Part of the John Deere Repair Manuals.
Gasoline and diesel builds of the John Deere 1000 and 1010 crawler tractor split at the engine, and this 448-page John Deere 1000, 1010 service manual PDF (John Deere SM2034) settles which procedure belongs to your machine. Wiring diagrams trace the diesel lighting and starting circuits and the gasoline ignition side terminal by terminal. The Hydraulic Direction Reverser takes one of the longest chapters in the book, schematics included, while the Series 10 Winch, final drives, steering clutches and brakes, and the 3-Point Hitch and drawbar each carry their own teardown sequences and trouble shooting charts. Set steering lever free travel at 7/8 to 1 inch at the starter switch, and check the clutch pressure spring at 141 to 157 pounds at a height of 1-11/16 inches. Guessing costs you a second teardown, or a reverser bought twice. Bookmarked and text-searchable, it prints clean, so the pages can ride out to the field and take grease.

John Deere 1010, 1000 Common Problems This Manual Covers
John Deere 1010 crawler drifts left when driving straight, steering clutch won't release
Check steering lever free travel before you pull anything apart. Measure at the starter switch level: each lever needs 7/8 to 1 inch, per page 397. If the left lever runs short, adjust it to match, then work both pedals loose with penetrating oil and fresh grease.
Manual Section: Final Drives, Steering Clutch, and Brakes p. 397Dozer blade will not lift or drifts down slowly with the lever held back
Check reservoir level cold, then cycle the lever full stroke and watch for a lazy drop. Bring a 1010 diesel to its 2650 rpm fast idle listed on page 12 and listen at the pump inlet. Clean the suction screen, replace softened hose, and trace the circuit on the schematic on page 408.
Manual Section: Hydraulic System p. 399Runs hot and the direction reverser gets warm after ten minutes of light work
Drain the reverser and change the oil filter first, torquing the filter cover hardware to 35 ft-lbs on page 323. Then run the relief valve pre-test: pressure should come up to 100 psi (page 291). Low or sluggish pressure means worn pump or a stuck valve. Fix it in the shop, not in the field.
Manual Section: Hydraulic Direction Reverser p. 291Engine loses power under load, stumbles and smokes when the governor opens up
Pull the air cleaner and service it before you chase fuel. On a gasoline tractor, gap plugs to .025 inch per page 35, then set slow idle at 600 rpm and fast idle at 2700 rpm. Check the fuel strainer and return line for restriction before touching the carburetor.
Manual Section: Engine Tune-Up and Tractor Adjustment p. 35Clutch slips under load and pedal feels soft pulling a loaded drawbar
Measure pedal free travel and inspect the pressure springs while the clutch is out. Each spring should test 141 to 157 pounds at a height of 1-11/16 inches, per page 236. Replace any weak spring as a set, check the facings for oil, and adjust the linkage before harvest.
Manual Section: Engine Clutch p. 236Frequently Asked Questions
How do you adjust the clutch on a John Deere 1010?
To adjust the clutch pedal free travel, loosen the jam nut on the control lever set screw in front of the pedal. Measure the free travel at the pedal pad and screw the set screw in or out until 1-3/8 inches of free travel is obtained. Tighten the jam nut on the set screw and recheck the travel. p. 47
What is the torque specification for the cylinder head bolts on a John Deere 1010?
The cylinder head bolts should be torqued to 150 ft-lbs. This should be done in the specific sequence shown in the manual for either the gasoline or diesel engine. p. 62
What is the correct engine oil pressure for the John Deere 1010?
The engine oil pressure should be between 35 and 50 pounds per square inch (psi) when the engine is running at operating speed. p. 6
What is the correct valve clearance for the gasoline engine on a John Deere 1010?
When the engine is cold, the intake valves should be set to .012-inch and the exhaust valves should be set to .018-inch. p. 63
What is the correct spark plug gap for the gasoline engine in a John Deere 1010, 1000 crawler tractor?
The spark plug electrode gap should be set to .025 inch. p. 35
