Great informative video! Tinker popped up at 17:22! I however did not use your method to fix the problem. The issue is a divot that wears into the plate you replaced. If you are cheap like me you simply fix the plate you have by using a bench grinder to smooth out the divot then just lubricate the area and reinstall. Your video does a great job of showing the steps to take it all apart and reinstalling.
I have the LT3000 and just took care of this problem before seeing this video. I still had a GOOD return spring. However, looking at the wear marks on the plate, (beyond the divots that those rollers create) I also discovered that the bottom of the plate had significant wear (FRICTION) against the mower deck. Under that plate is a large but thin washer intended to keep it from resting on the mower deck. I added a large slightly thicker washer which made the difference for me. I also hand filed those divot spots smooth again.
This has to be the best video on the internet showing how to do this. Very clear and concise. I noticed that I'm missing that spring, too! I guess I'll be ordering one.
Thanks so much Gary! I appreciate you watching! Be sure to check out other great content on my channel. By the way have you watched my automowers videos? Last year I installed robots to cut my lawn, if you want to see more, be sure to check out the video here: ua-cam.com/video/faCATh_rBE8/v-deo.html
@@TinkerForward Thank you. I'll check out your other videos, too! Can't believe I didn't notice that spring was missing. I bought 2 of them and they should be here in a couple of days.
Great Video, Thank you so much . I been looking at so many videos and no one had explained like you. I was able to repair my belt, pulleys and spring that i was missing too. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
You're welcome!
Thanks for the video, was able to fix the problem.
You just saved me a shit load of time so thank you!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Very good thank you
Good useful video with good photography
Thanks a lot
I’m not sure what’s available at sears anymore but Amazon is carrying them cause I just looked a package deal that includes the arm as well as the two brakes with the roller cams on them. It even includes the springs all for under $30. I think it was 27.99. This is the same repair package. I used to carry on the truck when I used to work for Sears repair services. It only makes sense to replace it all with that kind of money. Of course you should also make sure the bearings are good on those idler pulleys while you have them off. Those idler pulleys are kind of expensive, but the actual bearings can be purchased very cheaply usually and it’s not that big of a project to replace them.
Great video. I installed the new plate, but the blades still turn. At 12:40 on your video, you can see a tab above the half moon slot that acts as a stop for the plate. My new plate goes all the way to this tab but blades still turn. My thought was to cut a groove in the new plate to allow it to move further to disengage the blade. I found this plate in a deck kit I had ordered years ago, any thoughts.
I would fill in that indentation by welding, then perfectly shape it like the original and never have that problem again. Weld is harder than mild steel. The new part will fail in time also.
Thanks for the video, very helpful. I was able to do it without removing the wheel on the left .
Great job! Thanks for watching!
How is it that possible? It appears that they are connected. Look at 12:16.
Ahh, I didn’t remove the left wheel from the mounting plate that he starts to address around 9:20. I removed it as one assembly
@@abean6071 you are correct. My bad...Johnsons small engine has a video on this that shows him removing the left wheel assembly so you have only the right wheel to contend with.
Mine does that I disengage the blades raise the deck all the way up and throttle down. for some reason on mine that disengages the blades. It works for me you might try it b4 you repair it.
I just changed the parts u did plus a new belt and new brake arms on the pulls and the blades still spin when disingauged
Might be a bad PTO switch. I had that problem
I need the return spring too 😂
How do you change the belt on the deck
Tinker on your LT2000 when you increase your engine speed do your blades spin the same speed or faster
Hi, I believe they spin the same speed
The belts spin with the engine. Therefore when you throttle up 🐇 to increase your engine speed the blades spin faster as well. But blade speed is in no relation to transmission/wheel speed.
Learned the hard way with this issue lost a finger tip
Is there a fuse because mine doesn't move click or anything
Didnt need to spend any money for that bottom plate to fix your problem. Look at the part and sand/grind any burs off and replace. There is a video on it. Highly recommend sanding some of that rust off all the moving parts and add a lite grease before putting all the pieces back in place.
Couldn't you put a little weld on that groove to fill it in and then hit it with a grinder to smooth it out?
Dang, that spring could have been the main cause if the problem. I know someone with a Poulan Pro that just started with the blades not disengaging and also there was a spring like that all stretched out and wrapped around one of the blades. We haven't been able to find where the spring came from so far though.
On second thought, it couldn't just be the spring, because that would be too easy.
Why not just clearance that plate, or the one that’s causing the interference, or both? Seems like a five minute job with a good die grinder.
They are carriage bolts. And the birds are Sandhill cranes.
Good to know! Thanks so much! The sandhill cranes were in our yard quite a bit shortly after making this video, I'm glad I was able to get them on camera. Thanks for watching!
Where the link for that plate?
Did you find it. I need it too..
@@rlt1287 no I didn't but I quit looking like 20 minuts after I watched the video!
