just what I needed for an old Ariens Emperor riding mower (1975 )
Parts are getting scarce for this great machine. This is just about the only thing that has worn out on it and I bought 2 so I'll have them in the future. This mower should still be here when I'm long gone now! yea e replacement parts

Replacing Friction Wheel on 24 year old Ariens ST 1032
1. Tip blower forward .
2. Remove 4 bolts from bottom inspection plate, and remove.
3. Remove 5 bolts from Friction Wheel - Hold shaft with end wrench or adjustable wrench to keep it from turning.
4. Slip friction wheel out - Move shift lever to allow room to remove friction wheel. Take note as to which direction the

5. Attach new friction wheel- put in all bolts hand tight prior to tightening with wrench so as not to warp the wheel. Make certain there is no grease or gunk on the friction wheel or aluminum friction plate. I used carburetor cleaner to clean both. Friction plate should be perfectly smooth and without grooves worn into it.
6. Replace inspection plate.
7. Adjust shift linkage per owner\'s manual as old wheel was likely worn.
First tilt snow blower up that the bottom is facing out. Remove the wheels & remove cover. Next take a picture if you can of the inside so can see how it is put together. Next take a look at the friction wheel to see if that is the problem the cover on the wheel is a hard rubber cover look to see if all or part of it is missing. If wheel

There are two clips on the shaft remove them first so you can slide it off next on the left side of blower remove the shaft holder then on the right side. Now look at the tooth gear on the right start to remove shaft by pulling it out on the left there is a small gear on the shaft on the right that will slide off be careful not to loose it take it off put in your parts tray. Now slide shaft out hold on to the friction wheel there are two big washers remember where they go slide off the friction wheel from the holder. Next you will have to remove the bearing from the old wheel three bolts hold it on. If you have a new wheel or need to order it get from (ereplacement parts). If you have wheel or when you get it in just do the reverse on the install use a little grease on gears & wd40 the shaft bearings ends. Not a hard job & take you time total job time should be no more then 30 min. The part is $26.00. You save time & lot of labor money by doing it yourself. Thanks

Spring/cable for remote wheel engage/disengage broke and wrapped around sliding dog clutch assembly. The spring then scrapped off most of the rubber on the friction wheel.
Repair was difficult but do-able. Replacing the friction wheel is much easier if you can remove the wheel drive axle. Despite my best efforts I could not remove the right wheel. This makes for very little room. I was able to skew the hex shaft for the friction wheel enough to remove it and replace it with the new one. The springs and cabl
