Good afternoon: I have forgotten what all I need to do to adjust and LUBE the variator on my model 212. Do I need to remove the fender pan for this job? (I already have the mower deck removed.) I will be applying a Graphite lube.
I read somewhere about a slot in frame near right rear wheel that will let me hold the idler pulley up with a screwdriver to keep the long secondary drive belt slack. Should I remove the right rear wheel for this step?
I am working on a concrete floor, pretty nice, but no air conditioning. I have a large roll-around floor jack, so lifting one end of the the Deere should be no problem.
BTW, this tractor has been used regularly to cut grass, so things are not rusty or falling apart.
Any experienced folks with advice, please let me know. Thanks much!!
