    JD 185 hydraulic release

    Thank you. Mine is between my legs. I thought that was the lever but it won't move so I'm going to have to get under the tractor and check it out.

    JD 185 hydraulic release

    I have an older John Deere 185 hydro. I can't find the release so I can push it. The Serial # is M00185B454279 185 Lawn Tractor W/46" RM One of the techs at my local dealer says he thinks there is a lever on the right side under the fender but he isn't sure. Any ideas???? Thanks in advance.
