- Complete instructions to replace pulleys, belt and cable.
Our 4 year old Husqvarna mower needed some work. The cable that activates the wheels broke. When we started working on it we discovered that the pulleys and the belt were in need of repair as well. We have used this mower on our farm for 4 years and it’s back in business.
Please check the part description. I have updated the links as parts supplies change. But I can’t guarantee the parts have not changed

![How To Replace Self Propelled Drive Cable on Husqvarna Push Lawnmower [Self Propelled Not Working]](/img/1.gif)
Lightweight is good and what did I use it for it’s a lawnmower ruclips.net/user/postUgkxTPN04aT-Qdjr_KS3ql7ng8wnU3wwsCqk also recommend Yes it is lightweight so hence not as robust as our old one. But if you take care it does the job really well.
Great video!!!! For the life of me I couldn't figure out how the spring attached when I took my mower apart. The spring just fell out not being able to see what it was hooked too Thanks again!!!
Thanks for the succinct instructions. I found them very helpful when replacing the drive cable.
This video was perfect. You’re a fantastic teacher and you made this easy. Thank you so much.
Well I had to watch your video about 20 times but I was able to repair my self propel cable!!!! Thanks for the help!!!!!
Thank you so much. Exactly the model number and level of detail needed. You are a man of great courage!
I am glad it helped
I did it! I changed the blade and put the belt back on (it was hanging off the pulley). The mower was self-propelling great when I first bought it and noticed it was getting harder to push. I searched youtube for a detailed video and I found yours. Thank you!
Hey, that’s awesome. Glad you got it back in business.
Yours is the best tutorial by far that I could find to repair my Husqvarna awd mower. Thanks so much for taking the time to share it!!
Thank you. I’m glad it helped.
I've got the very same, maybe a little newer but the Husqvarna and Honda combo, self-propelled.
I have this mower. Needs this done. I already had it disassembled. Then when I was ordering parts, there were options for belt sizes. I couldnt source out the part number I needed. So I came here. I had to slow down frame rate to 0.25 and zoom in. But the belt clearly had the part number. Finally.
Thank you so much for making this video with specific instructions. I was able to change out the cable without paying a repairman that has already done it once this season!
That’s awesome. I’m glad it helped.
This was exactly what I needed and the perfect level of detail. Thank you!
Thank you. I am glad that it helped.
My pulleys were seized up as well. 2 of them I was able to spray with JB Blaster and they freed up pretty easily and turn fine. The third took some soaking and still had to run a plastic punch thru the center, put it in a vice and turn the pulley to free it up. Then put the pulley in the vice and put a cordless drill onto the plastic punch and ran the drill both ways until it was fully freed up. Your video was awesome as well as your beautiful property!
When the seals wear they allow dirt and water in. Time to replace them.
Excellent video. Having a trailer to work off of is a huge advantage. Took me two hours from a work bench.
But you got it done.
thanks a lot great video i took mine apart a few days ago and haven't been able to finish it due to bad weather this video is very detailed
Glad to help.
Awesome going to look mine over tomorrow and see what's failed on the drive. Like yours mine is about 4-5 years old but it's a great mower.
Again thanks for taking the time to show us all how easy something like this is to do. Note I was a auto mechanic for 35 years and like doing things myself when possible. Again great job awesome block of instruction.
Sincerely Arni
Thank you. Especially coming from an auto Mechanic. I just tried to share what I learned as I went. It would be a shame to trash a good mower over a cable.
@@breakheartorchard4761 Your very welcome sincerely Arni Shook
Thanks Brother! My wife wanted to spend a small fortune on a new one. I spent a small fraction of that to fix the old one. Best Husqvarna video I've seen on the self propelled. Thanks again.
Thank you. I’m glad it worked for you.
Thank you for the detail. My Husq is back up and running and just really wanted to see the pulley direction, but learned a ton more. that tension cable instruction helped a ton. Good mowing and Good night!
I am glad that it helped.
Man! Super helpful video! Just what I needed. I wish you had better lighting when showing the reinstalled belt!
The Guy is Awesome. I thank him for this video! Got mine up and running in no time flat. Best video I could find on this.
David Wiggins, thank you so much for the positive feedback. Im glad it worked out.
Great video. Wish it was not so dark when working on underside of mower. I have to replace same parts on my mower. Thank you.
Thank you, Sir! Had this mower 5 years, shes great when shes great! My AWD its not working, pulley's seized too! Currently waiting on Fed Ex today for parts from Husqvarna. I appreciate the rundown and thoroughly enjoyed the tranquility of your property while watching
Glad it helped. Check out the rest of our channel. We are building a house in the mountains. Lots of spectacular views.
my mower had a few differences but your helpful tips and instructions with visual was extremely helpful. Replaced all but cable and working well. thanks again.
Awesome instructional video! You saved me $350 because I was on the verge of buying a new lawn mower.
Cool.
Thanks for the the video man. Great job no wasted time and very clear.
Glad to help
THANKS !!!! just what I needed, have mine disassembled to change oil, may go ahead and do the belt, while I am at it !!! I bought my HU800AWD in 2013, and it is still running great, HUSQ makes VERY GOOD mowers !!!!
