The recalled mowers have the model number at the front of the foot platform and on the serial number tag under the seat.
Why it was recalled
A bolt in the right-hand steering lever can catch on the tab of the foot lift stop and lock in place, causing the steering lever to remain in the forward travel position, posing an injury hazard to the driver.
Incidents and injuries
There were no injuries reported.
Official remedy
Customers should stop using the mowers immediately and contact a John Deere dealer to make arrangements to have the lift stop bracket removed from their machine. All John Deere tractor dealers were notified of this recall and registered owners of the recalled mowes will be directly contacted by the firm.
