[@linmcdon1662]

This is the BEST instruction video demonstrating this subject. Thank you loads.

[@Chocaluvr]

Thank you 😁

[@Hooverdarnit]

Just bought a used Murry lawn tractor to mount a snow plow blade on. I don't need it to mow grass, so I want to take it off. This video is just what I was looking for to assist me tomorrow when I take the mower deck off. Thank you Dear.

Ma'am you are the queen of the silver dollar!!! Like others I took my deck off in April and it's now August and you have the only video that shows (and by a woman I might add) how to remove the deck and basically re-install it too. Much appreciated I liked and subscribed. Keep em coming. Thank you again. 😊

[@Chocaluvr]

Thank you! 😊

[@matirehman1721]

Proud of you . What a good job. I was expecting the removal of belt and use the news.

[@MrRoberth321]

I want to add my thanks. I also really enjoy how much you don’t talk but just do it. I can’t stand the talkers who’d take 18 minutes to show what just did. I had taken the deck off two summers ago. I have it back on but had completely forgotten about that connecting and tensioning spring.

[@artschulte1897]

Thanks for your video You made it very simple and explained what to take off each section

[@spoiledballotpapers3277]

Wow ! What a clear and concise video. No waffle - exactly what I needed to see.

[@dawillmc1]

Detail quick and to the point. Great video thank you

[@jimmytoon7377]

Thanks for the great guide , helped a lot with my Murray.

[@jonbradley4789]

That was cool. This is my first deck removal vid. Thank you.

[@silentstrike123]

TY. Only video I found that happened to show the spring that is connected to the deck lowering lever

[@shannonbrooks8834]

Thank you so much ! I got a mower for $20 bucks and it runs. The bad thing was how too put deck back on. You got the only video with the identical mower I have. Thanks again

[@Kingknitemare73]

Great video 👌🙂

Excellent...

[@eduardosegura1595]

Hello, i saw your video from chile, i have a tractor that's similar to yours and i don't have the serial number. Could you tell me the model of your tractor? So i could buy some repair parts.... Whats the model of the belt you installed in this video?. Thanks.

[@gman_223]

Great video

[@m998hmmwv7]

That was awesome

[@ouiroc]

Very nice video I need a diagram of the routing on the deck my belt broke so I had no reference

[@Chocaluvr]

@@ouiroc I’ll look to see if I have one and let you know.

[@Chocaluvr]

@@ouiroc I have it but I will give you a link to the manual. This is the manual to my Murray. Look at pages 30 and 31 for the diagram. You can also download it. There are other manuals to different Murray models at this link also. www.manualslib.com/manual/108753/Murray-405000x8e.html#manual

[@punchogunter2362]

Get a piece of carpet, place it under the deck and after its dropped and disconnected you can slide it out, it's better than trying 2 push it 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@Chocaluvr]

Thanks. I think that’s a great idea. The problem with me is I have a torn rotator cuff in one shoulder and a partial tear of the biceps in the other shoulder, and pulling on the heavy deck or anything heavy will flare the pain for days. 😪

[@punchogunter2362]

@@Chocaluvr yea a guy taught me that 1 about the carpet.He said even if your on concrete or the grass it's a little easier to slide out from that position 👍

[@cindynapoli7530]

Great video thanks but i think i did sonething wrong. All together . But its engaged when i turn it on, without pushing the engage handle forward. Can you tell me what i did wrong?

[@Chocaluvr]

@@cindynapoli7530 it’s hard to tell without seeing it. Did you disengaged the spring from the blade lever? If you did, did you reattach it? Is it in the right hole when you were putting it back? If this is not the problem, then it could be a bad blade safety switch. I have another video that shows you how to check the safety switches. Check video “Murray riding lawnmower will not crank or click-How to troubleshoot.”

[@cindynapoli7530]

@@Chocaluvr thanks I put spring back in 2nd hole not sure if thats the one it was in, then released the level handle. ill try to put it back in lock,, disconnect spring, reconnect it then release lever lock. then i'll watch your other video but it was engaging before I touched it. thankyou I will have to figure out where I wemt wrong. But it's cutting the grass just fine.

[@gspiatti249]

Have you ever removed the deck belt tensioner assembly?

[@Chocaluvr]

@@gspiatti249 No, I haven’t had to replace mine.

1998 Murry 42506x92 Riding Mower AND Tecumseh 17 HP - Models OHV17 AND 204606B (H) AND starts and stalls out 5 seconds later Any HELP Appreciated? Thanks Jasper

[@Chocaluvr]

I would start with the simple stuff. If it starts, then dies, it is most likely fuel related. Get rid of the fuel in the tanks and use fresh fuel. If it still dies with fresh gas, then check your fuel lines and filter. Ethanol will clog your fuel line and fuel filter. Replace the fuel line and filter. Next would be your carburetor. It could be a clogged carburetor. You can clean it but it’s best to replace the carburetor on an old machine.

[@Out-of-UTube]

Hello Chocaluver, THANK YOU for responding and the help!!! I tried all of the options that you mentioned such as replaced fuel, filter, and cleaned the carburetor but she still has the same problem that it starts and a few seconds later she dies as if she is not getting gas. I have a petcock installed and checked fuel flow through the filter and it flowed just fine. In fact, that is how we easily drained the old fuel and used a non-detergent fuel (Recommended by local fuel supply company) and same results. After reading additional information it could be the Fuel Shut-off solenoid attached to the carburetor or better yet, as you mentioned (THANK YOU AGAIN) the carburetor. We are down to the carburetor which has resulted in a challenging search as they seem to cost about a Fin (5 Bucks) to a C Note (100 Bucks). PLEASE provide your thoughts on a price range for a decent carburetor? Fifteen bucks seems cheap and may not last and a $110.00 dollars at Jacks is on the high end. Please know that we plan on keeping her as we believe she still has some service life in her. Thank you again for all of your help! Jasper

Hello. My front part of deck is always lower than back. How do I fix it so front and back is a little higher

[@Chocaluvr]

Most mowers have the front slightly lower than the back about 1/4 to 1/2 inch. It prevents the back from recutting the front. If it’s a big difference, you would have to lower the mower deck like I showed on the video. There’s a bracket with a knob holding the deck to the mower on each side that can be loosened. Once you have the mower on a leveled ground losen the knob, the deck will adjust itself on a leveled ground, then you can retighten the knob and lift the deck back up. It’s hard to explain without showing you.

[@fredeerickbays]

no it is not u never show how to remove the tensioning spring for the drive belt for this u get a thumbs down

[@Chocaluvr]

@@fredeerickbays You must have a different mower than the one I’m showing here. What you see here is all there is! I also gave you a thumbs down for your comment.
