2025 John Deere PrecisionCut™ 8900A

2025 John Deere PrecisionCut™ 8900A

• The 8900A features a width of 114 to 130 inches depending on cutting unit size, giving more productivity in terms of acres mowed per hour.

• Another productive advantage of the 8900A is the 8 miles per hour mowing speed.

• Be productive but carry a light footprint: the 8900A comes in significantly lighter than its main competitor.

• Versatility is a hallmark: 8900A has 26" and 30" verticutters and large capacity reel motors for scalping during over-seed operations.

Features may include:

• More control with the TechControl display with a large easy-to-read screen

• Passcode-protected TechControl display enables quickly setting or changing mowing speed, turning speed, or transport speed to limit variations in performance by different operators.

• Quickly adjust the mow or transport speed to make sure mow speed is what is needed for the changing conditions. The setting can be adjusted precisely using a speedometer app on a smartphone or global positioning system (GPS) device.

• Use the TechControl to slow the machine during turns while mowing and protect against turf scuffing and aggressive turning operators.

• The 9009A TerrainCut and the 8900A PrecisionCut utilizes the same eHydro traction pump and wheel motors in the A-model take performance, traction, and operation to the next level. This is combined with the standard GRIP system that reduces wheel slip by sending flow from the front wheel to the opposite rear wheel.

• The system is designed to take on the most challenging course conditions ideal for undulating terrain, providing superior performance and traction out on the course.

• The traction system in the A-models is driven by a servo-controlled hydrostatic pump. The control of the pump is no longer mechanical linkages, but instead it is electronic. The design reduced the complexity of the drive system meaning no more linkages to adjust or repair decreased routine maintenance and providing reliable day-in/day-out operation.

• The end result is more options for mowing different terrain then just straight up and down. The standard GRIP system ensures that when mowing slopes on an angle the high side tire maintains tractions unlike like mechanical systems used on other rough mowers. This increases productivity in tight areas and reduces damage to turf from wheel slippage.

• For superior traction with a true hydraulic four-wheel drive (4WD), the GRIP all-wheel drive traction system is standard on the 8900A Large-Area Reel Mower. This system reduces wheel slip by sending flow from the front wheel to the opposite rear wheel.

• For example, if the front-right wheel starts to slip, hydraulic flow is diverted to the left-rear wheel to maintain positive traction. By allowing the flow to cross over to the opposite rear wheel, the system maintains traction not only while climbing straight up hills, but also on side hills, as well.

• The GRIP all-wheel drive traction system is always engaged when driving forward. There are no electronics to engage the 4WD system, simplifying the electrical system and the design of the valve at the rear of the machine.

• In reverse, a standard switch is provided that disengages 4WD. The switch senses that the reverse pedal has been depressed and shuts off flow to the rear drive wheels.
