I just got a hand me down older John Deere 175 riding mower. All the attachments were off of it and I am trying to figure out how to attach the mower deck. Does anyone know where to find exploded views or manuals for older John Deere mowers online? I've almost got it on, but cant figure out how to attach a couple of the suspension bar / leveler things.
I don't really want to buy one, cause the father in law says he has it, just has not found it yet.
Got it attached today, but it vibrates quie a bit when mowing...Do I ned to tighten the belt or something?

If its sat for a while, before running it you shouldve gone over it, tune up, oil change, fuel filter - so you wont have to do this all later. With the deck vibration, it sounds like somethings either loose or sticking - did you check the deck out before putting it on? Like if the spindles turned freely, no blades were bent, ect. I hate to say this , but remove the deck and check it over- one bad bering will cause a vibration.

This is quite awesome! Mighty Deere and some enormous mowers hanging on it for mowing wide open spaces. These spaces were not quite so wide, but ...

I have a tractor mower and the serial number is under the seat, I just lift it forward, got rid of the dirt and therew as the number! Hopefully yours is the same, try it.

Model: STX38 Gear

I have a carburator that floods out and releases gas through the exaust system. What could be the problem?

sounds like the float might be stuck in the open position allowing the motor to flood. I would also check the condition of the spark plug it also might be in bad shape after the flooding. i would replace it. but it sounds like the float in stuck open.

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

On the smaller tractors all you have to do is push or pull the top lever on the right side of the steering wheel. If it seems as the deck doesn't go low enough you can re-position the pins in the wheels, so that they do not touch the ground, when the deck is in the "up" position (just take the pins out & place them into another hole father down). If the deck isn't moving up or down, then re-check the manuel. It might not be hooked-up right. The Back wheels are only there for uneven terrain. The deck is supposed to "float" even while down. When all else fails call the 1-800 they give you, or go to the local dealer & let them show you.
Good Luck!!

Deck is partially attached to the tractor, but the left side is much lower than the right side. Also, the deck does not seem to be attached to the height adjuster.
