How do I remove muffler from a John Deere F735 Diesel Front Mower Tractor with a couple factory frame weights under the hood? Weights are plate style that lie just inside of the factory rear bumper.

Could be the charge lube in the rear differential. It supplies oil to main Hydraulic pump up front on engine. The charge pump drive can strip and not turn pump. To remove pump drive remove third link plate on rear frame, remove plug behind plate, pull out hex shaft, about 5 foot long and inspect.

Most older models had the adjustment on the alternator. loosen it and push it toward the engine. remove & replace the belt. Pull the alternator away from the engine until the pulley cannot be turned by hand due to the tension. Tighten the adjustment bolt to secure it. Don't overtighten the belt.

It must have had one. Usually stamped in many areas,check the frame ,under the hood and under the dash. If ITT was a recent purchase it may be stolen.

Hello,

My name is Dane and I'll try to help you with your problem. I have given you the basic instructions here for mounting most john deere snow blades.

Here is a link to the parts diagram for the blade too.

You need to remove the mower deck from the machine, and you may have to remove the front bumper as well.

First, install the mounting brackets on the tractor. Align the holes in each mounting bracket with the holes in the tractor frame. Install using the kit that comes with the mounting bracket. Don't tighten this yet.

Next you should install the pivot support. Insert the pins on the right and left hitch plates into the notches on the mounting brackets. Install the pins and tighten the screws on those mounting brackets now.

Next you should Install the blade. Align the holes in the pivot support with the second holes from the end of the push channel assembly. Insert the channel pin and washer and secure with the spring locking pin.

Install the lift handle. Slide the lift handle rod into the end hole in the push channel assembly. Insert the lift link pin in the pivot support bracket into the lift handle rod. Add the washers and locking pin.

Now, Iistall the blade pivot rod. Either end of the blade pivot rod goes through the blade pivot shaft. The other end goes through the lift handle tube. Secure both ends with locking pins.

Lubricate the lift handle rods and pivot points.

Install the rear tire chains and wheel weights.

I hope I've helped. If you found this information useful, please leave feedback as deserved. Thanks! Dane

Hi,
I doubt that it is the fluid level...it's been a few years... but I seem to remember there being a couple at the front of the motor that ran the hydralic pump...I am wondering if your problem is not there...tthe hydralic pump sits under the fuel tank at the front of the tractor... check there to see if everything is working right there...of course it could be the pump its self that has gone bad...

If your talking about the mower blades, it can be a weak battery.

I have a 115 john deere tractor that runs but the engine will not run smooth I've put a new fuel cap on it a new pump and clean out the carb.
