Had 500 hours on my Home Depot Deere. 17 hp single.
I never adjusted the valves and a pushrod went clean thru the head.

56 hours on a 2014 Kubota Z121s
900 hours on my SCAG Turf Tiger 61" cut with Kohler Command Pro 25 HP engine. Most of those hours were put on by the original owner from whom my wife inherited the machine. We only put about 30 hours/year on it cutting two acres around the house. It is 19 years old, built like a brick outhouse, and runs great.
2.5 on my new snapper zero turn.
I’ll hit 2600 on my John-Deere 757 this year. I bought it from the original owners whom I’ve known for years. They mowed commercially with it for roughly 10 years but took great care of it. I will Repower it when the engine finally lets go. It’s got a lot of blow by and is leaking out of the crank seals now. She’s also getting new tires this season too.
1995 John Deere 425 AWS, 54" deck.
3,220 hours on a Kawasaki FD620D engine, which is a 20 hp, 2 cylinder, liquid cooled v-twin.
Engine oil is changed every 100 hours with 10w-30, and a $3 oil filter.
Hydrostat fluid/filter (JD Lo-Vis Hy-Gard / JD spin-on filter) and coolant (Peak Long Life) every other year.
Air filter and spark plugs every other year.

My Deere D130 has 50 hrs. I put 2 hrs per year on it. It won't need an oil change until 2045.
150brs on 2013 toro timecutter ss5000
John Deere D140; same engine as yours. 167 hours now. Average 30 hours per season using M1 10w-30 High Mileage and a Fram TG3614 filter. I am running the filters for two seasons now since the oil looks almost new after those 30 hours.
1200 or so on my 318. Had around 800 when I resurrected it. Still the original motor going strong. Uses some oil but not enough to make the plugs look nasty.
Estimating 450 hours on our Ariens ztr from 2011, at roughly 50 hours per year. I run PP in it and think this oil has been in it 23 months and 2 weeks. The oil level has dropped from the full mark to the 1/3 mark. runs like a Swiss watch. Yes, it gets an OC this year. Oil was basically full and still clear last year. I mow our house and usually another 1-2 homes depending. Briggs 14.5.
270+ on my craftsman t3200 but at least 24 if those are from the ignition being left on one day. Briggs platinum doesnt burn any oil and rips like a dream.
My Cub's Courage 18hp Twin has 86 hours on it. Using SuperTech High Mileage Full Synthetic 10w30 now but I'll be switching to Rotella T4 or T5 next Spring.
Over 500 hours on my 2011 Cub Cadet with the Kawasaki engine.

38 hours on my Cub Cadet XT3 GSE (discontinued model) with a Kohler Command CH680 that I bought new in early June of this year. It mows about 3 acres/week.
So far it has had two OCI’s of Kohler 10W-40 syn blend both provided by the Cub dealer. Next OCI will probably be from my stash of RP 10W-40 SL with Synerlec and a Wix 51348 filter. Transaxle oil was changed at 30 hrs to flush out any break-in metal, and a magnetic drain plug added.
