Husqvarna TS354XD Deck Removal, Snow Blade "install".

Just removing deck for the first time and attaching snow blade.
Mower is the Husqvarna TS 354XD with 56 hours.
Deck is the Husqvarna ClearCut™ Fabricated Cutting Deck 54"
Blade is the 48" GT Dozer Blade.

Your effort is appreciated. I have the TS 348XD and the process is the same.

I have the same mower as well…just cracked the deck (support piece under the chute)…lifetime warranty so I’ll be bringing in the deck to a dealer swap everything out to the new deck…never pulled the deck off before so this video was perfect…looks easy enough

[@cornelc.4895]

You did a good job going back to the sway bar or what ever is called, it was exactly what I needed to figure out how install the deck back after I removed the snow plow. I wish I took a video when I took it off before the winter as you advised 😉, and of course you can't do it without a good cigar 😊👍!

Great video! Was a big help in getting my deck back on after removing my snow thrower!!

[@mazdarattiman]

If you notice the notch design on the front hook, removal of the front wishbone nut is not necessary. Drop, remove rear hookups, slide deck forward a bit to slip wishbone out.

[@djlansing2724]

Thx. Dropping deck tonight & was thinking it looked like front mount could slip out through the slotted part

[@morgan9164]

Awesome video, helped me change my belt today. Thanks Brian!

[@CharlieKellyEsq]

This is exactly what I'm trying to do!!! That first bolt is awful, I thought I was doing it wrong because I couldn't get it off without extreme force

[@terrymclaughlin371]

Nice man! This was very helpful for what I needed in info.. thanks for the video!

[@gobluevictors]

Fantastic work. Thanks for doing this.

[@Dave-df1vu]

after i take my deckk off for the winter i usally wash it and put a good coat of carnuba wax and store it inside

[@Timsengraving]

Thank for making this video!!

[@stevestanley5183]

I used a rope around both wheels it helps moving it around

[@allenpoe7372]

Nice job blowing off the removal of the sway bar, after saying you'd be showing it.

[@bferg23]

Sorry about that. The sway bar just comes out with removal of cotter pin that I pointed to, and then once the deck is out of the way you can slide the bar out of the hole that it seats in. I also talk about it at 7:51 of the vid. This guy shows the install a bit better at about 10:40 of this vid kzbin.info/www/bejne/j3XTo5WVmJJ7e9U

[@xbigp]

Thanks

[@johnanderson1149]

Great video. I have a yt42ls. i wonder why the armor plates are on the bottom of the deck on the discharge side, and top of deck on the other side?

[@johncleaver4245]

You should let your mower cool down before hosing down…hot bearings ( spindle) + Water is a good way to stuff your bearings.

[@jasonbridle7931]

How many height settings on the dozer blade using that handlebar? Any intermediate positions? Wondering how it would be spreading triple mix on grass

[@bferg23]

Sorry, I don't have this machine anymore so I can't go check. I have moved to a BX-2380. From my recollection, I only had up or down on the settings, but you can hold it at any height. I would say its prob not the best for spreading triple mix.

[@michaelluke5878]

Drop the cigar bit, otherwise good video.

[@jonmeans5289]

Where do I put the other end of the anti sway bar, im trying to replace a bent one.

[@bferg23]

The 90 degree end goes in the frame near the transaxle towards the rear left tire. The front part with the cotter pin hole goes towards the mower deck and attaches on the right ("passenger") side with a washer and cotter pin. At about 10:40 of this video this guy shows it not too bad. kzbin.info/www/bejne/j3XTo5WVmJJ7e9U

[@TodayinKansasCity]

Any reason you couldn't leave the deck on there? I'd think the extra weight would help.

[@CharlieKellyEsq]

You have to remove the deck for that anchor point on the front of the mower

[@bferg23]

Good question, I removed for more clearance for snow while pushing snow. Depending on your environment you could possibly leave it on.

[@bferg23]

Wow the quality really downgraded.

[@johnstratton5637]

i was wondering how do you install the mower deck on this type of lawn tractor Husqvarna TS 354XD (54") 24HP Kawasaki Garden Tractor

[@jim-ed3zt]

The sniffing gets a bit annoying

[@bferg23]

Sorry about that. I cringe when I hear it too.

[@JohnSmith-ug5ci]

That is a terrible design for deck mounting and removal. That front double nut is such a bad idea. Now once off you have to fiddle with adjustment over and over until you get it right. NOT GOOD! I have a simplicity brand and the deck removal and installation is so easy. It can be done in less than 1 minute with absolutely no tools. Husqvarna needs to get on board.

[@olga1738]

You don’t need to unscrew double nut on the front to remove the deck.

[@ac7fd]

it's not, he should just do it properly. the two parts he zip tied up can be removed just like what he calls swaybar. It's really easy to remove and mount, no different than any other name brand mower.
