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. This genuine OEM part is compatible with machines sold by MTD, Yard Man, Craftsman, and Yard Machine.

This extension spring is a genuine OEM replacement part sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is used on many lawn mowers and other lawn and garden machines. Extension springs are used on the deck handle to lift the deck up and down. It attaches to the deck on one end and the deck handle on the other. As the handle is lifted up and down, the spring provides tension that holds the deck to the machine while at the same time stretching to allow the up and down movement. If the spring is not functioning correctly, the deck may not go up and down as smoothly or at all. Springs don't normally break; however, over time with repeated use, they may stretch beyond use or rust and not stretch at all. Routine maintenance and visual inspection will reveal this and repairs can be made before damage to the mower occurs.Extension springs cannot be repaired, they have to be replaced. Make sure the mower is turned off and parked on a level surface before beginning. The machine needs to be cool to prevent burns. Always wear gloves when replacing parts.This extension spring is made of heavy duty metal and is sold as an individual part. It is compatible with riding mowers, lawn mowers, and other machinery manufactured by MTD, Craftsman, and others.
