Parts for Yard-Man 31AE993I401 / 2000: Auger Assembly Parts

With small gasoline-powered tools that require control panels, this hex screw attaches the panel to the handles of the tools. Machined to be durable, important screws such as these take a real beating. In their locations at critical points on the handle, the hex screws are considered "wear items," and thus periodically, they must be replaced. The control panel itself is often a location of extreme forces, jostling, and abrupt movement in unpredictable directions. The constant movement, with sheet metal rubbing against the hex screws from every direction, make wear inevitable. The manufacturers recommend that spare screws of this type be kept on hand if the heavy use of the equipment is expected. Among the gasoline-powered tools that use these screws are snowblowers, yard tractors, mowers, tiller, chippers, shredders, and other tools requiring hand-maneuvered levers. These screws are compatible with a number of equipment brands and manufacturers, including MTD, Ryobi, Poulan, Yard-Man, Bolens, Troy-Bilt, and Yard Machines.

This is a replacement bell washer, a flat washer that can be used with a wide range of various types of lawn and garden equipment. The inner dimension of this washer is 0.40 inches, while the outer dimension is 0.88 inches. Washers are typically used as a way to help ensure a tight connection when used with bolts or screws. They will also help to distribute the pressure of the connection and reduce the risk of corrosion. Washers will also provide some protection from damage during installation. Washers could need to be replaced for any number of reasons. In some cases, they might have become corroded or worn down over time. This could mean they no longer provide a solid and secure connection. Other times, the washer could become lost while working on the machine. Owners should always be sure that they replace any lost or damaged washers right away. Not using washers can reduce the lifespan of the machine. This is a genuine OEM bell washer that is sold individually. It is typically used in lawn mowers, snowblowers, tillers, leaf blowers, string trimmers, log splitters, wood chippers, edgers, and chainsaws.

A carriage bolt is a type of fastener. It features a smooth rounded head and a square domed top. It has threading, which leads to up to the square shoulder.

This grease plug is a genuine OEM replacement part sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is found on snowblowers and other outdoor yard machines on the gearcase assembly, which houses the auger gear. The grease plug seals the oil port on the gearbox. This keeps lubrication inside the gearbox and is the access point for adding more when needed. If this plug is lost, the gearbox's oil could leak out, and contaminants could get into the gearbox.Lubricate the contents of the gearbox before installing the new grease plug. Locate and remove the two screws on the side to drain the gearbox. Install the grease plug in the bottom. Refill the oil using the vent hole. Continue filling until oil is coming out the top side screw. Close everything back up, and the machine is ready for use. To prepare the equipment for long storage, remove the grease plug and check the oil level. If it is not to the top, add more lubricant before sealing the grease plug.This grease plug is made of durable black molded plastic and is sold as an individual unit.

There are multiple uses for the 5/16-18 Hex Screw. It is often used with small gasoline-powered yard equipment such as lawn and garden machines. While hex screws such as these may be used in edgers and snowblowers, the most frequent use this screw is in yard tractors. This variety of screw is commonly used in attaching the various appendages of gas-powered equipment to a central operating platform. In particular, these hex screws are used to secure the engine block of power tools to the frame or housing of the equipment. Once in place, these fasteners have an almost unbreakable strength to them. This is so much so the case that often, in order to detach the engine manifold and repair the inner workings of an engine, the bolts must be chiseled or cut loose. In such cases, it is necessary for the bolts to be replaced during reassembly. Manufacturers insist that genuine OEM replacement parts be used in the rebuilding process. These replacement parts were manufactured to the same exacting specifications used to make the original screws. These OEM screws are compatible with equipment made and sold by Yard-Man, Cub Cadet, Troy-Bilt, Husky, MTD, Bolens, and Yard Machines.
