John Deere 670 Mid-Mount Mower Removal

[DoItMyself]

Hello,
I picked up a 1996 John Deere 670 (850 hours, loader and mid-mount mower). What's the procedure for removing the mid-mount mower for service? I picked up a service and operators manual but there wasn't any information in either.

Thanks!

1st, lower the deck wheels and turn the rear two 90 deg.
-- drop the deck to the ground..
-- disconnect rear lifting straps
-- disconnect front bail
-- raise rear lifting straps out of the way
-- roll the deck out...

Hope this helps, and :welcome: to TBN

Try this .pdf for info on the 60" and the 72".. mower decks.
