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 drive V-belt, manufactured by Craftsman, is used in one- and two-stage snow blowers as well as tillers. This is a drive belt that connects the engine to the auger of the tiller or snowblower via a pulley at either end. This turns the blades of the tiller or the auger blades of the blower to expel snow. As a flexible, hardened rubber part connecting other moving parts, a V-belt is considered “replaceable,” meaning that users should expect to have to replace this part during normal use of the equipment. Signs that a drive V-belt may be going bad are a squealing sound when the blower's auger or the tiller's blades are first engaged, or if the auger is slow to engage and loses power during use. To replace the V-belt, the equipment must be secured and the spark plug caps removed. Tilt the device to reveal the location of the belt. It must detached from the engine pulley and the transmission pulley. When replacing the V-belt, before tightening the pulley, make sure all moving parts are properly aligned.

A flange nut's unique wide flange design distributes the nut's pressure over the part it is securing. In return, it creates an even fastening surface, which reduces part damage and nut loosening. This one-piece all-metal fastener has a lock nut version that features a protruding circular flange. This drastically increases bearing surface, compatibility either for irregular or oversized holes, and surface tension reduction. Flange lock nuts are the preferred type of fastener for many lawnmower models because it can provide better fastening than regular screws, which are known to loosen under extreme vibration. However, it’s important to know that flange lock nuts are susceptible to wear and tear due to constant vibration exposure. It is essential to replace the broken flange lock nut immediately to prevent serious damage to the lawnmower.
