What is the difference between the 3 E140 blades and the mulching blades separately available?

The E140 lawn tractor is equipped with 3-in-1 blades that can be used for mowing, collecting or mulching. Mulching blades are recommended for difficult mulching conditions.

The E140 is good for hilly terrain, black mountain terrain, walking uphill and downhill?

It is never recommended to blow and use a water heater on slopes greater than 13 ° when the mower is in its basic configuration (no accessory). When using accessories, it is not recommended to grind or work at an angle greater than 10 °. Refer to Chapter 10 – Safety – Working on slopes in the operator’s manual for detailed instructions.

How does the reverse cut button work? Does it need to be constantly pressed, or does it fall into place?

We do not recommend supporting the mower running. The option for reversible attachments should be used only when other attachments are used or when the operator deems it necessary to move the machine with the rake engaged. See Chapter 30 – Operating the User’s Guide for additional safety information and instructions for using the RIO button. Many manuals are available online, so you can access the manual for your model on manuals.deere.com.

Can this E 140 handle insufflations well?
