Ariens Lawn Mower Parts

This is the replacement washer head screw for a lawnmower or lawn tractor. It is black in color and is roughly 1.5 inches in length. With its hexagonal head and washer face, it is usually used as a fastener in outdoor power tools. It is self-tapping, meaning it can tap its own threads when screwed into either plastic, wood, or metal. When used with lawn tractors and lawnmowers, this screw is commonly employed for securing the mandrel housing to the mower deck. Replace the washer head screw if the old screw is damaged or missing. First, a pilot hole should be made that's slightly smaller than the diameter of this screw before driving it with a screwdriver. This is also a thread-forming type of self-tapping screw, and it does not have a pointed tip. It is compatible with specific products from major brands like Ariens, Craftsman, Husqvarna, Murray, Poulan, Ryobi, and Weed Eater. This part is sold individually and is a genuine OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer.

This type of lawnmower blade is characterized by deeper curves on the ends, which create enough suction to circulate and expel the grass clippings into a bagger. It is designed to improve the way clippings are ejected out of the discharge chute. It also has larger wind wings that increase airflow. This helps prevent clogging when mowing wet or tall grass. Without a bagger, these blades put excess load on the engine and don't expel clippings as efficiently as low lift blades.  The wear and tear on a high lift blade are considerable, so there's a risk of using a dull blade without regular replacement. Blade erosion can happen over time due to debris, and the mower may offer noticeably less efficient performance when cutting grass. It is time to replace the blade if it has nicks and dents. For the average homeowner, a good rule of thumb is to replace the mower blades annually.  This part is compatible with specific models from Ariens, Craftsman, Husqvarna, Poulan, and Murray. It is an OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer and is sold individually.

This genuine OEM replacement idler return spring is located in the lower deck of a lawn mower or lawn tractor and helps to secure the idler pulley in place. While a lawn mower is in motion, the parts of the lower deck can shift with inertia. To keep the idler pulleys securely positioned to the belt that drives the blade, manufacturers connect the pulley to the outer frame of the deck with an idler return spring. Springs slowly lose tension over time, and if the spring becomes too loose, the pulleys can become unsecured from their place on the lower deck. Replacing an idler return spring is an easy fix and should only take a few minutes. Simply lower and remove the deck, take out the worn-out spring, and replace it with the new. We recommend wearing gloves and using caution as the old spring may still have enough tension to flex back on your hands.

An interlock switch is responsible for shutting down the engine if the equipment is running in an unsafe manner. It is a safety component that prevents the engine from starting if you aren't pressing down the brake with your foot or if the parking brake isn't in place. If the interlock switch beaks, the current will no longer reach the solenoid coil even if the brake is depressed. This will result in the engine not starting. If turning the ignition key doesn't result in the click of the solenoid, the damaged part is likely the interlock switch. The first step is to disconnect the battery and then release the steering plate. Next, remove the interlock switch under the hood and install the new one. At this point, the other parts can be reinstalled, and the lawn mower can be used.

The mandrel pulley or spindle pulley is a metal part that spins the blades of a riding mower as it is turned with a belt.

Once you have found a stationary place for the mower and made certain it cannot be started, drop the mower housing by removing the locking pins and arms. Next, you’ll want to disconnect the spring from the clutch rod. This will allow you to roll the mowing belt off the engine pulley. Remove the deck from beneath the tractor.
