1. Removed the stationary idler that was froze up, would not turn because of bad bearing.
2, Immediately ordered new part from local source. Part came in and was wrong part.
3. Went to internet and first ordered needed part from _____ small engine repair. They did not have part in stock and advised me that they would let me know when part would ship.
called them back two days later and they advised they did not yet have part and that it
would be about three or four more days before they would receive the part to ship to me.
I cancelled the order with them and then ordered the correct part from you folks. Sweet
lady that took my order advise that you folks had one in stock and would ship out same
day. Part did ship same day as promised and I received part one day earlier than
promised. Great service, right part, good price. Thank you e replacement parts for your
your excellent service. signed, Frank S. Jr.

Stationary idler pulley bearing failed (melted) and mower deck drive belt came off.

Ralph from Lake Stevens, Washington

Difficulty Level:
Difficult
Total Repair Time:
More than 2 hours
Tools:
Pliers, Screw drivers, Socket set, Wrench (Adjustable), Wrench set
1. Separated mower deck from lawn tractor and cleaned both units thoroughly.
2. Removed and replaced tractor mounted idler pulleys, since bearings were noisy.
3. Disassembled mower deck - opted to overhaul blade tower supports (3) to clean and renew lubrication. RECOMMEND REPLACING THESE PARTS AS A UNIT, instead of overhaul.
4. Bearing failure had caused hole in deck-mounted pivot support bracket for belt tensioner to become elongated - opted to do nothing at this time.
5. Replacement pulley on pivot support was not sized to accept 7/16\" dia bolt!!! Hardened spacer washer hole was too small as well. Re purposed another bolt from the ordered parts, and added washers as necessary to allow pulley to track properly without binding against the tensioner arm.
6. Removed and replaced other pulleys and hardware (these replacement parts were identical to the removed ones).
7. Installed new belt as per diagram on belt slip cover.
8. Reinstalled mower deck underneath the lawn tractor.

Works great!
