Thank you SO much! This old lady got her first JD, put together the special order steel cart that pulls behind it, and then it started but wouldn’t move. You fixed it for me. 😊👌🏻🤗
Thanks for your easy to follow instructions! I was able to start my lawnmower with no problem after watching this video!!
As soon as you mentioned the disengagement lever I had a flashback of pulling it out and pushing the mower back to the house - problem solved. Thanks!
Glad I could help!
On the older one’s: the transmission belt is guided through 2 pulley’s in the middle to the front. One is plastic. This one got hot, got ripped and rips the belt slowly. Took pulley off, sanded it temporary until replacing belt and pulley.
Thank you. Just got my JD 100 today and I was stomped, Thanks.
God Bless You for showing us the Transmission Disengage Lever!
My pedals give resistance and the more I push the louder the thing is making noise. I already replaced the belt. The fan is spinning on the transmission but it won't go forward or back
Well you just fixed my problem 👍 thank you!
Cool. Thanks for the 3 tips 👍
Tank youuu! You really helped me ❤
Good information, but Steve’s Small Engine had a fourth easy fix. If you’ve recently pulled a drive wheel you may have forgotten to replace the axle key. (3/16” square stock). The axles rotate independently. So that one is spinning, steeling all the power and the other one isn’t moving.
$3 part.
Thanks for all you do. Keep up the great videos.
Great information! Hope I don't need this any time soon, but good to know. Thanks!
I am glad it was helpful and I hope that nobody ever has to reference this. Unfortunately, from personal experience, I know this can be an issue.
Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for making this video
3 of the 4 motor mount bolts on mine were either sheered off or had come loose so there was too much slack on that drive belt and wouldn’t move. Not sure how common that is but I thought might help someone
Huge thanks for this video
First one thank you sooooo much!!!!
Thanks you are the only one have a simple explanation even the cave man can do this following what you show thank you again
Thank you 🎉
Thanks brother
Also, make sure the pin is in the slot in the axle when putting the rear tire back in or it will not move.
This is a good point too. I think this could spark a new video of things that are essential after doing repair work. What do you think?
@@WesternEquipment Yes I think it would be a good idea also.
hey need advice. While changing out my mower deck on my X320 I pushed the deck lift pedal down BUT now it will not come back up. I don't have my deck on at this time. I've change my deck before but never had this problem. Please advise. Thanks Brinley Hocutt
I have a John Deere D105A, I had disengaged the rod valve to push mower to different location in Garage, I push the rod back to original position. Still will not move after starting. Does this disengage rod become separated in transaxle and how to repair it?
thank you my friend! the user manual says nothing about engaging the transmission!
I am having the same exact problem you are and I hope you get this and you’re able to respond and let me know how you solve your problem. I had somebody helping me and they had me push down the clutch over and over while they were doing something underneath, but a little bit behind the clutch and it was slowly starting to engage, but it was about to downpour and he was on a motorcycle so he left and, I’m back to square one
I know that on cub cadets people complain alot about them gettin slow in reverse. I've found that grass and debris get built up on the inside of the frame where all the linkage pivots for the pedals and it prevents their movement.
This is interesting! I had not heard that. Thanks for the info!
You're awesome!
My Craftsman ys4500 barely moves. Used to go fast then it would barely climb an incline to today if finally just quit. Dropped deck and pulled drive belt. Gonna replace it first.
I have a x300 jd and I can not get spark with the key can start if we jump how do I get my lawn mower tractor to start. New ign switch
Just bought a s220 model, won't go forward or backwards , won't even go when I use the manual pull out on the back. What's wrong?
why did you not show the fluid level reservoir for the tractor style mower?
There is no filler hole or place to check it.
What about a fourth reason why it won't go...could it be the axel shaft key?
I mean it could be but that would mean they would have to be broken on both sides and I just don't think that is likely.
I am such an idiot. It was the first tip that you gave about pushing the lever in that way, it could drive.
1 more thing, the gear on the trans axel could be stripped, it happened to me.
My hydrostatic belt broke on my S100, just 4 hours in use. It was smoking, wouldn't move. Under warranty, they will fix it but why did it break with 4 hours.
Hi James , I have same mower, I will check mine as well since I’m off tomorrow, let me know what I found out please, thanks
@dqdanielfab Hi, I found out yesterday the travel belt guides on the front of the mower were bent so they adjusted them,causing the belt to break, seems someone didn't do their job at the factory, it's running good now. It was a $260 job but under warranty.
Seems like a good tractor, I have over an acre to cut,change the oil,filter after 4 hours to get the metal shavings out of the new engine. Say you like your S100,any troubles with it yet.
@@jameslomenzo1139 hi James, appreciate the reply sir, I have 1/2 an acre, no issues till I tried to move it , I’ll look at your recommendations !! Thank you !!
@dqdanielfab very welcome, my friend helped me carry it to the JD dealership last week, they wanted $90 to come pick it up and bring it back because I didn't take out the extended warranty im just 20 minutes from them, I do have the 2 year, or 120 hour warranty.
Maybe your JD wouldn't mower because of the pull out transmission rod in the back. Even though I had this trouble with the belt, overall I think it's going to be a good lawn mower. Yea changing the oil early in a new engine is overlook, the metal shavings from the factory, it's good to get them out.
That cover lid, next to cup holder didn't come with the S100, it's only $8, i told the guy at Lowes about it, he when over and took one off a S130 and put it on mine, that was nice of him doing that.
Guy at JD ask me did i run over some sticks, he told me a stick could break that hydrostatic belt but that wasn't the case. I found the front bumper at Lowes for $90 I didn't want to bust the plastic hood, I have alot of trees lol
Glad you're not having any issues. Take care.
No your not a idiot you just didn't know I got a little mine at a flea market no owner manual had a he'll of a time learning how to start it
What is the best scraper to use on your mower deck a plastic scraper or a metal scraper? Will a plastic scraper. Make your mower deck last longer.
I would advise using plastic if possible just to avoid any unnecessary damage to the bottom of your deck. But sometimes the gunk is too thick or hard so you may have to go with metal.
