Default QA42A with Play in Sprocket Assembly

Have a QA42A on a Cub Cadet 1650. Everything was running fine until it hit something in the drive (piece of wood) clearing 3 inches of snow. One of the fins on the auger got bent not a big deal bent it back and the auger spun freely again but I noticed the Sprocket Assembly Mounting has play in it and the shaft transfer seems to be freely moving which in turn moves the Chain sprocket as the chain moves when the PTO is engaged.

Is there any way to tighten this up to stop the right to left movement of the chain sprocket? I am attaching a picture in the hopes it will make more sense. Big snow storm supposedly on the way to our area. Any advise and guidance is appreciated.

Thanks

Cleon

mine moves from side to side, but after tightening up the chain with the bolts on each side of the bracket, it seemed to help. It was so bad it ground down the zerk on the left. Put a new one on and its not touching it.
Someone else advise you could tighten to push back the left side a bit more than the right to keep the sprocket from traveling out.

Looks like metal shavings all over the place. I would suggest you looking into the situation and find out what is wrong.

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.