Thank you for the detailed video. I followed it and fixed my mower. 😀
Hey, that’s awesome. It’s so much better to repair and get another year or two out of a good mower.
Thanks! saved me a lot of time figuring out how to remove the front cover.
Awesome video and thank you. I was doing maintenance and found one of the pulleys was frozen and the belt was stretched out. I ordered the parts from Amazon and will complete the task thanks you. So thank you again.
Glad it helped.
The view was completed obscured by darkness.
Thanks man. This video was a huge help. I just replaced my belt and was able to clean out all the gunk that builds up under the fairings and that was probably the cause of why the belt failed in the first place now I’ll be cleaning under there periodically to keep that from happening again..
Thank you so much! I was able to follow step by step and get my mower's belt changed. I appreciate this video more than you know!
Glad to help
A great video!!! Gives simple step by step instructions that are easy to understand and follow. Made a diificult job easy to accomplish. Thank you very much!!
Glad it helped!
Thank you, this video was a BIG help !! 👍😎
Best EVER. I couldn’t have done it without you! Thank you so much for posting it.
Thank you. I’m glad it helped.
thanks for the step by step,, I'm left handed and half assed dyslexic so I don't always see things as they are
That was no mouse nest. These mowers do not have a great belt relay or grass clipping flow design. The belt basically transports and deposits debris around the transmission pulleys. It's HIGHLY advisable to clean out under the plastic top cover and bottom shroud after every mowing season.
I own this very mower and today my belt pulley broke off. When I cleaned underneath it I pulled out about 5 lb of hay wet grass and nastiness. You are exactly right there is no protection for these belts It is one of the worst designs I have ever seen in my life and I've been mowing lawn since I was 7 years old. I take care of this mower I try to keep it clean but you have to literally flip it upside down to clean it every time. Design flaw from the very beginning I'm going to try to fix it but I'm a little pissed right now😂
Wow! Great video. Step by step instructions, easily understood. Thanks so much!
Glad it helped.
I just got this exact mower from some super rich house for free because the self propel hardly worked. All I did was put more tension on the drive tensioner with the adjuster lmao.
New looking awd mower? Let's goooo
Sharpen the blades and keep it going
Very nice video. I will be changing all that stuff this winter, Thanks again....
Great video/instructions! Thank you so much!
Thanks for the feedback. Really glad it helped.
I tore my daughters all the way down. But now, of course, I'm still tryin' to get it started...:-)
I was so wrong it was drive cable thank you so much
Glad it helped.
@@breakheartorchard4761 thank you so mucj
Dude I have been looking for a damn awd belt schematic or diagram forever and finally came across ur video, my craftsman was up and running in 10sec after I saw the bottom side of ur mower. Thank you thank you!
That’s awesome. Glad it worked for you.
Thanks for taking the time to record this video, so helpful for me specially with the small spring. Blessings and HAPPY FATHER'S DAY.
Thank you. I am glad it helped.
Good video but you need more light to show all of the parts by the back wheels.
Great video! Thank you for making it. Successfully repaired my own mower!
Fantastic.
Fantastic.
THANKS FOR THE VIDEO, YOU JUST SAVED ME 250.00! GREAT VIDEO!
You just put a smile on my face. So glad to be able to pay it back to the people out there who have taught me. That is what this is all about.
Great video! Thanks for making this. Helped me replace my drive cable this week.
Glad we could help
I did the cable. It took a couple hours,but it works now.
Great video and really showed the workings so I could understand what I needed to do. If you're like me though in Charleston the heat index is about 115 outside and way to hot to spend a couple hours doing this. What I did was check and replace the 3 center pulleys and replaced the cable that goes to the handle, took me about 10 minutes and fixed my issue until I can deal with belt replacement this fall when its cooler.
Yeah, the last couple days have been ok but most days it has been mid 90’s.
Thank you! Clear and concise instructions. Just what I needed!
Thanks Jim. Glad it was helpful.
Good video 📸
Great video! Replacing the cable was exactly what I need to see!
Great video! Helped out greatly! The little spring on the rear was hard for me to figure out position! This is really good1 Great instructor!
Thank you. I’m glad it was helpful.
@@breakheartorchard4761 You are very welcome! It was a great help to me!
Awesome and very helpful video. Gives me confidence that I can fix the belt on my mower and not scrap it for a new one yet. Thanks for sharing.
We love the idea of giving a good machine another year or two of life. And there is so much satisfaction in doing it yourself.
Great video that really helped in my repair! Thanks for taking the time to make it!
Glad to be of help.
Great video, The wheels on my mower would turn when lifted but had no power on ground, replaced the drive cable and belt and works great now, Thanks for uploading.
Awesome!
Thank you so much for this video. I had to replace a belt and would have had no clue. It is a nice mower.
I am really glad you were able to use it. Hope everything is running strong again.
@@breakheartorchard4761 Thanks for the video. There are some tricky things I never would have found out or it would have took me a very long time. I appreciate the video. It is a nice mower.
