Hey guy's
I'm new to this site so if this has been addressed all ready you can re direct me. My mower deck has a slight wobble in the center pulley or spindle. I was attempting to remove the pulley from the spindle and can't figure out how to get 2 wrenches in the on the top 2 nuts of the pulley/spindle. Is there a special tool for this or am I just over looking something really obvious? |

You should be able to hold the blade with one hand and unscrew the grease zirk/top bolt with the other. The pully should slide off of the shaft.

The bottom of the two nuts isn't a nut, really...it's part of the pulley and is just there so you have something to hold the spindle with so you can loosen the nut. I've never had any of those come off easy. An impact wrench will make quick work of them, though.

I did try holding the blade with a board jammed in but the nut on the blade came off instead, but ill try again. In any ones experience does the pully warp before the spindle or do they both go at once,? the blade seams to be ballanced under the deck and the bearings are smoothe but the pulley definitly has a wobble in the rotation. any help would be great. And thanks to all who replied all ready

That's because you didn't hold the hex on the pulley. As I stressed in my previous post, the removal of that nut is very difficult without an impact wrench.
The only thing that's going to warp the pulley is something hitting it. It will not warp in normal operation. You will have to determine whether the pulley is warped, loose on the spindle (unlikely), the bearing/spindle assembly is loose in the cups (very likely) or if the bearing is worn out. Before you take it all apart you can wiggle the pulley and see if the whole spindle has play and determine what is going on. |

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.
