1. REMOVAL
Removal of the blade brake clutch is not required for
transmission removal; however, if the mower has been in

inspection. Replace the belt if it is worn or cracked.

).
3. Put a protective pad on the workbench. Turn the mower
upside down and rest the recoil starter on the workbench
pad. Position the handlebars on the floor and secure the
mower.
4. Remove the rear scroll (P. 12-4
).
5. Remove the cotter pin, washer, and pin securing the clutch
cable to the change lever.
6. Loosen the two lock nuts and disconnect the cable from
the handle. Leave the cable connected at the
transmission.
7. Cut the tie straps securing the cables to the handle pipe.
8. Insert a screwdriver or rod into the hole in the transmission
cable bracket, and pivot the transmission to remove the
belt from the pulley. Disconnect the drive belt tension
spring from the cable bracket.

ratchet return springs, and wheel covers.

axle.
