I have a neighbor and like clockwork every 3 years, throws out his self propelled mower, blower, weed eater, etc ( usually Toro bought new, small yard, garage kept) . I missed the fist 2 but saw the 3rd on the curb. I asked him what’s wrong with it? Said won’t start and the blade is dull . Did a Mustie, cleaned the carb and sharpen the blade. Had it for 8 years now 👍🏼. Was throwing out another years later and told him I could fix it for him, said no just easier to go buy a new $400 mower ! So I always look at his curb on garbage day. 😆

[@wp9409]

Some years back my son found a Snapper 2000GX(?) that a local guy had left at the curb. Hauled it home and we were able to get the motor started, which was a Kohler V-twin, but the trans had gone out (an Eaton hydrostatic). It was my first foray into one of those and eventually we were able to source a part to fix it. He mowed lawns in the neighborhood with it for a few years, eventually trading up to a similar size Gravely. The biggest failing I recall with that model Snapper was the steering gear arrangement. If you turned hard enough on the wheel the gears would click loudly and disengage. I believe the fix entailed replacing that assembly, but he had traded it off before we figured that out. It was mounted up in a tight spot and the cause was not evident. Enjoying the video, I think you're working with a better model than we did.

That's an '80's vintage mower. All the Snapper units of that era use the drive disc arrangement including the machine you are working on, the Rear Engine Rider and the self-propelled walk behind, of which i have one. Excellent machines...doesn't need to be scrapped.

It looks like the parts from a snapper rear engine rider are interchangeable with this larger tractor. The mower deck, the holder bars for the bagger attachment and the transmission-friction disk set up is very similar to those rear engine riders.

Those friction drives are quite robust, I have a push mower that was used commercially for overgrown areas that large mowers couldn't get to. It has thousands of hours on it with no breakdowns or adjustments.

[@artemartem1134]

Mustie I didn't see you point this out in the video but these mowers have an adjustable steering column like a car. The plastic piece on the bottom of the wheel above the dash pushes down, and you can slide the wheel further or closer to you. then you release that part you pushed down and it locks in place. Very cool for such an old machine to have that feature! Also I have the deck eject cover for this mower if you want it, in perfect shape. I could drop it off to you. let me know!

What surprises me about the eccentric bearing locks is they are designed to be used to lock a shaft that goes in one direction since you lock the collar by first mating the bearing and collar. Then turn the locking collar in the direction of rotation and finally hitting the blind hole a few times to lock the collar in the same direction. Then you lock the set screw. Since this shaft can and does turn theoretically both directions that kind of defeats the locking part. But since you are having such a hard time disassembling the bearings I guess it really does not matter that much, since they did lock. Nice work fella for sure.

Reminds me of an older version of my old, but rebuilt Snapper 1550LX Hydro 41in! Saved it from the scrap yard from the previous owner. I love Snappers!

When my 1st wifes Snapper broke, I divorced her.
