Identify the John Deere X710 by its tractor PIN, installed engine, deck type and deck serial before selecting service parts. Keep attachment and replacement-engine records separate. The choices below depend on the fitted assembly, not just the model name.
Identify the X710 engine and separate transmission service
Deere’s November 2019 table lists LG245 for X710 serial 010001 onward without naming an engine. Its May 2023 guide also lists LG245. Confirm the actual engine, market and current kit application, especially after an engine replacement; a dated model reference cannot identify that replacement.
The May 2023 guide separates AM107423 engine-oil filter from UC24341 transmission filter and low-viscosity Hy-Gard. Its undated Canadian 60HC webpage instead names AM131054 transmission filter. Resolve the current assembly-specific reference; do not infer a supersession or combine engine and transmission service.
The May 2023 guide has separate sheets for 48 Accel Deep, another 48-inch deck, 54HC and 60HC. Read the actual deck record. Identical cutting width does not establish identical belts or mulch components, and a tractor serial does not replace a deck serial.
Check the actual seat, controls, steering, pedals and lift against the intended operator and task. Ask for faults to be inspected and priced. No model description or photograph proves that a used control or required safety function works correctly.
Read the X710 engine-kit contents before ordering
The May 2023 engine sheet lists M148207 foam and M152049 paper air filters, M138938 spark plugs and AM136739 fuel filter. Compare the current kit’s itemized contents with the confirmed engine and task. No AM116304, AM125424 or M805853 substitution is made here.
Keep fuel-filter identity separate from sales quantities and broad marketplace model lists. The guide’s AM136739 reference is not established by the X700’s early AM116304 branch. Obtain current engine-specific confirmation and follow the applicable fuel-service precautions before buying or working.
Check the intended route and work against the matched manuals’ operating restrictions. Inspect gates, storage and transport access with the deck and attachments included. A mower’s nominal cutting width is not its complete outside width or a guarantee that it suits a particular incline.
Compare work and costs using the same task, fitted equipment, condition and access assumptions. No fuel-use, mowing-time, noise or slope test is supplied here. Use hours and dated repair/service evidence to assess the individual machine rather than carrying over anonymous performance claims.

X710 engine-kit choice after current application checks
Use the installed engine, market and tractor record to confirm the kit and its itemized contents. Keep engine and transmission service separate.
John Deere LG245 maintenance kit
Deere’s November 2019 X710 row lists LG245 from tractor serial 010001 without an engine code; its May 2023 guide also lists the kit. Confirm the actual engine, current market application and itemized contents. Do not infer the fuel-filter contents from a broad model list.

Separate X710 48-inch and 54HC cutting parts
Both May 2023 48-inch sheets name UC22009 standard blades and M127673 mulch blades. The Accel Deep sheet pairs M172662 belt with BUC10705 mulch kit; the other 48-inch sheet pairs M163989 with BM20007. These separate kits and belts require the actual deck type to be identified.
The 54HC sheet lists M164016 standard and M135334 mulch blades, M165156 belt, and mulch kits BM23977 through deck serial 030000 or BM26300 from 030001. Confirm the cutting arrangement and complete installation. A three-blade sales pack is not the complete mulch conversion.
Have visible deck, mounts, guarding, spindle and blade concerns assessed before accepting a used machine. Follow the matched manual for any permitted inspection and adjustment. A new blade pack does not prove the underlying cause of vibration or an uneven cut has been corrected.
Choose the documented blade role after confirming the fitted deck and discharge or mulch equipment. Check the current listing’s reference, quantity and seller. Do not fit a 54HC choice to a 48-inch deck because a marketplace feature list includes several mower models.
Equipment & supplies
X710 48-inch and 54HC blade choices
Choose only the branch for the actual deck and cutting arrangement. The sales packs below do not supply a complete mulch installation.
Accel Deep: UC22009 mower blades
Both May 2023 X710 48-inch sheets list UC22009 standard blades. This offer describes three blades. Confirm the actual deck, current reference and required quantity; its belt and mulch-kit choices still depend on which 48-inch deck is fitted.
M164016 mower blades — three-blade listing
The May 2023 X710 54HC sheet lists M164016 standard blades. Check this three-blade offer against the fitted 54HC deck and desired cutting arrangement. It is not the 48-inch blade choice or a complete mulch conversion.
M135334 mulching blades — three-blade listing
The May 2023 X710 54HC sheet names M135334 mulch blades. Confirm the current 54HC application and separately required mulch equipment, including its deck-serial branch. This three-blade package does not include the complete installation.

