This washer is a genuine MTD replacement part for lawn and garden appliances that are operated by small engines, such as lawn tractors, snowblowers, chipper shredders, leaf blowers, and lawn mowers. The purpose of a washer is to protect and insulate nuts, bolts, and other types of fasteners, preventing these fasteners from gradually loosening. A washer will have to be replaced in the event that it is lost or misplaced, a common occurrence given its extremely small size and its ability to slide off without calling any attention to its absence. Other reasons to replace a washer could include general wear and tear or visible damage in the form of erosion, bending, or cracking metal as a result of overuse or overexposure. If a washer is subject to any of this kind of damage, it should be replaced immediately to avoid nuts and bolts coming loose and separating the materials that they protect and hold together. Remember that gloves must always be worn when handling, repairing, and operating outdoor equipment. This washer part is compatible with the brands MTD, Yard Machines, Cub Cadet, and Yard Man.
This grease plug is a genuine OEM replacement part sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is found on snowblowers and other outdoor yard machines on the gearcase assembly, which houses the auger gear. The grease plug seals the oil port on the gearbox. This keeps lubrication inside the gearbox and is the access point for adding more when needed. If this plug is lost, the gearbox's oil could leak out, and contaminants could get into the gearbox.Lubricate the contents of the gearbox before installing the new grease plug. Locate and remove the two screws on the side to drain the gearbox. Install the grease plug in the bottom. Refill the oil using the vent hole. Continue filling until oil is coming out the top side screw. Close everything back up, and the machine is ready for use. To prepare the equipment for long storage, remove the grease plug and check the oil level. If it is not to the top, add more lubricant before sealing the grease plug.This grease plug is made of durable black molded plastic and is sold as an individual unit. It is compatible with snowblowers and snow throwers manufactured by Ryobi, MTD, Yard Machines, Troy-Bilt, Bolens, Yard-Man, Cub Cadet, and Husky.
