OrangeMetalGuy Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 I have a 42" deck but the model# plate is gone. I'm trying to download the correct manual... I've downloaded several mower-only manuals plus the 7016H parts manual. The problem is the 42" decks in those manuals don't exactly match mine. What's different appears to be the drive pulley assembly. I'm hoping someone can get me the right part # for the deck, from looking at the pics of the drive pulley and piece that attaches to the tall spindle:
Zach Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 Model # on the deck for my 7016H is 1690022. Hope this helps:)
OrangeMetalGuy Posted February 22, 2009 Author Posted February 22, 2009 Sorry but that model # doesn't point to the right manuals either. I doubt that this is the deck that originally came with the tractor... that's why I included the pics of that attachment piece that connects onto the center spindle. Hopefully someone can recognize it. I just want to get a parts schematic so I know exactly how to put it together.
nateb17010 Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 take a pitcher of the deck that will help out some.
firefoxz1 Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 See if this one is right for you 990885. http://www.simplicitymfg.com/data/temppdfs/TP_400_1362_00_AT_S_LOA320D53D-931D-C2F4-47A3A2A944A3F40E.pdf
OrangeMetalGuy Posted February 23, 2009 Author Posted February 23, 2009 Firefoxz1 I think you hit it... I'll compare to my pile-O-parts tonight at home, but it sure looks like the one I have. Thanks!
Simpleton7016 Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 If there is room, put a double nut on that pulley spindle. If there isn't, then loctite the ever lovin' snot out of the single nut. If that nut comes loose during operation, you are up a certain creek that is a cousin of spit creek.
OrangeMetalGuy Posted February 23, 2009 Author Posted February 23, 2009 You're talking about the top pulley? I hadn't thought about using Loctite during the rebuild but makes sense.
toomanytractors Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 The best thing you can do with the self locking nut on top of the arbor shafts is to pitch them in the trash and replace them. They should be available at the dealer and they're not that expensive. I've seen several shafts and pulleys ruined when they were used over even with thread locker on them. Dave
OrangeMetalGuy Posted February 23, 2009 Author Posted February 23, 2009 I'll look the nuts over... they don't look like anything special but I'll check after I get them out of the vinegar they're soaking in to remove the rust.
Gary Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 Trust me...those are special nuts. I've got the part number around here somewhere...if I could only find it.
MPH Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 I can get all metal self locking nuts at the local NAPA. Self lockers should only be used once, a metal stress thing I believe.
OrangeMetalGuy Posted February 24, 2009 Author Posted February 24, 2009 10-4. The manual calls them "jamb nuts". I'll bring one to my local auto parts dealer and see if I can get them.
