A flange lock nut, also known as a flange lock or a lock nut, is created to be used in various types of lawn and garden equipment. This flange lock nut holds other parts in place and, when properly threaded, will resist loosening. Over time, a flange lock nut may begin to weaken and may become loose or break. If it appears to be broken or weak, a replacement is required. Flange locks can be adjusted and uninstalled after use. When replacement is required, you may need a socket set, screwdriver, hacksaw, and butane torch. The socket wrench will loosen the bolt it is connected to, while the torch is used to heat the lock nut. A socket wrench may remove the nut, but sometimes cutting it with a hacksaw is required. This flange lock nut is a genuine OEM component directly from the manufacturer and comes in an individual unit. It is made of metal, a gold color, and can be found in various areas of lawn equipment. It works with lawnmowers, trimmers, snowblowers, cultivators, tillers, and leaf blowers by Poulan, MTD, Toro, Cub Cadet, Murray, Troy-Bilt, Bolens, Yard Machines, Craftsman, and Yard-Man.

The shave plate is a common snowblower part that attaches to the back of the blower housing and directs snow into the auger and blade assembly so it can be cleared. The particular layer of ice and snow this blade is removing is the hardest and heaviest part of the snowfall. The shave plate is also called the scraper bar or scraper blade. Periodically, because it is in direct contact with the concrete surface below the snow, the shave plate wears out and must be replaced. A shave plate may be worn, gouged, or sliced so it does not smoothly remove the snow from the sidewalk. Replacing the shave plate is a simple task that can be accomplished in 30 minutes or less. The shave plate is connected to the blower housing by four adjustable fasteners that are removed. This genuine OEM replacement part is manufactured by Genuine MTD. It is compatible with a great variety of snowblowers, including Husky, Troy-Bilt, Yard Machines, MTD, Cub Cadet, and Yard-Man. This OEM part is sold individually.

This bearing flange is used on a wide variety of lawnmowers and lawn tractors. Unlike other bearings, the flange bearing is used to ensure the axle assembly stays securely attached to the pivot axle. The purpose of the flange bearing is to make sure the axle is able to move freely and in an effortless manner. The bearing undergoes a large amount of friction and stress while in use, so it can start to wear down.If the lawnmower is showing signs of wear at the flange bearing, it should be replaced. It's a good idea to regularly inspect the part to be sure it is in good shape. To replace the flange bearing, remove the bolt from the steering shaft and remove the old bearing. Grease the new bearing and the shaft before reinstalling the part. Reassemble and tighten all parts.This is a genuine OEM replacement part that is directly sourced from the manufacturer. It is sold as an individual component. The flange bearing is made to be compatible with lawnmowers created by MasterCut, Yard-Man, Bolens, Huskee, MTD, Yard Machines, Murray, Troy-Bilt, Cub Cadet, and Craftsman.

Installing a brand-new air filter keeps the engine in top running condition. When the machine is in operation, the vacuumed air goes through the air filter. Any dirt or dust is left in the filter media. Over time, the filter will become dirty and can no longer provide the same filtering efficiency as before. If left ignored, the tiny particles could clog the engine and the carburetor. You may experience misfires and no engine start-up. An air filter replacement is cheap and easy to do. Simply remove the air cleaner cover and take out the dirty filter. Insert the new filter into the housing. This replacement will take less than 5 minutes. A screwdriver will be needed.
