All of those machines …😮 Just where do you begin?

[@GregoryFike]

Awesome videos - I have a John deere d105 with the welded on bracket vs the adjustable one that has two bolts you can loosen and tighten the belt. Have you figured out belt tension can be adjusted on this machine? Using jd belt exact part and the belt is very loose even when engaged - everything seems to be spinning freely with no pully or spindle issues. Have seen tons of this same problem but haven’t found a solution? Belts just won’t last as they get torn up from being too loose……LOVE the mower other than this!

[@lisagill9971]

As a 58 year old widowed woman, I would like to thank you for this video. With your detailed instructions, I was able to fix my John Deere L110 mower and replace the belt. Great job!!

[@trev1005]

I am a retired JDeere parts manager of some years and would like you to know that your video on repairing the L110 deck issues was so good that I have recommended it to all my contacts and especially those with apprentices dealing with these machines. Well done, keep up the good work, cheers from the Land Down Under!! Er that's Australia to those who don't know the song!

Purchased this to replace a guide pulley kzbin.infoUgkxO9seYZjlnuP5UvMkb7osQW3WxPVeSnPk on our John Deere x304 snowblower. As I stated in the title, it is just about perfect. The stock pulley has a spacer at the bottom. I used four washers to emulate said spacer, and it works perfectly now. Great product, and great price especially if compared to typical JD prices.

[@tedsobottka2750]

So I’ve owed a 42” John Deere for years and the way you replaced the drive belt is exactly the way I’ve done it for years. This is the perfect video on how to do it the right way. In many videos I’ve watched they seem to avoid removing the mower deck which takes all of 5 minutes. Sure makes this job a lot easier.

[@randybruns9939]

Your knowledge, skills, video guidance and instructions on how to repair all types of lawn and garden equipment is second to none! At the age of 65 years old I finally broke down and purchased a John Deere riding lawn mower. Your expertise and guidance on maintaining and repairing this equipment is invaluable and has/will save me significant time in doing both! Thank you for your outstanding information and guidance!

[@eridink]

You've given me the confidence to at least try to put back the belt that jumped off my L120 which I recently inherited. If it jumps off again, I'll look at the spindles and other parts and give those a go too. My aunt and uncle just had to pay $900 to get a broken belt and a bent spindle replaced! Hopefully, your video will help me avoid something that is definitely NOT in my budget at this time. Thanks for making this video. 🙏

[@etarheel1]

Your channel is just simply awesome! I’ve got to do this to my Husqvarna riding mower this weekend. Come to find out those sealed bearings from the factor in the spindle last a grand total of 74 hours. From your channel and others I’ve learned to to make it so that never happens again. At least not from a lack of grease. This thing basically exploded out the bottom. I heard a change in sound as I was mowing but because of the high grass I was in I thought it had just caked on and would clear in a turn or two. It was NOT grass, it was a part entirely engineered to fail! There are no zerk fittings, even if it had one the bearings are sealed! Shady af if you ask me. Anyway thank you so much for your awesome videos! Your three goals have been achieved! Deep gratitude from this guy

[@paparey1447]

You know what they say..."When you're good, you're good". Congratulations!

[@michaelhobaugh3302]

When you have the deck removed and apart it is also an excellent opportunity to service the arm that the clutching idler is on (clean & grease the bushing it pivots on and maybe even replace the pivot bushing if it shows any wear at all). As always a great job.

And 260.00 dollars in parts. From hear on out I've watched you and only you. Thank you so much. You are a life savor.

[@Genesis.1-1]

I love that you identify what tools, including sizes, you are using. The more of your videos I watch the more I like your presentation/explanation of each step. I changed my belt two years ago and it took me forever to get the new belt on correctly. You made it look so simple. I'm getting ready to replace my deck blades...😕 One thing I always check whenever I remove my deck is to make sure its level when I put it back on. It's a simple adjustment and only takes a couple minutes. I also grease the fittings.

[@outlet6989]

Since part of my deck is flat, from one side to the other, I use a long-level tool to ensure that the blades are level too. Same method to adjust the deck pitch.

Just bought a John Deere D105 today from the pawnshop. Got it home and was super excited to cut the grass only to soon find out that there was no belt on it. I called the pawnshop and spoke with the manager. She offered to give me my money back or pay for a belt. I chose to let them buy the belt. Because I did a quick KZbin search and found your video and saw how easy it is to replace the belt. I bought this mower for a really good deal. It has low hours and looks like new. I did get a 6 month warranty just in case though. When I put the belt on tomorrow I will check out all of the other deck parts now that I know what to look for. Thanks for sharing this great video.

[@lesliedickinson198]

A great video and all the information is given in easy to understand form so no mistakes, I run a small gardening business in the UK and there are many times you need to work on the machine in the field so this kind of knowledge is great for many. Keep up the good work

Well I am a almost 60-year-old lady who does not know anything about lawn mowers and I am having problems with my John Deere la100 series and I just watched your video and I am fully informed! What a great video I will subscribe immediately! Turns out what I thought (and my thought I mean assumed) was wrong with it isn't even what's wrong with it! This video was extremely helpful! I am ready to do this now! Thank you! So awesome to see a lady doing these videos! I got to see what else you have posted now!

