Building on several years of investment in commercial mowing and compact equipment, John Deere is bringing its most complete professional landscaping portfolio yet to the 2026 Equip Expo.
The company debuted the SS36M and SS52M Sprayer-Spreader, A30M Aerator and SW635M EFI Sidewalk Snow Machine, while giving attendees a first look at the new 10 G-Tier and 12 G-Tier Utility Track Loaders. John Deere will also introduce Complete Fleet, powered by John Deere Rewards, a dedicated fleet program designed to help landscape contractors build and grow their equipment fleets.
“Professional contractors need equipment and support that can keep pace with every phase of the job and every season,” said Luke Gribble, marketing manager, John Deere. “These additions help customers take on more work, from turf health and winter maintenance to landscape installation and construction, while Complete Fleet provides savings and financing options designed to grow alongside their businesses.”

To help contractors expand their turf health services, the new SS36M and SS52M Sprayer-Spreaders combine liquid spraying and granular spreading capabilities in a stand-on, zero-turn design. The narrow SS36M helps crews access tighter areas, while the larger SS52M provides additional capacity for covering larger properties. Both models offer additional attachments that help contractors configure the machines for different applications and operating conditions.

For contractors looking to make aeration and overseeding more productive, the new A30M Aerator uses a stand-on, zero-turn platform to reduce operator fatigue and help crews cover more properties with less effort. Its 30-inch aerating width and automatic depth control support consistent soil penetration across varying conditions. An optional drop seed box allows operators to overseed while aerating, helping crews complete two turf health services in a single pass.

First shown as a concept at Equip Expo last year, the sidewalk snow machine returns following extensive winter testing as the officially named SW635M EFI Sidewalk Snow Machine. The compact stand-on model helps crews clear sidewalks with a standard WESTERN 4-foot hydraulic blade, while available for brine and granular salt drop systems to support ice control applications. Its extended operating capacity also helps crews take on longer winter workdays.

Attendees will also get a first look at the new 10 G-Tier and 12 G-Tier Utility Track Loaders (UTL), designed to help professional landscape contractors take on installation, construction and design-build work more efficiently. The two compact, powerful, and versatile stand-on models offer a range of attachments that help reduce manual labor and allow crews to efficiently complete work.

Alongside the equipment introductions, John Deere is launching Complete Fleet, powered by John Deere Rewards, a dedicated fleet program designed to grow with landscape contractors. The program offers increased discounts across the John Deere portfolio, including commercial mowers, compact construction equipment, compact tractors, Gator Utility Vehicles and the new turf health and four-season products. Contractors can also access special financing offers from John Deere Financial designed with their cash flow needs in mind. Once approved, contractors can participate without a minimum machine purchase requirement. Customers maintain their program status for one year with one qualifying purchase or two years with two qualifying purchases.
Together, the new models give professional landscape contractors more options to build a John Deere equipment fleet for year-round work. Each machine includes a JDLink™ modem as standard, providing access to machine data through John Deere Operations Center™. Customers can also take advantage of flexible financing options through John Deere Financial and support from the John Deere dealer network, including trained technicians and readily available parts. Equip Expo attendees can see the SS36M and SS52M Sprayer-Spreaders, A30M Aerator and SW635M EFI Sidewalk Snow Machine and get a first look at the 10 G-Tier and 12 G-Tier Utility Track Loaders Oct. 21-23, 2026, in Louisville, Kentucky.
