Product Information
Full details
The STIGA Hydrostatic Fan (118870129/0) is an essential maintenance component designed specifically for owners of STIGA lawn tractors who need to restore or maintain their transmission cooling system. Its primary benefit is preventing hydrostatic transmission overheating, which extends the operational lifespan of the drive system, though users should be prepared for the mechanical effort required to access the underside of the tractor for installation.

FAQs
How do I know if my fan is broken?
Visually inspect the fan while the engine is off. Look for missing blades, large cracks, or any wobble when manually turning it.
Is this a universal fan?
No, this fan is specific to certain STIGA models. Always check your parts manual for the MPN 118870129/0.
Can I replace the fan without removing the transmission?
Yes, on most STIGA models, the fan can be accessed and replaced by reaching under the tractor or removing the mower deck, without needing to dismantle the transmission.
What happens if I operate the tractor without the fan?
The hydrostatic transmission will likely overheat quickly, leading to loss of drive power and potential internal damage to the transmission unit.
How often should I clean the fan area?
It is good practice to clear away grass and debris from the cooling area every few times you mow, especially if you are working in dry or dusty conditions.
Troubleshooting
Mower loses power after running for a while
Inspect the hydrostatic fan for broken blades or severe debris buildup causing the transmission to overheat.
Fan is spinning but air flow is weak
Check that the fan is properly secured to the shaft and that there are no obstructions in the transmission cooling intake.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the 118870129/0 requires safety-conscious preparation. Always ensure the engine is off, the spark plug wire is disconnected, and the mower is safely lifted on a stable jack or ramp before working underneath. Compatibility is limited to specific STIGA lawn tractors; always verify your machine's model and serial number against the MPN 118870129/0 before purchase. For maintenance, periodically inspect the fan blades for grass clippings, mud, or twig blockages that could prevent the fan from spinning freely, as buildup can lead to premature fan failure or transmission damage.
