JOHN DEERE MODEL R. The shaft that drives the fan and the generator that comes out of the bottom of the motor has about a 1/2inch of endplay foward toward the radiator when it comes foward the gears form the shaft doesn't mesh with gears in the motor so when the tractor is running the fan dosen't turn. When the tractor is not running you can push the shaft back in and the gears will mesh up. If you turn it by hand and put some preasure on it it trys to come back out foward. WHAT KEEPS THE SHAFT FROM COMMING FORWARD. THANKS FOR ANY HELP DAVID NORTH CAROLINA

Does the fan shaft housing have a grease zerk near the bearing location? I was reading my I&T manual and it said some early R's didn't have the grease zerk and the housing needed to be drilled and tapped for one.

Check the bearing in the front (back of the fan shaft in the crankcase)... Ours came apart.. and the gear dropped down.. and the gears didn't mesh... had to dig the bearing parts out of the bottom of the crank case... JDGnut

David, it sounds like you have a worn fan shaft bearing [probably rear] or the snap ring has come loose on the rear of the fan shaft [the one that holds the gear on]. You will be lucky if you haven't torn the rear fan gear up.....
