John Deere Z345R Mower Blade FAQ

What should you check when fitting a 21.38 in (543 mm) blade on the John Deere Z345R?

A 21.38 in (543 mm) blade needs the right center hole, lift style and deck clearance. That is a common lawn tractor blade length range, but it still needs the right center hole, sail/lift shape and deck fitment. Spin the blade by hand after fitting to confirm it clears the deck

Can you modify a John Deere Z345R blade center hole to fit?

Do not do that. The captured center-hole detail is 1 in (25 mm). Grinding or drilling a mower blade can ruin balance and create vibration

Should you buy one John Deere Z345R blade or a full set?

The single blade number captured is M170639, and the set number captured is GY20683. If one blade is bent from damage, one may be fine; if they are worn down, replacing the full set usually gives a cleaner cut

Which blade type should you use on the John Deere Z345R?

The blade type captured is high-lift, mulching, and standard. Use that against the captured fitment value 21.38 in (543 mm). High-lift helps bagging/discharge; mulching blades need the right mulching setup

Official information note

Mistakes do happen. Blade specs can change by year, mower deck, spindle, serial range and regional parts catalog. Please check the operator manual, old blade stamp, deck tag and official John Deere parts catalog before ordering replacement blades.
