Part of the John Deere Repair Manuals.
Arguments over what the 2130 actually calls for end with TM-4272, the 454-page John Deere 2130 Technical Manual PDF written for the dealer techs who serviced this tractor new. Wiring diagrams trace both the Bilux and sealed-beam lighting circuits, and hydraulic schematics map oil flow from the pumps through the rockshaft and selective control valves. Roughly a fifth of the book covers the hydraulic system alone, with pressure tests plus malfunction diagnosis for the Roto-Diesel injection pump, power train, and brakes. Set hydraulic pump stand-by pressure to 155 bar (2250 psi), and check the PTO clutch and brake at 9 to 9.5 bar before you blame the pump. Splitting a tractor with hay down is no time to hunt for a spec. Bookmarks in this scanned original PDF put your thumb on the clutch or rockshaft section in seconds; download it and keep it in the shop.
