Beyond the sweeping round

Keep the X700 working all year.

Match the action to the problem: blow loose leaves, treat weeds with heat, renovate gravel, clear snow or cut rougher grass. Each needs its own mounting and power specification.

Tractor-mounted mower on a John Deere tractor

Grass, banks & rough cutting

Rotary & flail mowers

Front or rear mounted · PTO driven

Choose a mounted mower for rougher grass, banks and areas the deck can’t reach.

Rotary mowers suit regular cutting; flail mowers handle longer, rougher growth and leave a finer finish.

Choose by width, PTO speed and the linkage you have, and confirm weight against the X700’s lift capacity.

Rotary mowers → Flail mowers

Choose the system before the individual parts

A linkage lifts.
A PTO or hydraulic supply powers.

For most front attachments, the complete installation is:

X700 tractor→ Front linkage→ PTO / hydraulic supply→ ABR bracket→ Attachment

The linkage provides the lift and coupling. The ABR bracket connects the attachment to that coupling. The drive system provides the working power. Buying one does not automatically provide the others.

Two front-linkage routes. The Matev Cat 0 front linkage takes Kersten’s ABR 45 KD bracket. If your tractor already has John Deere Quick-Tach, the ABR 45 US- bracket adapts KM45 sweepers to it.

Which X700 models does the linkage suit?

The FL JD X700 kit (Matev FPS-JD X700/X900) lists the X740, X748, X749, X750, X754 and X758. The same kit also fits the X900 series. Petrol X700 models, such as the X730, X734 and X738, are not on the list. Send your model, serial number and photographs so the complete installation can be checked.

Check the Compatibility Centre → Explore linkage & PTO systems

1. Rear PTO: avoid a front conversion

With the optional rear PTO and three-point hitch, the HKM40 rear sweeper and WE gravel renovator work from the back of the tractor. This can be the simplest route when the rear working position suits the site.

2. Front hydraulics: add a dedicated supply

The KM 13045 H needs 20 l/min of continuous oil flow. A rear PTO hydraulic pack gives it an independent 30 l/min supply, piped to the front through an extension hose set.

3. Front mechanical PTO: match speed and rotation

Mechanically driven front attachments need a front PTO arrangement matched to the attachment’s gearbox, shaft, speed and rotation. Confirm what your X700 model offers before choosing a PTO-driven front attachment.

Check the lift capacity

The Matev X700/X900 linkage lists 420 kg lifting force at the coupling point. Allow for the attachment, bracket, a full collector, water tanks or gas bottles when specifying the complete setup.

Build the tractor-side installation

Linkage, bracket and power options, explained.

These are the main tractor-side components. Ask us to specify the matching linkage, drive and bracket around your exact X700 and attachment.

Have an X900 instead? See attachments for the John Deere X900 Series. For a rear hydraulic pack, the 5 m front hose extension set is a separate component.

What happens to the material matters.

Collect it or leave a windrow?

Open sweeping moves material aside. A collector removes it from the site, useful where soil and organic debris would otherwise return to the surface. Allow for the weight of a full collector.

Compare sweeper systems →

Clean the edges as well

A gully brush draws loose material from kerbs and edges into the main brush’s path. Established vegetation may need a weed brush first, followed by collection of the loosened debris.

Explore weed brushes →

Plan for dry, dusty work

Consider brush speed, a debris guard and water suppression. Water binds fine particles but does not replace collecting the material, and its weight needs including in the complete setup.

Choose around the material →

Questions before you choose

What can an X700 do with Kersten attachments?

With a front linkage and the right drive, an X700 becomes a compact tool carrier with lift, lower and angling functions. It can sweep, blow leaves, treat weeds thermally, renovate gravel, clear snow and cut rougher grass, alongside its own mowing deck work.

Can the X758 drive a hydraulic sweeper on its own hydraulics?

The KM 13045 H needs 20 l/min of continuous flow. The configurator uses a dedicated rear PTO hydraulic pack, which supplies 30 l/min independently of the tractor’s own lift and steering hydraulics. Confirm your tractor’s rear PTO and hitch before ordering.

Matev linkage or John Deere Quick-Tach?

Both can carry a KM45 sweeper. The Matev Cat 0 linkage uses the ABR 45 KD bracket; John Deere Quick-Tach uses the ABR 45 US- bracket. If Quick-Tach is already fitted, it is usually the quickest route. Tell us which you have.

My X700 model isn’t listed. Can it still be fitted?

The FL JD X700 kit lists the X740, X748, X749, X750, X754 and X758. For petrol models such as the X730, X734 and X738, or the four-wheel-steer X739, send the model, serial number and photos so we can check what will fit.

What warranty do the attachments carry?

Kersten attachments for the X700 series come with a commercial two-year warranty.

What should I send for a quotation?

Send the exact X700 model, year or serial number, photos of the front and rear of the tractor, whether a rear PTO, rear hitch or Quick-Tach is fitted, and the job and access width. Include any collection, angling or dust-control options you need.

Rear-mounted sweepers → KM45 front sweepers → Snow ploughs → Snow blowers → Mounted weed burners → Flail mowers →
