and dispersion of clippings is provided, even at faster mowing speeds or in tall grass:

• 4.83-in. (12.3-cm) depth throughout the entire deck shell for optimum mowing, mulching, and bagging performance
  • Optional lever-action or electric one-touch MulchControl™ system provides superior mulching performance and versatility.
• Forged-steel design eliminates sharp edges and corners where material can build up and diminish mowing performance
• Mower deck is suspended from the vehicle for a smooth and level cut
  • Adjustable mower wheels, positioned just above ground level, help reduce scalping 
• 0.25-in. (6.4-mm) cut-height increments allow the mower to be set at the desired cut height
• Compatible with high-performance Power Flow™ material collection systems
• For use on X330, X350, X354, X370, X380, X384, X390, X394, X570, X580, X584, and model year 2016 and newer X590 Tractors

Deep mower-deck forging gives excellent cut quality. It allows the cut and suspended material room to exit the deck without getting recut:

• Reducing the amount of recutting enables more power to be used to cut incoming grass, which greatly improves mower capacity.
  • Helps maintain excellent cut quality at faster mowing speeds
• Clean flow of material out of discharge area prevents cut material from interfering with cutting the incoming grass, making it possible for the blades to cut incoming material cleanly.
• Even in mulching mode, cut evenness is improved compared to other designs because the additional depth allows for continuous circulation, optimal recutting, and an even distribution of clippings.
• Exact Adjust deck-leveling system allows for easy and accurate leveling of the mower deck.

Productivity - getting the job done fast

Deep mower-deck forging gives high productivity, which gets the job done fast. It allows the cut and suspended material room to exit the deck quickly, reducing the amount of recutting so more power is available to process incoming grass:

• Greatly improves mower's capacity to maintain excellent mowing performance in difficult mowing conditions and at higher speeds

Large discharge opening is both high and wide to handle more material:

• Gives a smooth, even discharge of clippings at all mowing speeds
• Reduces the chance of plugging, especially important when operating in wet, thick, or dense grass and when bagging
• The 48A Power Flow blower has an inlet housing with over 50 percent greater area than the 48X Power Flow blower used on previous machines.

 flat-top shape of the deck forging is optimal for keeping itself and the operator clean:

• There are few places to catch and hold material on top and underneath the deck.
  • Top of deck stays cleaner, reducing time and effort needed for cleaning and service
  • Underside of deck is self-cleaning to maintain optimum performance without buildup of material to interfere with the flow of air and clippings
  • Less need to clean and remove buildup of material from underside deck
• The depth of the Accel Deep mower deck minimizes the amount of material that escapes from the front of the deck:
  • Limited amount of material to drift onto the operator and mower deck
  • Even for material discharged out the chute, less recutting results in larger pieces that are less likely to end up on the operator
  • Mulching prevents the discharge of material completely and MulchControl makes mulching a practical solution for most mowing situations.

Cleaning a mower deck, both top and bottom, is one of the most frequent maintenance activities:
