Keep your John Deere riding lawn mower running its best and know how you mow with the John Deere MowerPlus app. Simply scan your lawn tractor’s barcode to get custom information on your equipment. The app helps you determine the best time to mow, communicates expert pre-mow tips, offers maintenance reminders, and provides walk-through guides. Ready to mow? Select “Mow Now”, slide your phone into your pocket, and MowerPlus records your mowing path, total mowing time, as well as speed and coverage data for your mowing session. New for 2019 - Get machine information automatically using the new MowerPlus Smart Connector and MowerPlus Hour Meter (see your local dealer for availability and compatibility). Note: The app supports residential lawn equipment such as 100 Series, S240, X300, X500, X700, Z200 through Z600, and many similarly-sized older products. It does not presently support tractor models numbered 1000 and larger, such as 1025R. The app uses most recent product images. Some variation may exist from prior model years.
