Rotary Cutter Gearbox Troubleshooting Guidebook
Is your mower leaking, creaking or in any other case executing improperly? You’ve got arrive to the right area.
Study under for the most widespread problems with rotary cutter gearboxes and their answers (from swift and dirty, to expert).
Leaking Base Seal:
If you have wrapped some baling or fencing wire around your output shaft and blown the seal, the skilled thing to do is to replace the seal.
If your output seal is intact, and you are capable to get ID, OD and thickness measurements (in millimeters), most bearing homes can buy you up a generic double-lip seal that will get you back again up-and-operating. If not, give us a phone and we can assist you type out what you want.
A dental decide is the least difficult way to eliminate the outdated seal before pressing in the new one particular.
If you’re fortunate ample to have a slow-leak, the swift and dirty approach is to run automotive-type grease in the gearbox until the new seal will come in. Be sure to check and include grease more usually than you would with oil, as this is NOT a specialist mend.
Damaged Output Shaft:
Uh oh. You hit some thing that did not go. The great information is that the output shaft on most gearboxes is relatively effortless to exchange. The undesirable information is… it is hardly ever an isolated failure.
The initial thing to do is to just take aside your gearbox and assess the entire extent of the hurt. If it is truly just the output shaft, you should be capable to change it out, no issue. The output shafts begin at about $70 and go up in price depending on the dimension of the gearbox.
Even so, in most instances, the bearings ($twenty/ea), seals ($10/ea) and equipment-set ($70) will also normally just take a beating. If you might be unlucky, the output cap ($eighty) will also endure some damage.
In this case, it is generally less expensive to change the gearbox. Assess the price of parts to the price of an whole, new, warrantied gearbox. Often, even pros have to know when to contact it a day.
I Want to Change my Input Shaft:
If you are fatigued of modifying shear pins or searching back and looking at that your mower has not been chopping, you may want to put in a slip-clutch pto shaft (Of course, we 
sell these way too).
This normally requires setting up a 540-style, six-spline input shaft ($eighty five) on your mower’s gearbox.
Fortunate for you, we did a create-up on our blog. It truly is known as “How to change the enter shaft on your rotary cutter gearbox”.
My Gearbox is Groaning/Creaking:
“Groaning”, “creaking”, or “popping” all sound type-of similar over-the-mobile phone. The ideal factor to do is to disassemble your gearbox and consider a search at the gears and bearings. The problem will typically present alone in the way of broken/missing gear teeth, toasted gears (like that image on our house page), or blown bearings.
If every little thing appears typical, try out altering the equipment-mesh. This is done with the mylar “gaskets” that sit between the principal gearbox scenario and the enter/output caps. Try introducing or getting rid of some of these spacers until finally your gears have approximately 1/eight”-one/four” of totally free perform. Experts can purchase replacements ($1-2) in different thicknesses, but we recommend the rapid and dirty strategy of cutting your personal out of a sheet of mylar.
Do not forget to re-seal the gearbox with RTV right after you’ve located the appropriate mixture. Even though they are known as “gaskets”, they won’t seal your gearbox on their very own.
