My Aunt and Uncle hired me to mow their yard and sometimes I need to travel across a paved road. How do I raise the mower deck so the Wheels on the deck don’t get chewed up when going across the road ? My Aunt & Uncle can’t find the Manual for this mower deck. I have the Operator’s Manual for the John Deere 4115 Tractor but, there is no info on raising / lowering the deck

I have a John Deere 1070 with a slip in the clutch. The dealer says I need to replace the clutch, and gave me a high priced quote. I was hoping there might be something I could try to fix it myself, or how big of a job it would be to replace it myself. I am mechanically inclined and found out I can buy the parts for a quarter of what they want to do it for.

John Deere STX 38 tractor will run and cut for few minutes and then just stops, cannot start it again until it cools off completely which could be couple hours and then repeats the same cycle. Any ideas what could be wrong? Any input would be appreciated!

we just bought a new holland T8040 300hp brand new and we put it to the test next to a 315hp john deere (cant remember the model). we put them both in empty paddocks and both had exactly the same size rotary hoes on them, my tractor pulls better at a deeper depth than the john deere does. why is this? is it because nothing beats a new holland?
