John Deere GX255 GX325 GX335 GX345 Garden Tractors Technical Manual TM1973

What's Covered in This Manual

This is the official John Deere TM1973 Technical Manual for the GX255, GX325, GX335, and GX345 Garden Tractors, published by the Worldwide Commercial & Consumer Equipment Division in February 2006 as a North American Version. This manual is written for an experienced technician and is organized the way John Deere structures its residential garden tractor manuals - specifications and information first, followed by identification numbers, tools and materials, component locations, and schematics and harnesses.

Because this four-model lineup used three different Kawasaki engines depending on the specific tractor, the manual includes separate, clearly labeled engine sections for each: the Kawasaki FH531V used in the GX325, the FH601V shared by the GX255 and GX335, and the FD611V used in the GX345 - each with its own dedicated specifications table and complete repair procedures, so a technician services the exact engine installed on the tractor in the shop.

Beyond the engine sections, the manual covers the mower deck, drive system, electrical system wiring and schematics, and steering used across all four models. All four model numbers are confirmed present throughout the manual text. Whether you're troubleshooting a starting issue, servicing the deck, or doing a full engine rebuild on any tractor in this GX-Series lineup, this manual provides the same factory-level procedures a John Deere technician would use.
