This genuine MTD replacement part is an extension spring for use with lawn tractors. It is also known as an idler arm return spring. A properly functioning extension spring is essential for the safe and reliable use of a lawn tractor. The extension spring returns the idler arm into position, releasing tension on the belt. The extension spring expands and contracts, which can lead to the spring becoming worn out or damaged with extended use, necessitating replacement. Remember to check the extension spring periodically to spot any wear or damage. This part is an identical replacement for an extension spring that is missing, worn out, or damaged. Prior to working with this part, please refer to the original product manual for installation instructions. Additional tools may be required for installation of this part. For safety, always wear gloves and ensure unit is powered down prior to performing any installation or repair.This high quality OEM replacement part is sourced directly from the manufacturer, and it is sold individually.

The extension spring is compatible with many lawn tractor and riding mower models. The extension spring is often used to allow the idler pulley bracket to pivot when the blade rotation is started or turned off. If there is a problem with the spring, it will affect the functionality and usability of the mower.The spring is made from quality metal, and it is built to stand up to the elements. However, there is still the possibility of problems with the extension spring. In some cases, it might become worn out over time and need to be replaced. It might also corrode.

This is a shoulder screw that is used to secure the handles of yard equipment. Typically, this screw is used with a matching wing nut, which is sold separately. Many different varieties of push lawn mowers have handles that fold downward for ease of storage. This is one of the locations on a mower where one will find shoulder bolts and the point at which these bolts are most likely wear out. While they are made of durable machined metal, shoulder bolts receive a great deal of wear, particularly from the handles being raised and lowered each time the mower is used. When pushing down on the mower to clear wet grass clippings or to make sharp turns with the mower, the entire weight of the mower is put on the two shoulder screws where they intersect. Since the metal of the handles can turn at that juncture, extra shearing action is put on the shoulder bolts, which can wear out. It is actually advantageous that the bolts wear out since otherwise, the handles themselves would warp and break apart. These OEM genuine replacement parts fit a number of different lawn and garden machines, including many made by Cub Cadets, Husky, Troy-Bilt, Craftsman, Yard-Man, Bolens, MTD, and Yard-Machines.
