Description

How much different if any would that be to do on a 2015 husqvarna built craftsman with the RS800?

[@lukeamundson7881]

The exact same cvt

Why wasn't the dust cover installed when new from the factory ?

[@JeffinTD]

Not sure if it would be a plus or a minus. Might reduce debris buildup, but also make it more difficult to blow out with an air nozzle or even a leaf blower.

Never mind a leafblower. If homosexual special rights are not respected and affirned it doesn’t matter what Craftsman does !

I can commend they've updated the design and are making parts available, but it should cost the customer less. I'm working on a 3d print fix for mine. Original one failed and 150 for a replacement seems too much for a design flaw. I guess that's what I get for buying a plastic transmission.

​@@LethologicaGaming I agree. It's not ok to leave that many moving parts & levers susceptible to interference from clippings packing in there, but not have access to clean them. It's huuuuuge design flaw to have to drop the transmission every year or two just to clean it, and to add insult to injury, they don't readily admit it so you would know what to fix. Instead they sell repair kits like the driven kit, knowing full well that the usual cleaning that automatically comes with that type of drop-the-transmission repair is really what is fixing the problem
