The best way to get the tension or belt off the pulls would be to use the belt tensioner my friend.

Excellent. Thank you, I really appreciate your comment. I need to get one of those tensioner hooks.

Good video. I hope your pulley stays tight without torquing that bolt or any blue thread locker. Nice to know the bearings are replaceable.

amazing how all this stuff just slides right off. Must be a practically new mower

The mower is six years old. My cut time ran down from 2 hours to 45 minutes a session. My yearly hour runs are only 12-14 hours a year. Big change from a 42" lawn tractor to a 52" zero turn.

Where did you get those white cotton gloves 🧤

Thank you for asking. I purchased them on Amazon. They are sold as coin and jewelry handling gloves. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B086PCDYLX/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Exactly. Spindles are cheap enough now, to just replace. The days of bearing replacement are over.

Idk about that. I just had to replace one yesterday, cost me $222 for a brand new one. Only 110 hours on the machine

@@scotthomberg141 Priced OEM on my 48" HD and I think it was 286.00. I'm trying the made in China for 88.00. Might buy the bearings and rebuild the OEM.

I had to use a puller attached to those holes to get the pulley off

Thank you. Those pulleys are tough to remove.

Good Video - Note there were no grease fittings on the spindles. Why not? Does John Deere have grease fittings on its spindles ?

@A_Renaissance_Man Жыл бұрын

Thank you for asking. There are sealed bearings on these high end residentual zero turn mowers and they should last between 400-600 in-use hours. John Deere, the last one I had I bought in the mid 90's from the dealer and it had grease fittings but the spindles did not last and I am sure that I changed out at least four of them over the years.
