The John Deere X530 is a lawn and garden tractor from the John Deere X-series. The John Deere X530 garden tractor was produced from 2010 to 2017. Until 2011, the Kawasaki FH721V engine was installed on the John Deere X530, and since 2011 it used the Kawasaki FS730V engine.
Kawasaki FH721V. The Kawasaki FH721V is a 675 cc (41.20 cu-in) V-twin 90° air-cooled 4-stroke internal combustion small gasoline motor with a vertical shaft. The FH721V has vertical PTO shaft; V-twin 90° design with cast iron cylinder liners and overhead valves (OHV). A 72.5 mm (2.85 in) cylinder bore and 76 mm (2.99 in) piston stroke give the motor a total of 675 cc (41.19 cu-in) of displacement. Compression ratio rating is 8.1:1. The Kawasaki FH721V develops 25 HP (18.6 kW) at 3,600 rpm.
Kawasaki FS730V. The Kawasaki FS730V is a 726 cc (44.3 cu-in) V-twin 90° air-cooled 4-stroke internal combustion small gasoline engine with a vertical shaft. The FS730V has 90 degrees V-twin design with vertical PTO shaft, overhead V-valves, cast iron cylinder liners, and spherical combustion chamber. Bore and stroke are 78.0 mm (3.07 in) and 76.0 mm (2.99 in), respectively. Compression ratio rating is 8.2:1. The Kawasaki FS730V produced 26 HP (19.4 kW) at 3,600 rpm.
The John Deere X530 tractor is equipped with the Kanzaki K72A hydrostatic transmission (infinite forward and reverse), wet disk brakes, foot-activated differential lock, and hydraulic power steering. This tractor used open operator station, independent PTO-shaft with electric clutch and 18.9 L (5.0 US gal.) fuel tank for models with the Kawasaki FH721V engine and 16.7 L (4.4 US gal.) for models with the Kawasaki FS730V engine.
The John Deere X530 garden tractor used mid-mount John Deere 54X (Edge Xtra Mower) – 1,370 mm (54 in) mower deck with 3-blade and with a hydraulic lift.

Who else makes an engine oil that is comparable to and can be used for air cooled engines like my John Deere mower that calls for “John Deere Original Equipment TURF-GARD 32 oz. 10W-30 Oil #TY22029”?
