rich_kildow Posted May 11, 2014 Posted May 11, 2014 I was using my 7116 to haul a trailer to move firewood this afternoon and forgot that I had only loosely installed the back idler pulley. This is the one on the spring tensioned mount that you switch ears for snowblower or mower operation. I found the pulley and bolt, but lost the nut, washer, and belt guide. The first two are no biggie, but the third one seems slightly important. I can't even find it in the parts diagram on Partstree? https://www.partstree.com/parts/?lc=simplicity&mn=1691382+-+7116%2C+Hydro+%28ML%29&dn=13085 It would mount between 14 and 23. Can anybody help me with a part number?

PhanDad Posted May 11, 2014 Posted May 11, 2014 Your probably looking for part #2162115, the belt stop that goes on this pulley for snow blower use. It's part of the mfg #1690557 single pulley front hitch. I run the stop for mowing also, I figure it can't hurt and I don't have to go looking for it when mounting the snow blower. Here's the link to the Partstree diagram: https://www.partstree.com/parts/?lc=simplicity&mn=1690557+-+36%22+%26+42%22+Snowthrower+Hitch&dn=18033
rich_kildow Posted May 11, 2014 Author Posted May 11, 2014 That would be it! It didn't even cross my mind that it wouldn't be a core part of the tractor.
