R200 DISC MOWER Mowing FAQs
How wide does the John Deere R200 disc mower cut?
The John Deere R200 has a 6.58 ft (2 m) width of cut with five disks and 10 knives. It weighs 1,025 lb and lifts hydraulically.
What size tractor do I need for the John Deere R200 disc mower?
The R200 needs a minimum of 35 PTO hp (26 kW) at 540 rpm. It attaches to tractors with a Category 1 or 2 three-point hitch, but it is not quick-hitch compatible.
How does the John Deere R200 hook up to my tractor?
The R200 uses an easy-to-attach three-point hitch, and the parking stand holds up the hitch arms for easy hookup. The lower hitch pins adjust left or right with an offset range of 7 in. (172 mm) to match tractors with wider tire spacing.
How fast do the discs spin on the John Deere R200?
The R200's high-speed rotary discs turn at 2,986 rpm to cut in tough conditions. Power reaches the discs through fully enclosed gears running in oil, and a spring-loaded belt tensioner makes belt adjustment easier.
Is the John Deere R200 disc mower easy to service?
Yes. Disc quills remove from the top of the cutterbar, and disc drive-shaft shears help protect the cutterbar from internal damage if an object is struck. Each disc has two free-swinging knives with two cutting edges, which doubles their use life.
