Replacing flywheel fan on john deere tractor. Once replaced, I start it and all of the fan blades break because the are hitting the screen. How do you create a gap between the blades and the screen?

It is self centering. The "Plastic" fan should have 2 nubs that align into slots/holes on flywheel. The fan must be rotated so that it seats in the flywheel indentations. Then the flywheel bolt and washer anchor the fan in the position required as to not damage fan,

Flywheel removing

the simplest way to remove a flywheel is to use an impact gun. To re-tension the flywheel place a gear box bolt in a hole and use a large flat bladed screw driver in the teeth and under the bolt against the turn of the bolt. Some flywheels seem stuck on as they are positioned on a dowel so a hit on the front side will jar them loose.

How can I remove a leaf caught in the fan/cabin ventilation system in the dashboard?

the best way is to lower the blower motor and remove, the motor is under the dash on the pass/side theres three bolts that hold it in, remove the connection then the screw bolts and down it goes, it no hard to do it will take you maybe 1/2 hour, there may be a cover covering the motor also just remove that also if theres one. hope this helps.heres a picture of it i pointed out the three screw locations and just pull rubber hose off.2b96847.jpg

Casablanca stealth fan light scrapes against blade surround

There are two probable causes. One, the light housing has been pushed/bent up into the rotating assembly, which is possible if the fan were ever removed from the ceiling and sat on the glass.

If it has never been removed however, the most likely cause is that the Allen Set screw on the flywheel has loosened allowing the flywheel to slip down the motor shaft. It's a purely mechanical problem and if memory serves, to get to the flywheel, you remove the light pan and it's right there. Find the set screw, loosen it enough so that the flywheel is easy to move up and down and raise it up a bit and then cinch it down tight. It's a fairly common problem and for the life of me I cannot understand why Casablanca would not use loctite on that set screw. I mean you pay $500+ for a fan, it should outlast you, right?

How do you change the fan belt on a john deere mower? The model is X740.

You must remove drive shaft,once that is done you can remove bolts holding pulley on the flywheel and then slide belt around fan.The pulley will become two halves once you remove bolts securing it to flywheel,When putting back together you must rotate flywheel to help alignment of belt in v-groove.
