Tiller belt & hydro filter interference

Recommended Posts

I have a 7117H and have been struggling to figure out how to run the belt past the hydro filter. Is there a small guide pulley that redirects the belt slightly? I saw a message from Mike Sdack back in May 2007 with a question like this. Was that rear PTO guide the trick? I tried taking the filter off and installing the gasket, plate & plug the manufacturers drawings shows for the hydro section. All that does is cause me to lose the hydraulic flow. I put the filter back on and I get flow & the tranny works again. What a relief! I thought I busted something. What could I be doing wrong?

Also Simplicity does make 3 different length trans filters: 1650954 - 3 7/8" 1709322 - 3 1/8" 1671234 - 2 1/2" As I recall the shorter one is needed to help clear the tiller belt and even then it may touch slightly.

Thanks for the info. I wasted all summer with the plate replacement for the filter. Will have to get a new filter and look for the PTO pulley kit. I wish I found this club sooner.

Hi, I believe this kit is no longer available. The idler bracket I am sure of. Someplace, I have a factory drawing of the part. I had to make one and I'll look around and see if I can still find it. Al Eden

I checked one of the links here and the part no. does list a price for one but the info may not be current or it may come back as unavailable. If Al says its not available.. I'd bet its not available ;)

Hi, People may still have it in stock. As I remember, the last time I ordered one, I couldn't get it. This why I requested the drawing. I seem to remember some posts on this quite a while back, and it seems like Rod or Roy or someone posted a sketch with the dimensions. Thanks Al

Sounds like a good project to do with my son. Get him away from that computer and video games. Have him build something needed with his hands other than go to a store. According to to SEPW the pulley is 3.625" dia. & the bracket is 2" wide. I would just make bends to accommodate the center-line of the pulley from the frame.

      Site programming updates were made 3/23/2024. As a result some things have changed including dues payment options. We will continue maintenance and work with technicians to regain credit card payment option and clear up minor challenges. On positive it appears attaching pictures is now easier. Good day. Gene