Keep X710 60HC blades, belts and mulch kits distinct
The May 2023 60HC sheet lists M163983 standard, TCU15881 high-lift and M168223 mulch blades. Choose the role required by the fitted cutting arrangement. The verified offers here are standard and mulch blade packs; no high-lift or complete conversion offer is supplied.
- The 60HC belt is M163993 through deck serial 070000, M178695 from 070001.
- Its separate mulch kit is BM23978 through deck serial 030000, BM25258 from 030001.
- Use the deck’s serial for these branches and obtain current assembly confirmation before ordering.
The undated Canadian 60HC webpage gives M163993 without that belt boundary and labels BM25258 “Kit – Mulching 48” on the 60HC page. That wording does not prove 48-inch application. Keep the dated deck-specific references separate while a supplier resolves the current fitted assembly.
Use the tractor, engine and attachment manuals for the actual equipment’s intervals, fluids, cleaning and storage. Do not turn a quick-reference parts list into a universal oil-change schedule, refill quantity or instruction to drain fuel. Keep a dated record of completed work.
- Confirm the current blade reference and intended cutting role.
- Count the required pieces separately from a listing’s package quantity.
- Check the full mulch installation and hardware; blades alone do not establish completeness.
Request fault descriptions, inspection findings and repair invoices tied to the PIN and fitted equipment. Separate documentary evidence from a seller’s reassurance. Where uncertainty remains, obtain a qualified inspection and include the resulting repair costs in the offer comparison.
Equipment & supplies
X710 60HC standard or mulch blade packs
Keep standard, high-lift and mulch roles distinct. Confirm the actual 60HC deck, current reference and complete cutting arrangement before buying.
John Deere M163983 mower blades — three-pack
The May 2023 X710 60HC sheet lists M163983 standard blades. Compare this three-pack with the current reference for the actual 60HC deck. A broad marketplace model list does not extend it to a 48-inch or 54HC assembly.
John Deere M168223 mulch blades — three-pack
The May 2023 X710 60HC sheet lists M168223 mulch blades. Confirm the deck and the separate mulch installation, whose kit changes at deck serial 030001. This three-pack supplies blades, not the complete conversion or a high-lift set.

Check X710 deck wheels, leveling and complete attachments
Both May 2023 HC sheets assign UC28193 gage wheel through deck serial 050000, AM148120 from 050001. They name AM130907 leveling gauge and M113955 roller. The two 48-inch sheets instead name AM125172 wheel. Confirm actual hardware and current application; one wheel listing is not a complete deck-wheel set.
The undated Canadian 60HC webpage lists TCU18744 wheel and AM136872 gauge, unlike the May 2023 HC sheets. Resolve these reference differences without guessing a replacement number. Obtain the applicable manual’s preparation, tire-pressure checks, measuring locations and adjustment instructions before leveling.
For any proposed attachment or towing task, check the tractor and attachment manuals, required mounting and guarding, operating restrictions and the complete equipment list. Obtain the attachment’s own identity and instructions. A general X710 listing does not establish a permitted load or a complete installation.
Use the specified shutdown, cooling, isolation and support before permitted access. Follow the matched manual for blade work, fasteners, torque and disposal. A gauge assists the prescribed measurement; it does not diagnose every cutting fault or authorize work without the required preparation.
Ask for written details of each included attachment, missing components, repairs and assembly work. Measure the actual equipment’s gate, storage and transport needs. Confirm suitability for the planned job before ordering accessories that would change the configuration.
Equipment & supplies
X710 HC wheel branch and manual-specified leveling
Keep wheel selection separate from measurement. Resolve the dated and undated reference differences and confirm the actual hardware before ordering.
John Deere UC28193 deck gage wheel
The May 2023 X710 54HC and 60HC sheets assign UC28193 through deck serial 050000, with AM148120 from 050001. Confirm the current wheel and required hardware for the actual deck. This one-wheel offer is not the documented 48-inch wheel choice or a complete set.
John Deere AM130907 deck-level gauge
All four May 2023 X710 deck sheets list AM130907; the undated Canadian 60HC webpage instead lists AM136872. Resolve the current gauge reference for the fitted deck and follow its manual’s preparation and measuring instructions. A gauge does not diagnose every cutting fault.

