How Murray's 'Shift-on-the-go/fly' works

- For years Murray used a system called 'Shift-on-the-go' also called 'Shift-on-the-fly' in their gear drive, front engine lawn tractors. The transaxle is not anything special, just a regular 6-speed manual-shift Peerless. The trick is in the clutching system, watch and learn.

the 'F' is worn off on mine so now its a "shit on the go"
i had one just like that one . had a flat pulley on the trans , even though the v part of belt was what made contact with pulley . squealed when you first let clutch out , but worked well . only time i ever saw a flat pulley that didn't contact flat side of belt .
the late 80's murrays are exactly candy apple red. I got some candy apple red spray paint at walmart (had the roundish cap on it) and its a 99% perfect match. lol
Great video helped a lot with diagnosing mine
Interesting the way that system works!!!......Cool video. We use to have a old sears tractor when we lived at our old house that I think MAY have had something like this...but then again maybe it didnt. I dont recall for sure what it did or didnt have. I do know that it was from the early to mid 80s or so. Cool video man. :)
I baught mine in 1992 and it still works !
Good info, i have always wondered what the difference is, Thanks.
I own a 13.5 hp Murray. Ir runs good and has always worked for me. I'm looking at getting a little more out of it by installing a plow for snow removal. I know that Murray did some ride ons with Craftsman and I wondered if the Craftman accessories would work for a Murray.
Do u have a video how to replace that drive belt? Ur underside video is the clearest pic. Thank u.
I've got a Dynamark design that has the pulley in the front by the right brake pedal. It doesn't fully leave enough tension when the clutch/brake is disengaged to stop the rear trans. pulley from moving, so it is hard to shift with that trans. pulley always moving.
So clean
I miss the all metal tractors....now they have cheap yet expensive plastic and fiberglass ones
Really? What's it matter? The frame is metal and on anything decent the fr. axle is cast iron. The deck is metal so all you're talking about is the cover and wheel wells which just serve to improve cosmetics and keep grass from flying where it shouldn't. Plastic does that job fine so long as it isn't so thin that after a few years of sun it gets brittle and cracks apart.
@@stinkycheese804 the plastic body does fade and crack because of the sun and it is a lot weaker
im sure you could.. in one of lynolsoffice's video he swapped a hydrostatic sears for a 5 speed manual.. put something beefy in there like a 5 speed from an old FORD YT16.
Could you do a pulley swap on a system like this?
These lawn mowers last longer than the new overpriced crap
yea some of the newer mowers are pieces of shit
I have a 2015 craftsman, I thought it would have died by now, but it has 21hp and there is still a TON of torque! Stock, I can do wheelies. And it runs perfect still!
Not all are the same
Way better than MTD's bullshit with the two belts and single gear tranny.
I'm curious is it possible to make the transaxle articulate for offroad gokart uses with the same transaxle
It would have been a great tractor for you guys to fix
i disabled my seat switch on my mower
We had a murray like that with a 14.5 engine sad to say the starter seized and we trashed it with no tires
Seems like a silly thing to do when you consider you could put new tires on for about $120, a new starter for what, $50 if you can't just clean and lube it, so with $170 in it, it will work again, use it for a few more seasons and sell it for $300 eventually = Profit.
I have a 86 murray :D i use it as my 4wheeler, i changed shit, goes about 35KM/H
I have a Huskee, apparently same peerles gearbox, do you put oil or grease on it.. M
Lynol needs a racing tractor
they souldhave just stuck with the seprit clutch like on the montgomery ward oh do you still have that?
and my dad just unhooke 1 of 2 wires from his seat switch LOL its like a broken one cause something was wrong and he touche dthe connections togather it almost stalledso it works
I've got a Murray with a Briggs apposed twin, debating if I should fix it up. Wont start off the key or turn it off.
If what you meant was "should I repair by stuff instead of tossing it away every time a trivial thing breaks", yes you should unless you're made of money and like wasting it.
1 have a 5 speed snapper...i dont know if im shifting right.... i hit the cluck when i go into first then while im in first ill skip from 1- 5 then back to 2 then 1 then stop...or am i supposed to drive just like a manual car? clutch between gears??? becouse if i start in 5th, i pop a wheelie...
Nice, nice :D
With these shift on the fly systems does the rear transaxle actually shift? No matter what I do it seems like the rear big pulley on the rear spins the same? This mower is slow.. and second speed is slower.. What could be wrong?
You probably need a new belt tensioner, maybe just to lube the pivot on it so it moves freely, or possibly your belt is so stretched it is beyond the range of the tensioner, or so old it has hardened and is slipping on the pulley, or the pulley is gunked up with grass/goop and too slick so again the belt is slipping. If in doubt, do the cleaning first, then lube, get a new belt next since it will need one eventually anyway, and if it still is too slow, get a new tensioner. This assumes that you still have full throttle, if your throttle cable has stretched you might need to adjust the tensioner on it. lol, now I'm sure you'll be back to read my reply 7 years later but maybe someone else having the same problem will see this post.
I have a central park rider need wire diagram ror it
What model number is this I have a mower that's the exact same but the model number is faded and I need parts. Any help would be great
I have the same problem. did u ever find out what your model is? I need info on adjusting my transaxle linkage.
Chris Hendrickson this looks like mine. The model number is 42819x14a. Give it a google search and you should be able to find drawings
you made me lol
can you make a business out of your hobby?
I need decks and engines.
@adb140275 mine too lmao
Look how simple the belt setup is. Now a days it's like a damn puzzle putting a belt on. I'm talking about you MTD and your variable speed garbage.
