I have a Husqvarna AWD push mower in need of a new belt and pulleys for the self propel. In this video I replace them and do other minor things to get the mower ready for sale.
I have a newer model of this lawn mower, you basically have to take the front wheels off now to get the top plastic cover off so you can get to the front axle pulley. There are also more metal tabs that guide the belt, so it looks like it is wrong (my belt was broken so I didn't have a reference) because it is rubbing the metal, that is fine, once tensioned it has like a hairs width of room. You should put the belt on the back pulley first, that is the hardest one unless you want to take that wheel axle off too, then around the front one and put the axle and plastic cover back on, hope you don't lose any screws in there, then put two of the 3 pulleys on as done in the same configuration of this video, then around the blade one, then the final pulley (the one with the screw) will relatively easily go on. Make sure not to put that pulley bolt in at an angle, then re-attach the blade as that is holding the motor pulley before re-attaching the cable and spring on the rear. Worst thing is with this model, while you are working, oil/fuel has been leaking into either the exhaust or the carburetor, depending on which way you tipped it, in my case, the auto-choke spring also jumped off so take the top cover off, take and clean those things out (just a rag and some carb cleaner will do, it will smoke for a few minutes after you start) make sure there are no dangling springs around your carburetor, reattach those, put the covers back and start the engine. If you don't put the cover back on, you'll hear a loud rattling, it's just the pull chain (took me about 30m of figuring out where the clanging noise came from).
Kinda hard to get the belt over the pulley of the rear transaxle. Large screw driver does the trick and tap all back into place with a hammer. All done.
Top video on the subject - thanks.
In 3 weeks I’ve all ready done 11 of these with new belt and 3 pulleys 😊😊😊
Mr Ellis you can pop the bearing covers off on those pulleys real easy and put some grease in them. They are dry and will fail again. There’s also a small return spring that returns the transmission to its neural position. It frequently rusts away. That’s what’s causing the dragging. It attaches to the corner of the rear transmission.
Thanks for the tips, this mower had sat a while and had some rusty parts so that is likely the issue.
Merci pour la video
That mower was $ 533 and some change at Lowe's when I got my back in 2017 I'll send you a picture of my mower that 190 cc Honda engine is the best engine Glad you have this one to work on there Casey 👍👌😎 oh by the way have heard from Alex from freedom mowers it's been awhile since we heard from him
Thanks Robert! This one turned out better than expected. I haven't heard from Alex either since the Spring, not sure what happened to him. His channel was just about to get off the ground too!
@@EllisMowersandmore hopefully he will be back on his chanel soon
Remember I had one a couple of years ago I sold it for like $300 then with the Honda engine but it had the small wheels all around and awd
I got about half for this one since its condition wasn't the best and it was the off season. But I got a good trade in!
Idler pulleys are not cheap.
I was surprised at how expensive the kit was, but the mower turned out really nice so it was worth it to do in the end.
@Ellis Mowers The bearings are not protected very good.
@@EllisMowersandmoremost of them have the second belt and pulley guard missing from factory
No they will not warranty it 😢
Not so cheap for sure, good job
The kit was a little over $50, but the mower turned out really nice for what I started with.
Video almost perfect, but a couple of times you stalled it to see what was wrong but never did explain the problem
