| Doing an oil change/fluid checks on my mom's D15 and noticed a lever on the top side of the transmission housing below the starter. Maybe a foot long or a little less with a hole at the end. Moves side to side a little but I didn't move it much because I didn't know what it does. What does this lever control? It isn't hooked to anything. |

The lever is to engage the belt pulley. Most of the D series tractors left the factory with the lever in place just to keep the housing sealed. If a tractor was ordered with the belt pulley option all that was needed is the rod from the lever to the dash and the pulley assy mounted on the side. ------------- Thanks & God Bless Dennis |

| Thanks for the answer. Tractor doesn't have a belt pulley, but looks like there is a block off plate on the side where one would be. |
