Difficulty Level:
Easy
Total Repair Time:
1- 2 hours
Tools:
Nutdriver, Pliers, Screw drivers, Socket set, Wrench set
Parts Used:
581351301
NOTE: I include changing the drive cable and belt, cleaning the mower deck and changing engine oil in the process. Printing out the parts diagrams, and taking pictures when disassembling will help you if you forget how stuff goes together.
Supplies: Owners manual for reference, oil, fuel, shop rags, wood block for blade removal, li thium grease for anchor points of tension spring and cable ends. I greased the whole spring to ward off corrosion.

1) Remove spark plug.
2) Drain fuel and oil from engine. See owners manual
3) Tilt mower on its side, remove mower blade and parts that come off with it..
4) Remove belt cover, rear baffle. The two side screws for the baffle can be removed and replaced easier if the rear wheels are removed.
5) Clean under mower deck, rear baffle and belt cover as needed. Replace belt if worn or frayed.
6) Remove screws from control, remove upper end of drive control cable.
7) Remove lower end of drive control cable from mower housing using pliers to squeeze retainers under the housing, simultaneously pulling up.on the cable with pliers.
8) Install cable end in control, reassemble control onto handle.
9) Install cable end on transmission under mower housing.
10) Replace belt housing and rear baffle.
11) Use spring hook to install tension spring on transmission and baffle.
12) Replace blade and parts, torque bolt to specs.(35-40 ft.lbs, See owners manual).
12) Replace rear wheels.
13) ADD FRESH OIL TO THE ENGINE BEFORE STARTING!(see owners manual for specs)
14) Add fuel.
15 Replace spark plug wire.
16) Start mower, adjust drive cable per owners manual.
17) Happy mowing.

Replaced all idler pulleys, drive belt, drive cable and return spring. Found that it didnGÇÖt fix the problem. Ultimately it turned out to be a mfg defect; the drive cable was too long. Tied a knot in the cable near the engagement lever and now it works well.
