Best paint job for the mower deck- Get it POWDER COATED! That’s tougher than any industrial paint!😊

@KillingItCountry 4 месяца назад

I know that you’re right, unfortunately, sometimes doesn’t make sense to invest any money into machines that are this old and rough. I just put her away on them and keep them running by doing the bare minimum. In my opinion, that’s all a John Deere deserves.

Good Job !!!! On my John Deere La120 I did the following Pull the deck Jack up the back just enough to get the tire off Add extra jack stands in the back to be safe Remove the left rear tire to give more access Now you can get at that cap Pop the cap off with a long thin flat head screw driver Use a syphon to suck out the fluid You might have to wiggle it around to get down deep I got about 2 quarts out Now you have your choice of what to refill it with A- same crap from John Deere B- 5W-50 Full synthetic oil C- 15W- 50Full synthetic oil - I don't run it in the winter so 15W-50 is fine C- Amsoil has a fully synthetic Hydrostatic fluid I think B or C is the cheaper choice Doing it this way makes it easy to change every season or every 200 hours. Some people install a drain plug in the bottom I didn't Even if you can get all the fluid out just replace exactly what you took out and run it for a month and repeat the process Like I said if you fish the hose around you can get it pretty deep Also changing the drive belt AKA the transmission belt and the two plastic idler pulleys in the center is very important Because a loose or worn belt or pulleys that are failing have a dircet impact on the transmission. Nothing beats Yankee ingenuity Nothing.

I’m sorry JD has sold junk and even plastic trans I have a lot of customers who hate JD now Top of the line is green, no true at all

@KillingItCountry Год назад

It’s about turning a profit, but for the longevity of the brand it also has to be about the customers lifetime experience with the machine. You have to make a robust unit that is easily maintained. JD’s “right to repair” problems didn’t help them either. This is why I support orange. 🙌 thanks for tuning in!

@mr9c1driver59 Год назад

Nice video. Only issue would be the John Deere 100 Series tractors don't have a K46 transmission in them, it's a T40. You have to step up to a 200 or 300 series to get the heavier duty K46. This information is straight off their web site.

@KillingItCountry Год назад

I’m still finding lots of online resources pointing to K46 as being the hydrostatic transmission in my LA140 and my L120. It doesn’t really matter. K46 and T40 are basically the same with only approximately 10% difference in torque. Thanks for stopping by.

Just to be nosey, what caused the "hum" at 16:50 in the video? Sped up it sounded like an old vacuum cleaner, so it was definitely a lower spped, low frequency sound.

Good catch Michael but I honestly have no idea what made that sound!!

@martinradtke5181 3 года назад

Good video....just 3 comments. 1) best to clean transmission before opening it up. 2) I would remove the rear wheels and liberally lube to prevent rusting to axle 3) FWIW I'd go ahead and get drain plugs from Tuff Torq. That way you can get a better oil drain. I prefer to do as much as I can as preventative maintenance. For high hour tractors it's a good time to replace belts with it all apart. Thanks for sharing.

@KillingItCountry 3 года назад

You’re not wrong. My machines are pretty grizzly and beat-up so I’m looking to make them last - but not going to get carried away. When I did this service to my L120, I tried to remove a rear wheel and it was already seized … so I left it alone. Thanks for the great comment Martin!

@stoneyswolf Год назад

How many hours on that oil? Nobody ever seems to mention the hours seems relevant.

@KillingItCountry Год назад

Both of my riding lawnmowers came to me used. I’m assuming the oil had never been changed at this point. I can’t remember exactly how many hours were on the machine, but I believe it was somewhere around 300.

@stoneyswolf Год назад

@@KillingItCountry I changed the oil on my old tractor with 237 hours and judging from the condition of it when I got it used it was most likely never changed. Black and shiny not good looking. I'm thinking my new mower that's actually new I'll do it at 25 hours then again at 50 then 100 if I ever put that many hours in it. Wondering if it'll actually make a difference or if it's just a waist of time and it'll self delete regardless. Every video on the subject the transmission is slipping or not going fast so it's at a point your on borrowed time if it works better nobody does it to prevent issues in the future.

