John Deere 1400/1500 Series Front Rotary Mowers
Four high-powered models that continue John Deere front mowers' 18-year lead in the industry. Armed with high-capacity 7-Iron™ decks, the planet’s strongest and deepest, they mow up to a stunning 12 miles per hour. And with superior airflow and vacuuming, it's not just a fast clip; it's an exceptional one. Precisely crafted, they outlast, outperform and outdistance everything, even the legends of John Deere machines before them.

The 72-inch, 7-Iron™ Mower Deck

The 72-inch, 7-Iron™ Mower Deck
Leaves behind a flawless cut and an entire industry.
Four million pounds of force and in-depth engineering form an incredibly strong (and world's first) 72-inch, seven-gauge stamped steel deck. Shaft-driven blades with maximum overlap, stunning 5.75-inch depth, and full-length front baffle (which brushes grass into an upright position) combine to produce a superior cut—even at 12 miles per hour, during turns and in lush conditions. Recessed spindle housings, stronger-than-steel aluminium spindles and .75-inch thick wraparound bump bar ensure extraordinarily long service life. Mower options also include a 60-inch, side-discharge 7-Iron deck and a new 62-inch, rear-discharge, seven gauge steel FastBack deck.

Tail Follows the Trail Technology

Tail Follows the Trail Technology
Owns the inside track.
With a 72-inch deck, the back of the mower moves in exact proportion to the front, so it's easy to trim contoured landscaping. Models in the 1400 and 1500 Series have a tighter turning radius than conventional front mowers and come equipped with turning brakes allowing for zero-degree turns. Like a zero-turning-radius mower, with a 72-inch deck, you never have to worry about the machine rear striking objects.

High-Torque Gas and Diesel Engines

High-Torque Gas and Diesel Engines
Proven power.
High-tech, liquid-cooled gas and diesel engines (up to 36 hp) precisely match machine tolerances. And all have been field-tested to power through any environment—including dust, heat, cold and punishing terrain.
  • Torque from 45.5 ft.-lb. to 79.4 ft.- lb.
  • Patented high-efficiency air intake system.
  • Full-pressure and self-bleeding fuel systems.
  • Direct injection and self-bleeding fuel systems.


Optional Mechanical 4WD...because the world is not flat

Optional Mechanical 4WD
Rises to any challenge.
Every 1400 Series mower is available with mechanical 4WD and the 1565 comes standard with it. Curbs, bumps and steep inclines are no match for this axle-based drive system. Unlike hydraulic wheel motors, it keeps climbing until an obstacle is overcome. These machines' innovative frame design also allows components (such as the engine) to be placed closer to the ground for a low center of gravity. More impressively: A dual tire option can enhance this already exceptional equilibrium.
