It is My Son's mower. Dixon 4516K. (ZTR) I think he said it was a late 90's. (if a better number is needed tell me where to find it, Thx) Trying to get some info for him. The (Hydro gear?) transaxle was moving a little slow, and would get worse when warm. He changed fluids in both and now the bad one is worse. OK...
I seen in the posts that is is common to have a loose belt or a stripped key or spline shaft. Will look into that...
There is an OLD post that has links to the info I could use... They are obsolete links... Ugh... Does anyone have the purge info??
Do the Hydro Gear transaxles have a filter?? Or do I need a series number and where do I find it??
BTW is there a drain plug for the transaxle?? Or how do you drain it?? I gave him my big vac pump and he pulled the oil from the top.
Thanks for the help.
