Introduction
John Deere D130 Lawn Tractor
The John Deere D130 is a lawn tractor manufactured in Greeneville, Tennessee, USA, between 2011 and 2017. As part of the D100 series, it is designed for residential lawn maintenance and offers a balance of power and operational comfort.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a Briggs & Stratton 40 air-cooled, vertical-shaft V-Twin gasoline engine. With a displacement of 655 cc (40 ci) and a gross power output of 22 hp (16.4 kW), the unit provides sufficient torque for mowing tasks. It utilizes an electric starter and a cartridge-style air cleaner, with an engine oil capacity of 2 quarts (1.9 liters).
Transmission and Drivetrain
The D130 features a Tuff Torq T40 hydrostatic transmission. This belt-driven system allows for infinite forward and reverse speed control via right-side foot pedals, while a left-side pedal manages the mechanical shoe brakes. Cruise control is provided as standard equipment to reduce operator fatigue during extended mowing sessions.
Operator Environment
The machine is equipped with an open operator station featuring a 15-inch tall adjustable seat, which offers 5.5 inches of travel across ten distinct positions. Practical elements include a fender-mounted cup holder and optional accessories such as a nylon sunshade canopy or a snow enclosure for seasonal versatility.

The tractor rides on 15x6.00-6 front and 20x10.00-8 rear turf tires. It has a wheelbase of 48.9 inches and a total weight of 470 lbs. The unit is configured with a 42-inch mower deck and includes a manual independent mid-PTO for attachment management.
Conclusion
