This replacement part is a hex bolt. It is a genuine replacement part made by MTD. Hex bolts are named because they are shaped like a hexagon and are different from the regular circle-shaped bolts. These parts are able to hold other parts secure and in place so that everything can operate as needed. A new hex bolt might be needed if the current ones are damaged in any way. It is possible that these bolts become stripped or lodged in place over time due to normal wear and tear and should be replaced. The repair should be fairly easy, only requiring a screwdriver or pliers if the previous part is stuck. Be sure the engine is completely powered down before beginning this repair. This bolt is sold individually. Be sure to purchase the correct amount as many appliances require more than one. This is a genuine OEM replacement part sourced directly from the manufacturer.

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.

The reasons for failures include the materials, the amount of weight put on the wheels, the amount of use, and the type of use. Changing a wheel is simple but requires the appropriate parts.

The jam nut can be used in different locations within various types of lawn and garden machines. It is often used as a type of locknut that is jammed against a standard nut.

Owners may find that they eventually need to replace the jam nuts that came with their equipment.

Mowers are manufactured to last for about 500 hours of running, which breaks down to about 19-20 years for the typical non-commercial user. Commercial mowers, which see a great deal more use, are designed to last for 1000 hours of service, which is about 10 years. To extend the life of a lawn mower to its full potential, there are certain simple preventative routines a user can follow, including annual oil and filter changes. One important routine maintenance ritual for mowers that is often overlooked is changing the air filter, something that should be done at least annually. When the mower chugs, cycles, or simply will not start, the first thing to check is the air filter. When replacing the filter, make sure to use a genuine OEM certified replacement part like this one, which is manufactured according to the specification of the original factory filter. This filter is compatible with Bolens, Yard-Man, Troy-Bilt, Yard Machines, and MTD.
