This replacement part is a height adjustment knob and is intended for use in different types of lawn equipment. This is a genuine replacement part made by MTD. Height adjustment knobs help the user adjust the height of the blades in lawn mowers. The blades then adjust to the desired height of the grass for each specific job. A new height adjustment knob might be needed if the user is unable to adjust the height on the current lawn mower. If the knob is visibly damaged it is recommended that it be replaced as soon as possible. If the knob is faulty, the blade height will be stuck on the same height. It is recommended that the user wear work gloves while replacing this part as it is close to the blades in the appliance.

This is a flanged lock nut. It’s designed to apply tension, typically on a joint that needs to have a certain amount of flex. As such, it’s mostly used on snowblower chutes and lawnmower handles. They can remain in place, but with a forgiving connection that can take a beating. The nut size is 3/8, with a thread size of 16. A lock nut will generally last for many years. However, the silicone ring inside will wear down if it’s frequently tightened and loosened. It needs to be replaced when it will no longer reliably remain in place. Generally, this begins as a symptom of slight slippage and worsens as time goes on. Thankfully, whether it’s being used on a snowblower or a lawnmower, this nut is generally straightforward to access. Simply unscrew the old nut, then screw the new nut on until it’s nice and tight. Our flanged lock nuts are genuine OEM MTD nuts, and they are sold individually.