[@_J.F_]

I have used many of the major brands over the years and depending on what type of job you need them for they all have their strong and weeks points. Personally I have found that what works best for my needs is a Stiga all wheel drive with the deck in front instead of under the machine, e.g. the Park Pro series. This allows you to easily get into corners, between bushes and shrubs etc. and allows for super easy access to the deck whether it is for cleaning, servicing, sharpening blades, or whatever. They are a bit pricey but have outlived anything else I have tried and should be worth the investment in the long run.

[@coolbyrne]

I was just looking for a video to show me how to change a belt and found your video. I feel so much more confident about doing it myself! And if I have other problems under my deck, after watching this video, I have no doubt I could handle those, too. Thanks!

Thank you sooo much for the detailed instructions, for belt replacement on 100 series John Deeres! I just had a failure on our D110, where the lining of the blade brake on the LHS actually wore down, went metal to metal with the pulley, and moved the brake bracket to the other side, making a little dent in the outer rim of the pulley in the process. Thanks once again, to the government, for mandating safety equipment on these decks, and creating more service and reliability issues.

Thanks for this video. I didn't know anything about how to replace the belt and I found your video and managed to replace the belt and blades on my own. You are a very good teacher and I really appreciate you explaining everything so well and simply so that I can follow! I was wondering... We now have a problem with the differentials. I realize it's a much bigger problem but found a guy who can fix it for us. But I need to figure out how to remove the transmission and take it to him for repair. Not really sure how to do that and how complicated it would be. Would you be able to make a video on this by any chance?

[@ChainsawPenny]

Thanks for keeping your hands out of the way. I recommend everyone photographs every deck they work on while they are correct. While the 100 series are straight forward on how the deck hangs, others are not and should be photographed as well. We have a family member that likes to "fix" things. Parts have ended up missing, things installed incorrectly. Figuring out what is missing and where it goes isn't as easy when you weren't the one to take it apart.

i"ve got an JD LA135 with the 42 inch deck. I figured that stuff out as I went when everything started howling and screaming. I learned a thing from Steves Small Engine Saloon about the grease zerks on those spindles. Basically they don't do anything because the bearings are sealed and there's no way to get the grease into the bearing, unless you follow his advice.

[@raystargazer]

As many others say, I appreciate the detail and completeness of your description. I probably would have sharpened the blades and pressure washed the deck, but that's me and I get it that they probably only wanted the problem fixed. thanks for not throwing the rope and shirt on the lawn.

How do you deal with the flaking-off paint (or powder coating) on the D/L series decks? Mine's flaking in pieces measured in inches. Strip and paint it all or just paint the spots? I long for the days of enameled metal on the Sixties-Seventies 110-and-up Deeres.

[@jazpanoz4996]

strip it & rust treat it both sides then,etch primer,couple coats & paint.....how many coats up to you.... Abit of work but worth it for yourself considering new decks are costly!

[@channell11]

I usually clean and touch up my deck with primer/paint every season as needed. If you can prevent the decks from rusting they'll last a while.

[@georgetancos2868]

This was the BEST example/demo ever- I followed it almost to a tee- except I was able to do all of it without removing the deck - Excellent work

[@davidvines6498]

When the deck belt gets stretched on the older John Deere’s, you can loosen the 2 bolts on the PTO cable bracket and slide the bracket back about 1/4 inch and tighten the belt. I know you cannot do it on some of the E models as the bracket is welded to the deck

[@glh541]

Excellent video with detailed instructions. I've watched other videos that weren't anywhere as good as this. I bought a JD E120 lawn tractor about 4 years ago and haven't had an issue with the deck. I also clean my tractor and mower deck after each use. I cringed when I saw how filthy the deck was in this video. When the time comes for deck maintenance, I will refer to this video. I've also converted the EZ oil change feature to the conventional oil and filter change which saves a ton when doing that maintenance.

When people ask me which mower to buy i tell them the simplicity line of lawn and garden tractors have a 40-50 year history of making mowing equipment. The welded mower decks are far better than the stamped out sheet metal varietys. But most people dont know because Simplicity is not sold in box stores. Repair folks rarely see them.

Hi there. I work on equipment here at my home in New Hampshire. I came across your videos recently, and really enjoy them. Thanks for sharing! ~Rick

I’m currently working on the deck mower on my ancient L100. Watching your video has saved me some serious frustration! Thank you. Liked and subscribed!

fyi. on some models of spindle replacements the spindle does not have a thread. instead they require self tapping screws. an impact driver on low in short bursts will do the job. start each screw slightly and when all lined up, tighten the screws in a left, right, up down fashion. then hand tighten the rest of the way until all are tight. this tutorial is great. thank you for it

Thank you for your video - I was able to get the deck out, blades checked, deck cleaned and belt back on and the mowing at my Mums finished. 😊

This was an entertaining and informative video on Deere E110 deck repairs. I greatly appreciate your assistance.
