As everyone knows, the hard part of any task like this (when you've never done it before) is the actually removal and reinstallation process. You skipped over that part and just said "after lots of off camera manipulation". Well, that's the part I needed to see. I have the bolt out, but it's sized up. I'm sure there's a trick, but it would have been helpful if you had shown that part. Basically, this video just shows a before and after picture of a clutch removal. Sorry, but just not helpful.

The clutch on my Cub Cadet 1525 came off easily with an impact wrench - I doubt I could have gotten it with a wrench. And then it just falls right off. Putting it back on was easy until you get to that part about holding the shaft with Chan-nel-locks, because the Cub Cadet shaft is near impossible to reach. It's going to have to be impact for this install.

I think if you were careful you would be ok. The worry would be in gap in the clutch, mine was non adjustable so if you were to knock it out of tolerance it may not function properly. Others I have seen have three little adjustment screws, if it is adjustable I would feel a little safer banging on it a bit. You still have to be able to check the gap though to adjust it though and the gaps we are talking about are in the thousandths of an inch like 12,000ths or so.

Hi Wayne, sorry you had this problem. Nothing worse than already being behind on the mowing and having a breakdown. When the grass is dry your mower the blades don't just cut the grass but push air around the Inside of the deck blowing the grass out. If the grass is wet it wants to stick to the deck instead. This cloggs things up causing wear and tear on your mower.
@WayneHarris

@@MasterofNone2 Does the wet, stuck grass, damage the clutch?
@MasterofNone2
2 жыл бұрын
@@WayneHarris yes Wayne, the shaft comes out of the engine and has a pully that powers the drive wheels. Below that you have a pto clutch, the clutch allows you have another pully that doesn't have to spin just because the engine is running. It has a break and electric magnets that either engage the pully for the blades or disengage and break the blades. The tolerances in the clutch for it to do this are in the thousands of an inch. The wet grass clogs the deck not allowing the blades to spin freely forcing the blades to slow down. This can cause the belt to slip or can cause the contact areas in the clutch to slip ruining the clutch.

Master of None The day after I sent that msg to you I bought and higher torque impact driver and it came off!!!! Never could get that engine pulley off after taking the clutch off. I wanted to put some lubrication on that part of the shaft for future maintenance. Side note. I also removed the two idler pulleys that are clustered close to the “bracket assembly idle arm” located on the drive belt. The pulley in question is the one that is NOT attached to the bracket. It’s the V pulley furthest to the right of you if you are facing the front of the mower with the front end up. I figured since I have it open change those too since the mower is about 13 years old. The problem is I’m trying to figure out should there be a nut on the other end of the through bolt that goes through the V-pulley? When I removed the bolt it was threaded directly into the frame sheetmetal. It is acting as a threaded nut of sorts. Also on the backside of the pulley there was a washer that slipped off of course I can’t find it. The washer was laying flush against the bearing surface on the pulley. I’m not sure if it was a split washer, lock washer but I’m fairly certain it was just a flat washer. Any suggestions? Oh and I also used a telescopic magnet to feel around there for the lost washer but no luck. Thanks again!!!! Wealth of knowledge!!!!
