  John Deere Generator for x500 series

Mike1819; I'm not real sure which engine Deere uses in the 595, but I can't see any damage coming from contunious operatio long as periodic checks are kept on engine oil level, coolant level, etc. They're probably called something else today, but in past years engines for generators, irrigaton pumps etc. had what we called "Murphy Switches". All they really were are oil pressure and temperature sensors that would shut the engine down in case of a lube ot coolant failure. I'm sure they are still available and likely could be adapted to your mower. We used to put a fuel barrel beside an "M" Farmall to power a grain drier in the fall that ran 24/7. We wre lucky but others had fan belt failures or ran low on oil and cost them an engine, so the "Murphy Switches" would add a level of comfort. Best of luck. Frank.

  John Deere Generator for x500 series

The diesel in the X-series will kick the Deere generator along at full power.

I know people with remote lodges in Alaska who turn on their diesel generators in the spring and shut them down when they leave in the fall.

Assuming the parameters Frank mentioned above, I see no problem running your little diesel 200 hours straight, shutting down to change the oil, and going right back at it.
