Pawl 532175098

Removed the wheel and the gear assembly. Replaced the pawl and the spring. Reassembled and cut the grass.

Remove the entire assembly. Removed all old grease and dirt. Replaced all three parts. Reassembled without any lubricants. Works great. Grease and dirt were part of the problem.

1. Remove hub cap and wheel nut
2. Remove wheel
3. Remove e clip on drive gear
4. Remove drive gear, pawl, spring and washers
5. Inspect for wear and dirt
6. Clean all parts with soap and water, scrub with a brush to remove old grease
7. Replace dust shroud if broken (this keeps dirt and debris out in the first place!)
8. Reassemble, greasing each moving part with black lithium grease and replacing the old springs for new ones (you may have to flip the springs so that they cross over opposite of the way they came)
9. Replace the e clip with a new one (these can be bent out of shape when removing and fall off later)
10. Use silicone grease on the wheel shaft and put on the wheel
11. Test to make sure the drive is working properly before putting the hub cap back on
12. Done! Your self propel should work properly after this refresh.
