Can I run my D100 with the backup safety switch removed? Because of an injury I cannot turn around and hold the switch in. Is there a way to adjust the seat safety switch so I can sit on the edge of seat and not have it turn off

Mine has white smoke and smells like something is burning for the first few moments of starting but clears and runs fine. It is burning some oil off but not sure where the leak is or why a less than 1 year old mower would be leaking.

If its not turning at all, the motor has probably seized. They are having a problem with the 19HP Briggs engine and its pretty common in the D110 actually. This is exactly what happened to mine. Good luck with it. Still get it checked though.

My mower blocks every time I use it. I empty it as soon as the hopper full light comes on,or before but it always blocks and spews out the cuttings. Is this a common problem?

I have a D100 manual ride on, yesterday it was going well and bang it stopped. The motor is still running however what ever gear I put it in its still not going. Smoke was starting to come from underneath. Is it my transmission?

Sounds like a broken drive belt - hence the smoke. Have a look underneath and see if it's still intact!

Take the mower to your nearest JD dealer for repair

Sounds to me like you blew out the belt that runs the blades. It's easy to replace yourself. It will be easier if you can remove the deck.
