Part of the John Deere Repair Manuals.
This is the John Deere technical manual covering the X700 series garden tractors built from 2002 to 2006, including the X740 and diesel X748. It covers both engines these machines shipped with - the Kawasaki FD671D gas twin and the Yanmar 3TNV76 diesel - plus the hydrostatic transaxle, PTO clutch and brake, charging and starting circuits, steering, brakes, and attachment mounting. You get full wiring schematics for the ignition circuit, key switch, relays, and coils, along with fastener torque tables, fluid specs, and step-by-step diagnostics. These are pre-fault-code machines, so troubleshooting means a test light, a pressure gauge, and this book. If your tractor lost drive on a hill or cranks without firing, the answer is in here.
