Foreword
This manual is written for an experienced technician. Essential tools required in performing
certain service work are identified in this manual and are recommended for use.
Live with safety: Read the safety messages in the introduction of this manual and the cautions
presented throughout the text of the manual.
T81389-UN:
This is the safety-alert symbol. When you see this symbol on the machine or in this manual, be
alert to the potential for personal injury.
Technical manuals are divided in two parts: repair and operation and tests. Repair sections tell
how to repair the components. Operation and tests sections help you identify the majority of
routine failures quickly.
Information is organized in groups for the various components requiring service instruction. At
the beginning of each group are summary listings of all applicable essential tools, service
equipment and tools, other materials needed to do the job, service parts kits, specifications,
wear tolerances, and torque values.
Technical Manuals are concise guides for specific machines. They are on-the-job guides
containing only the vital information needed for diagnosis, analysis, testing, and repair.
Fundamental service information is available from other sources covering basic theory of
operation, fundamentals of troubleshooting, general maintenance, and basic type of failures and
their causes.

The John Deere delivery receipt, when properly filled out and signed by the dealer and
customer, verifies predelivery and delivery services were satisfactorily performed. When
delivering the tractor, give the customer his copy of the delivery receipt and operators manual.
Be sure to explain their purposes to him.
Because of the shipping factors involved, plus extra finishing touches necessary to promote
customer satisfaction, there are certain predelivery services that must be performed by the
dealer. These services are listed in the first of two sections on the predelivery form which is
attached to the tractor. The second section is a list of factory inspections that must be verified
by the dealer.
Fill the form out completely and sign it. Send a copy to the factory and file the original with the
shop order for the job. This will certify the proper delivery service has been completed.
Perform all services listed and check each job off as it is completed.

Direct exposure to hazardous chemicals can cause serious injury. Potentially hazardous
chemicals used with John Deere equipment include such items as lubricants, coolants, paints,
and adhesives.
A Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) provides specific details on chemical products: physical
and health hazards, safety procedures, and emergency response techniques.
Check the MSDS before you start any job using a hazardous chemical. That way you will know
exactly what the risks are and how to do the job safely. Then follow procedures and
recommended equipment.
(See your John Deere dealer for MSDS’s on chemical products used with John Deere
equipment.)

Escaping fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin causing serious injury.
Avoid the hazard by relieving pressure before disconnecting hydraulic or other lines. Tighten all
connections before applying pressure.
Search for leaks with a piece of cardboard. Protect hands and body from high pressure fluids.
If an accident occurs, see a doctor immediately. Any fluid injected into the skin must be
surgically removed within a few hours or gangrene may result. Doctors unfamiliar with this type
of injury should reference a knowledgeable medical source. Such information is available from
Deere & Company Medical Department in Moline, Illinois, U.S.A.

Explosive separation of a tire and rim parts can cause serious injury or death.
Do not attempt to mount a tire unless you have the proper equipment and experience to perform
the job.
Always maintain the correct tire pressure. Do not inflate the tires above the recommended
pressure. Never weld or heat a wheel and tire assembly. The heat can cause an increase in air
pressure resulting in a tire explosion. Welding can structurally weaken or deform the wheel.
When inflating tires, use a clip-on chuck and extension hose long enough to allow you to stand
to one side and NOT in front of or over the tire assembly. Use a safety cage if available.
Check wheels for low pressure, cuts, bubbles, damaged rims or missing lug bolts and nuts.

Avoid breathing dust that may be generated when handling components containing asbestos
fibers. Inhaled asbestos fibers may cause lung cancer.
Components in products that may contain asbestos fibers are brake pads, brake band and
lining assemblies, clutch plates, and some gaskets. The asbestos used in these components is
usually found in a resin or sealed in some way. Normal handling is not hazardous as long as
airborne dust containing asbestos is not generated.
Avoid creating dust. Never use compressed air for cleaning. Avoid brushing or grinding material
containing asbestos. When servicing, wear an approved respirator. A special vacuum cleaner is
recommended to clean asbestos. If not available, apply a mist of oil or water on the material
containing asbestos.
Keep bystanders away from the area.

Improperly disposing of waste can threaten the environment and ecology. Potentially harmful
waste used with John Deere equipment include such items as oil, fuel, coolant, brake fluid,
filters, and batteries.
Use leakproof containers when draining fluids. Do not use food or beverage containers that may
mislead someone into drinking from them.
Do not pour waste onto the ground, down a drain, or into any water source.
Air conditioning refrigerants escaping into the air can damage the Earth’s atmosphere.
Government regulations may require a certified air conditioning service center to recover and
recycle used air conditioning refrigerants.
Inquire on the proper way to recycle or dispose of waste from your local environmental or
recycling center, or from your John Deere dealer.
