Fennoral M809036 Transmission Cooling Fan/Drive Fan Blade 10 Blade for John Deer-e L110 L111 L118 L120 L130 Lawn Mowers

What It Is

This is an aftermarket 10-blade cooling/drive fan for the transmission on select John Deere lawn tractors. It mounts on the engine or transmission shaft to pull air over the hydrostatic drive system, preventing overheating during mowing.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Exact models: John Deere L110, L111, L118, L120, L130 (and some X-series with same Tuff Torq K46 or similar transmissions).
• Measure before ordering: the fan blade diameter must match your original (typically ~7.5 inches). Check blade count (10) and center hole size (usually 1 inch).
• OEM cross-reference: replaces John Deere part M809036, AM109695, AM119371. Aftermarket, so verify your OEM number.
• Not for: zero-turn mowers, walk-behinds, or older Deere models with different transmission fans (e.g., L100 series with 8-blade fans).
• Check clearance: ensure the fan won’t hit the frame, belt, or deck when installed—especially on lifted or modified mowers.

Key Things to Know

• Installation difficulty: moderate. Requires removing the mower deck and possibly the belt/pulley to access the fan. No special tools beyond a socket set and a puller if the old fan is stuck.
• Plastic vs. metal: this is a durable plastic fan—lighter than OEM metal, but less likely to dent. Replace if cracked or missing blades; a broken fan will cause transmission overheating and failure.
• Common gotcha: the fan may be held on by a clip or bolt. If it’s a press-fit, you’ll need a puller to remove the old one. Do not hammer the new one on—use a press or gentle tapping with a block.
• Quality: 4.8 stars from 82 reviews suggests consistent fit and good longevity. No known issues with warping or imbalance.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you have a compatible John Deere L-series with a broken or missing transmission fan. At $10.15, it’s a cheap fix that prevents expensive hydrostatic drive damage. Skip it if your fan is intact, or if you need an exact OEM match for warranty/insurance reasons.