@KillingItCountry Год назад

It has to help. That shine in your oil is contaminants! Good for you for the preventative maintenance!

So the best thing to do when you buy a k46 transmission or mower with that one on it is to first take out the transmission 10w30 motor oil when it's still brand new and put in the 20w50 synthetic hydrostatic zero turn transmission fluid

@KillingItCountry 3 года назад

I did a fare bit of my own research as well when I decided on oil type and grade. I'm sure that simply changing the oil annually will make the transmission last longer than the rest of the tractor.

@Mike-su8si 3 года назад

Very nice. Hugh help. You method of removing fan, different from another video showing retaining bolt removal. The bolt on mine was already loose - so I went that way. Totally loved your effort. I am ready to drain tank. Getting it disassembled was quite doable. And my fins were SO FNG BAD. UGLY in there. I am doing the belt as well.

so my 130 isn't movin rite..the longer runs worse it gets..whines loudly..wont pull banks anymore. do u think this wld help?

@KillingItCountry 3 года назад

I believe that as your HST gets hot, you’re loosing power because the oil thins-out and leaks back through the pump. I have read that some have been able to improve performance and extend the life of their HST with an oil change. In order to maximize cooling, it is vitally important that you run the machine at full RPM’s to make the most of the belt-driven cooling fan above the HST and clean any debris off the top of the HST while you have it out. All the best, feel free to follow up with additional comments if I can help further.

@kartboarder22g17 5 месяцев назад

Yea no pressure washing after you change rhe oil, do that before and honestly i wouldn't pressure wash it, use garden hose pressure and a degreaser instead and do it before the drain

@KillingItCountry 5 месяцев назад

Awesome tip! Thanks for watching!!

@lazetar4535 3 года назад

In "Free Mode" maybe want to try manually turning the wheels to rotate the tranny gearings to move fluid into possible trapped air pockets or fluid level will be lower than expected later on...fluid will not be "topped off" properly.

@KillingItCountry 3 года назад

I did spin it off-camera a few times. Not sure it was adequate though because the level didn’t drop.

They look so good when they’re new. I don’t know for sure but I’d bet they haven’t changed their paint process to address this issue. You may be back for tips on how to refresh your mower deck in a few years 😊. Until then, enjoy your new mower and thanks for the comment Christo!

Unfortunately I don’t. I filled it up until it was full and then I spun the wheels forward and reverse in order to circulate the fluid around the hydrostatic transmission and then I topped it up maybe a little bit and then I was off to the races!! Good luck!

Thank you so much for doing this video! Adding the lighting during the disassembly was very helpful. I just finished replacing my drive/transmission belt and noticed the transmission was caked in dirt. Like 3/16" thick. Pretty sure from the presence of oil. I don't know if I have a leak or maybe oil vented out thru the vent. When I was replacing the drive/transmission belt I did find a broken V pulley. So I replaced both pulleys. I plan on pulling the transmission, cleaning it and changing the fluid. I haven't noticed any issues with the transmission when using the mower. My tractor is a John Deere L111 with 390 hours on it. Bought new in 2006. Thanks again Killing it Country. 🤠

@KillingItCountry Год назад

Great idea to pull the unit out and clean it up. If you have access to a pressure washer - that’s a great way to remove the buildup. It really should be clean to shed heat during operation - it’s like a big heat-sink. Thanks for watching!!

So I’ve been looking at lots of videos the last few days and this has got to be the easiest transmission service so far.

I read on that transmission website when they sell those new they're filled with 10w30 motor oil not transmission fluid I sucked mine out and put the right fluid in no motor oil. It's the same transaxle transmission as what's on my L110 its supposed to have 20w50 synthetic hydrostatic zero turn transmission fluid in it. I guess you could have used 10w30 motor oil what the company uses when they sell those new I know they do that hoping they'll break on the people and that's how john deere keeps making money
