John Deere S130 22HP 42" Ride-on Mower

The 100 Series Ride-on Mowers combine strength and reliability with yard-friendly simplicity, comfort and control. With a choice of models and a wide range of features and options to choose from, the 100 Series has something for everyone. These robust ride-on mowers are engineered for years of trouble-free service and combine superb cut quality with outstanding ease of use.

The John Deere S130 lawn tractor is the premium 42-inch deck model of the 100 Series line up. The ride is comfortable. S130 features a hydrostatic transmission, side-by-side foot pedals, enhanced styling, adjustable controls and 15-in open back seat, cruise control, easy read fuel gauge, electric blade engagement and a front bumper. The 22-HP V-Twin John Deere engine has plenty of power to handle tough mulching, mowing and bagging conditions (coverage up to 2 acres). The 42-inch Edge™ Cutting System is time-tested and proven to offer superior cut quality and can be easily equipped to bag or mulch. And John Deere Easy Change™ 30-Second Oil Change System, the original All-In-One oil and oil filter canister, allows anyone to easily change their tractor oil with no hassles and no mess.

Powerful V-twin engine features full-pressure lubrication for dependability and long life

• A 16kW (22-hp) V-twin engine has plenty of power and torque to handle tough mowing, mulching, and bagging
• V-twin cylinder design for greater torque, lower vibration, and improved sound quality
• Electronic ignition for fast starts
• Overhead valves for excellent power and fuel economy
• Full-pressure lubrication and oil filter for cleaner oil, prolonging engine life and extending the time between oil changes

John Deere Easy Change™ 30-second oil change system

The John Deere Easy Change 30-second oil change system makes changing the engine oil easy, quick, and clean. Changing the oil is as easy as twisting on a new oil-filled filter. Oil does not need to be drained from the engine.

Everyone who uses the John Deere Easy Change system saves time and avoids the mess of a traditional oil change. In the past, many 100 Series Lawn Tractor owners rarely or never got around to changing their engine oil. With the 30-second oil change, even people who previously would not consider changing the oil themselves can easily do it. The Easy Change system is a no-mess, no-fuss solution the competition cannot match.