Assess the actual X710 and complete purchase offer
Compare alternatives against the same intended work, equipment, condition and manual restrictions. Record hours and request dated service and repair documents. No anonymous review or unmeasured time-saving claim establishes how this particular machine will perform.
Check the actual operator position, access, seat adjustment and control reach. Have required safety functions and faults assessed without bypassing devices. A permitted demonstration and documented inspection are more useful purchase evidence than a general comfort claim.
List what is actually included, including deck, collection equipment and other attachments. Ask for the cost of missing mounts, guards, controls or conversion pieces. Possible accessories are not part of the offer unless they are identified and included in writing.
Before ordering a kit, resolve installed-engine identity, the dated serial scope and current itemized contents. For deck parts, confirm deck type, serial and cutting arrangement separately. Keep the supplier’s application confirmation with the purchase and service records.
Include unresolved faults, deferred service, missing equipment and inspection costs in the comparison. Obtain written repair, delivery, finance, warranty and service-support terms. A lower advertised tractor price may leave different costs to resolve before the planned work.

Best investment ever! The comfort level is insane. I can mow my whole yard without feeling like I’ve run a marathon! 😂
Glad to hear that, Michael! Comfort is definitely a plus with the X710!
I’m sold! If it can keep me from feeling sore after mowing, I need this in my life!
Honestly, the price got me worried at first. Is it really worth it? Any long-time users have thoughts?
Many users swear by it! It holds its value well over time.
It’s definitely an investment, but the performance makes it worth every penny, in my opinion.
Just wanted to drop in and say I’ve had a blast using mine! It’s like my new best friend for yard work. 😂 Any fun stories to share?
I always end up racing my neighbor on our mowers—good times!
That’s a great attitude, Alice! Yard work can be fun with the right equipment!
The reviews on this are great, but I’m curious about customer service. Anyone had to reach out to them? How was the experience?
Customer service experiences can vary. Hopefully, someone will chime in!
I had a minor issue once, and they were really responsive and helpful!
I love the color! But seriously, can we talk about how durable this thing feels? I’ve been using it for months and it still looks brand new!
Same here! I’ve had mine for over a year, and it’s held up really well against the elements.
That’s great to hear, Nancy! Durability is a strong point of John Deere products.
I’ve read mixed reviews. Some love it, others not so much. What gives? Is it really that great?
I think the performance really shines if you use it for what it’s meant for.
It really depends on individual needs and expectations!
I just got my John Deere X710 and I have to say, it’s like driving a Cadillac on my lawn! 🚜✨ The features are top-notch, and I love how smooth it runs. Anyone else have tips on maintaining it?
Congrats Sarah! I’ve had mine for a year now, and regular oil changes have kept it running like new! Don’t forget to check the blades often too.
Great tip, Mark! Regular maintenance is key to keeping your tractor in top shape!
Definitely worth it! I previously had a cheaper model, and this one is way better.
I’m thinking about getting one too. Is it really worth the price? 🤔
I’ve had mixed feelings about the X710. It’s great for mowing, but I wish it had more power for hauling. Anyone else feel that way?
I agree, David. For the price, I expected a bit more muscle. It’s perfect for my lawn but not much else.
That’s a valid point, David. It’s designed primarily for mowing and light hauling. What do you usually haul?
I’m not impressed with the fuel efficiency. I expected better from a tractor in this price range. Anyone else feel the same?
Fuel efficiency can vary based on usage, but it’s always good to share experiences.
I’ve noticed that too, Brian. It’s not the worst, but I wish it was better.
Can we appreciate how easy it is to use? I’m not the handiest person, and even I figured it out in no time! 😅
That’s awesome to hear! User-friendliness is key.
Totally agree! The controls are so intuitive.
Does anyone know if the X710 can handle hilly terrain? I have a pretty steep yard and I’m worried it might tip over. 😬
I’ve used mine on slopes, and it’s been fine. Just take it slow on steeper parts.
The X710 is designed for stability, so it should handle hills well, but always exercise caution!
I’m looking into getting the X710 for my large yard. Any last-minute advice before I pull the trigger?
Consider any attachments you might need now, so you don’t have to buy them later.
Make sure you check local dealers for the best deals!
I love the innovative features, but I wish it had a better turning radius. It’s a bit clunky at times. Thoughts?
I agree! It’s a bit of a pain in tight spots, but I’ve gotten used to it.
Turning radius can be a common concern with larger tractors.
The attachments are a game changer! I’ve used mine for snow removal and it works like a charm. Do you guys have any favorite attachments?
Awesome! Attachments really do add a lot of versatility.
@Dave Wilson I was thinking about getting that too! Is it easy to install?
I love the bagger attachment! Makes the end of summer cleanup so much easier.
