Parts for Poulan PR1842STA: Mower Deck Parts

This is a genuine OEM mandrel kit with a nut that is sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is designed for use on lawnmowers, tractors, and other outdoor lawn and garden equipment. The mandrel is responsible for spinning the blades on lawn mowers. It is part of the deck and can be a safety issue if not properly attached or if broken. If the spindle is broken or bent during use, it is apparent by uneven cutting, loud squealing, or vibrations, and buzzing sound. Mandrel replacement should be on a flat service for safety. If the mower is hot, allow it to cool before making repairs. Remove the spark plug and empty the gas tank. If the deck on the mower is removable, remove it before jacking the mower up. Once the mower is in the air, remove the blades to access the spindle. Remove the spindle. This is an excellent time to check the bearings and replace them if needed. Install the new spindle. Reinstall the blades. Lower the mower and if the deck was removed, reinstall the deck. This mandrel kit is made of high tensile metal; it comes with the nut for installation; it is sold as an individual unit. This mandrel kit is compatible with lawn mowers manufactured by Husqvarna Poulan, Weed Eater, and Ryobi.

This replacement deflector shield is a genuine OEM part intended for use on lawn mowers and tractors. It attaches to the side of the mower and directs grass clippings away from the blade as it mows. This serves to keep grass from bunching up in the blade, which could cause it to stall out. The direction of the deflector shield also blows grass clippings behind the mower to keep any potentially hazardous debris from flying up at the mower. Deflector shields can become dried out and brittle over time and can snap off if the mower drives too close to a wall, tree, or other hard object. Deflector shields usually only need replacing if they break. This would cause grass clippings and debris to fly in all directions, which could be dangerous for the user. Replacing the deflector shield is an easy repair and only requires a socket wrench set. This part is compatible with a wide variety of Husqvarna and Craftsman lawn mowers and tractors and is sourced from the original manufacturer. This product ships individually.

This is the replacement washer head screw for a lawnmower or lawn tractor. It is black in color and is roughly 1.5 inches in length. With its hexagonal head and washer face, it is usually used as a fastener in outdoor power tools. It is self-tapping, meaning it can tap its own threads when screwed into either plastic, wood, or metal. When used with lawn tractors and lawnmowers, this screw is commonly employed for securing the mandrel housing to the mower deck. Replace the washer head screw if the old screw is damaged or missing. First, a pilot hole should be made that's slightly smaller than the diameter of this screw before driving it with a screwdriver. This is also a thread-forming type of self-tapping screw, and it does not have a pointed tip. It is compatible with specific products from major brands like Ariens, Craftsman, Husqvarna, Murray, Poulan, Ryobi, and Weed Eater. This part is sold individually and is a genuine OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer.

A V-belt is responsible for transmitting energy. It is made from a thick and sturdy rubber material. It features grooves for improved traction and measures ½ x 95-1/2. A worn-down v-belt can lead to inefficient energy loss, and therefore poor performance. Installing this v-belt requires pliers and a wrench. First, the spark plug wire needs to be removed. Then, position the mower deck to the lowest possible level. Move the machine's blade engagement level to OFF. Remove the belt found from the engine pulley. Don't forget to take out the bow-tie pins and blade engagement cable as well. Remove the bolt from the pulley cover and loosen the nuts found at the idler pulley. Put the new belt and then tighten the nuts on the idler pulleys. The deck can now be re-assembled to its original position.

This weld nut is used for lawn mowers, tillers, and tractors to hold certain components together for high durability. These nuts can be found on various parts of lawn equipment and are distinguished by a small hole in the middle and a glossy golden color. Unlike typical nuts, they cannot be added or removed using a hammer or screwdriver. Sometimes a weld nut can become damaged through use, while other times one of them can go missing. Operating machinery with a missing weld nut can be dangerous since parts aren't held together as tightly as expected. In some cases, the weld nut can become rusty and will need to be replaced. If the weld nut is still in place, an angle grinder can be used to remove it. The nut can be replaced through two different welding techniques including projective or capacitive discharge welding. This weld nut is designed for use in many lawn mowers, tillers, and lawn tractors by Weed Eater, Husqvarna, Craftsman, and Poulan. It is a genuine OEM component that comes as an individual part directly from the manufacturer. Welding equipment and other basic tools will be needed to replace this weld nut on lawn and garden equipment.

This replacement extension spring is a vital part of the lawn tractor's blade system that helps to activate the blade break. This is useful when the operator wants to continue driving their lawn tractor but doesn't need the blade to continue rotating. Many lawn tractors include this as a safety precaution and require the operator to break the blade before they can drive in reverse. Extension springs are built to last a long time and very rarely break, but the coils may begin to separate from prolonged use. When this happens, the spring will no longer work as well and the operator will feel it start to give. Replacing the extension spring is fairly straightforward but will require you to remove the lower deck. Using a wrench to remove the spring can help but may not be necessary. This OEM extension spring is a high-quality replacement part sourced from its original manufacturer and is compatible with Ryobi, Jonsered, Husqvarna, Poulan, and Weed Eater lawn tractors. It ships individually.

This clutch cable kit is an authentic OEM replacement part for a riding lawn mower or tractor. The clutch cable connects to the idler arm located in the lower deck of a mower and allows the operator to manually engage or disengage the blades. The clutch cable runs up through the steering block and into the front display so that the operator can easily access the clutch. If a clutch cable becomes jammed or tenses up, it will be difficult to depress. If the operator tries to depress the clutch cable without realizing that it is jammed, the clutch cable will snap. The most obvious sign of a snapped clutch cable is that the clutch gives little resistance and the blade cannot be engaged. To change a clutch cable, use a socket set to remove the fuel tank and gain access to the cable. A pair of needle nose pliers is also recommended. This replacement part is compatible with Weed Eater, Husqvarna, Ryobi, and Poulan appliances and comes sourced from its original manufacturer. This part includes a clutch cable and a zip tie.
