I was wondering if anyone ever tried to rewind an electric clutch for the pto on lawn mowers. I tried yesterday but must have messed up because it had continuity from the positive to the body of the clutch. Which its not supposed to. But I'm going to retry it. The wire is only a few bucks. But I was wondering if anyone has ever done this and have been successful.

If you want to go that way I'd try an electric motor rebuild shop. If it was me I'd replace the clutch. These guys make some nice stuff and they have good prices.

I used 24 gauge wire. Bout the same size. I thought maybe trying this first and save a buck would be good. Plus gain some experience. I found a new coil for 100 bucks on eBay. So if this doesn't work then I'll just get that. But I wanted to see if anyone has tried this.

Do you know that the wire used in coils has a special coating on it so that it doesn't short against itself? You can't just use any ol' wire.

Just a FYI I asked the local motor shop about re-winding the field coil for a PTO and the price was more than a new PTO. As Jon said the wire has a special coating on it. You would need the same size, type and length of wire to make it work properly. I'm not saying don't give it a shot just trying to give you some more info. If you decide to give it a try I will try to help as far as info is concerned. I used to have some contacts in the electric motor re-building industry back when I was in the quarry business.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