Thanks. It helped a lot in my repair of a similar rear wheel drive mower.
Good news. Glad it helped.
Great and easy to understand with your guidance ,dude handled the mouse thing pretty good for a big burly guy ,I would of screamed and tossed ,then ran.👍great job.
Thanks for taking the time and effort . Mine is 10 Yrs old with a perfectly good engine. Now I believe with you help that I can do this myself. Thank You.
Glad it helped.
Thanks man I used your video to change my belt 👍
Cool. I’m glad it helped.
Thank you for this video. I wish I had seen this two weeks ago, would have saved me a lot of time. Now I'm off to change the drive cable
“It’s never too late”
Thanks...I have one and really like it! Cranks 1st pull every time for last 5yrs
Thank you. I needed this video. Only one hour for the first time I consider that really good.
Good to hear.
Great video. Had that exact same machine with broken belt. You made it somewhat easy. Some of my bolts were different but you really helped.
Glad it helped. I’ve had mine 6 or 7 years now.
close up of the spring installed would be nice
Hello.
I just wanted to thank you for your great video. I needed to replace the drive cable and you made it easy. Many thanks.
Really glad it helped.
A small closed on wrench will help you remove the cable, slide it over the cable to depress the plastic tabs then pull cable out.
Th😄😃😀e Best VideoI have ever used had to go back several times to get it right but the answer was on the video THANKS THANKS GENE
Glad to hear that it helped.
Very good and detailed video! Thanks very much.
Most excellent job with descriptions and bolt sizes etc etc. Thank you, new subscriber!!
Glad it helped.
Excellent video Sir! Thank you so much for posting this! Well done! 👍
Happy to help. Glad you enjoyed it.
Thanks man couldn’t figure out where the clutch cable linked to
Thank you! This saved me so much money.
Nice. Glad it helped.
Thanks again, exactly what I was looking for.
After watching and getting over the initial shock of how much has to be taken apart, lol , it,s not as bad as R+R rebuild a V-8 engine! To be safe you should remove and isolate the spark plug wire. Manufacture says empty and run out gas from carburetor. I,m going to check all associated moving parts for proper condition before I purchase the parts I need.
Great video, purchased the cable off of your link!
Worth the money.
Thank you! I put a c-washer between the old cable and it was enough to give the wheels some grab so I didn't have to replace the belt. 4wd back in commission.
Thank brother 🙏
Glad it helped.
Wow what a pain in the #$%!!. I'm about to replace the belt and I knew it was not going to be that easy. You would thing Husqvrna would of done a better job in covering/protecting the belt system against grass clippings. Thank you very much for an excellent explaination to this replacement.
Awesome Video , Thumbs Up
I have a Jonsered that is the same machine. Excellent video, thanks.
Glad to help.
That was a really good video.. I will be doing the same repair in a couple days. Now I am confident it will be easy.
It really isn’t difficult. It is just a little time consuming. If you have a platform to lift it onto, you will save your back. Bending over for a long time is no fun.
I used the tailgate of my truck. Mows like new again
@@jerryhihn9972 way to go.
Thank you so much. Thats awesome. I just got same frame.
Great video, thanks!
Please watch this video on a TV. You going to have the best quality views.
Awesome video!! You don't have to take that grey front cover off though. Remove the long bolt from the front transmission and the bolt behind the front wheel that holds the transmission steady. If you pull the transmission just slightly towards yourself, you can slide the belt over the pulley. Then you just put the guide bolt back through the transmission to hold the belt in place. Then replace the bolt behind the wheel.
Thanks. Hopefully that will save someone some time.
@@breakheartorchard4761 No sir, thank you. I would've been screwed if not for that video. I miss when manufacturers didn't intentionally make things complicated.
Thanks for the tip. It works! The belt kept slipping off the front pulley when I was trying to reassemble the front end, and this method bypasses that step all together. A bit tricky, but much less frustrating.
Yea I bought one and thought man it’ll work great till it don’t !!! 2 years in and booom it doesn’t work! Now I see why. Thanks
Thanks. Very helpful
This guy is a mechanic compared to me as a klutz. I think I will take my mower in to the shop where I bought it. Great demo though.
You can do it.
Very good video just wish you had added part number for belt and pulley but i am sure i can figure it out. Thank you for taking time to make this video.
thank you for your good imformacion good job
great video thanks just one thing/// head size is not bolt size as you continuously called the head size as the bolt size. There was no bolt bigger than 1/4" based on your calling it a "7/16th" bolt. It matters whensomeone needs to replace the bolts and they ask for it based on head size
I beat the HELLLLL outa mine. Clean it after every run. Never had a problem.
Funny you say that... I bought mine solely to beat the dogshit out of it as my new yard was 1/2 woods.. 4yrs into it and I've replaced the filter, spark plug, rebuilt the carb and the belt just wore out.. 10 out of 10 product.. I kick the shit out of it.. lol But I do clean it after every use and I'm in Florida so 12months of use.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
I’m happy to help.
Yea you better get the self propeller working in order to mow that mountain behind you
Thanks a bushel !
Good job thank you
