Very useful thanks. Just one omission. Very important to remove spark plug cap before working underneath.

Thanks for that I have five hayter harrier56 always changing belts and clutch cables I pull the mower backwards and it doesn't lock up is this a good sign of gear box gone have done a gear box before but always wondered whether it was the box. Its hard to tell when looking in side it without comparing to a new one inside thanks for the info great video

Cheers Mick, we tried heating it as well but couldn't get it to move. The gearbox was £110, but it ended up costing just over £200 in parts in the end. It's a good mower when the drives working.

@@anthonygreen9157 Well second-hand machines seem to be £300-400, but you don't know how much life is left in the drive on those. But yes, it's probably not economical to repair, which is why many people just get new ones. But we do it as a hobby and it keeps another mower out of landfill.

I need to replace the roller bearing on my hayter 48pro. It’s the opposite side to the sprocket and drive chain. Is there a way of doing this without removing roller? It seems the mower shell prevents me from unscrewing one of the bolts holding the bearing in.

My 3 year old Hayter Harrier 48 Autodrive Variable Speed has developed problems with the variable speed. When the mower is cold it works as new but after 30 mins or so the adjuster fails and it hardly runs in slow or medium positions but is fine in fast. Leave it an hour and it's fine again. What's happening?? Can you help?? The other interesting this with this mower is that the battery ran out of steam after 2.5 seasons and had to be replaced for a mere £70!
@snazzymowers1409

I have not worked on one of those exact mowers, however, most variable drive mowers work on some form of pulley and belt system, which either the pulley moves or has some internal gearing inside of it. It is possible the belts are worn, so they have more tension when in a fast setting, which could reduce the issue. Yet, when you put in the slower settings the belt could start to slip. The heat from the mower when it warms up could also increase the chance of slipping. Replacing the belts could be a good idea, failing that the pulley or another drive component could be on its way out.

I recently had a rear roller stripped and rebuilt replacing differentials and bearings plus a new clutch cable replacement. I got the mower back and tried it on grass and it's hardly pulling were as on hard smooth surfaces it does. Could you help me to understand if this is to do with the clutch cable or the roller rebuild or both please? Should I not expect this from the professional I used or is it just one of those things were the calibration is not quite right for a strong enough propel on grass?

Yeah honestly that's a good price, the gearbox alone was £110 for us, with other parts I don't think it was far off £200 for parts alone, so £240 with labour I'd say is a good price
