Parts for Craftsman 247297750: Engine 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.

The Hex Jam Nut is a genuine 4 oz. jam nut. This part is half the height of most standardized hex nuts. Typically used as a locknut, hex jam nuts are used for two general purposes. The first application is that a jam nut can be used in conjunction with a bolt to be tightened against a standard nut. By using the hex nut and the bolt together, the standard nut will lock in place and will not back off. The second application is that jam nuts are used in tight uneven places as a means to level. Further, jam nuts can be used in situations where sufficient space is lacking for a standard nut.The Hex Jam Nut is sold individually. If a hex jam nut is lost through general use, it can be replaced simply with the same OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer. The part can be replaced and installed with a wrench and should only take a few minutes to replace.

An idler pulley is an essential part of many small and medium sized gasoline powered tools. This idler pulley is used in equipment such as tillers, lawn tractors, log splitters, edgers, snow blowers, and trimmers. The idler pulley is necessary so that the engine can run without the tool's moving parts being engaged. For instance, a lawn tractor running without the cutting blades turning or the wheels rolling. Once the idler pulley is engaged, the blade begins to turn. There is a great deal of resistance encountered by the idler pulley each time the equipment's tools begin to turn. Over time, the pulley can become worn and will eventually need to be replaced. If there is a squealing sound whenever the moving parts of a lawn tool are engaged, it is probably a sign that the idler pulley is about to fail. The pulley itself is attached to the engine housing with 9/16 hex bolts and requires an adjustable wrench and 9/16 ratchet to remove and replace. Always use a genuine OEM manufactured replacement part such as this one when replacing the original, as this part is identical to the original.
