Mike, Thanks Love the feed Back Steve

Good Idea the oil weight is 30 SAE I will have to look for the filter WIX Filters 51394 2.98 In. Oil Filter amzn.to/3A2yppf

There is a button on the transmission you can lift, you may need to rock it a little while doing this. You must push it back down to drive it again Please subscribe and use Amazon links to shop Steve

Under the front your clutch switch, under seat switch, blade start switch, check all the fuses first. The clutch and seat switch are easy to bypass for testing and you can use a meter to test switch functions. BE SAFE is number 1 on this work

Most likely there is a piece of it that broke off turn it by hand and look at it. Main deck belt amzn.to/3MfkykU The smaller belt amzn.to/3g2ER9f Steve

check the fuses in front of the engine, this happened when my blade clutch failed, the other issue could be the switch, I have video on the switch change

Seat switch

I do not know the size but this is the one I bought www.ebay.com/itm/321519877986

M118755 is the belt number

two different brands of filters the one I used was from local auto parts and you can't get it on line the link is to one you can get on line

I do not know maybe John Deere, If you can't let me know I will see what I can find

@@mytwogoodhands2799 thank you very much for answering me be back my ex platoon sergeant had a power shop in Coral Michigan and he put it all back together and he has been trying to find the manual for it but I am lost without my baby deer

@@mikebetts3573 found one on eBay I do not know the seller www.ebay.com/itm/403836307946?var=0&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&campid=5338590836&toolid=10044&customid=b1c4b2bbcf0a1ba819bfd195f4fba3be

No I have not I have over 500 hours on them and keep them greased

THe engine and transmission oil is the same oil on these units.

@@mytwogoodhands2799 Do you have FaceBook or instagram?

@@goranzgela6171 just you tube

@@mytwogoodhands2799 sorry to bother you, but you are a doctor for John deere. Where i can finde to buy stickers kit for f525, some link page. I can't find anywhere for f525

The drive pulley only drives the deck, the transmission is part of the engine power pack so no pully to change, if will not mow nice if you go faster.

If oil is on drive pully it slips and drives slower. When that belt is wrong size and stretched it slips and drives slower.

@@regularguyfixes3142 the F525 has an engine / trans power unit no belts to drive the speed

@@mytwogoodhands2799 got cha. Believe they are hydraulic pumps?

@@regularguyfixes3142 could be I just know there is no drive belt

Mine to it is the case on mine I tighten the bolts on the underside ad slowed the leak but still a little leak

Theres a split gasket that goes bad between the hydro unit & the motor! But the whole tractor mower almost has to be dismantle to get the gasket replaced! They have up graded up the new gasket I havent had any leaks since I had it replaced!

@@terryoslund422 maybe a winter project! Did you do the work?

@@mytwogoodhands2799I’m selling it now, because the leak has gotten worse when I have to add oil while mowing, last time I just mowed with it, it really got bad and my engine was overheating and squeaking and smoking so I shut it off. Oil was just gushing out of it somewhere. So me and my dad towed it up to the shop. A few days later we started it, it ran, until after a minute it just instantly stopped. So we tried starting it, the starter couldn’t even turn the engine. So it’s locked up

@@jaxsonbelverudYolk21 Bummer and most likely not worth fixing it

I use standard oil 30 WT not synthetic. Don't know if that's a good idea or not.. Please subscribe to my channel Thanks Steve

You have an F525? what year?
