Changing clutch release bearing / throw-out bearing without a press
I have the Wild Badger 4 in 1 (40v) and I can’t figure out how to get the head off to replace the string? Thanks!
TWIMC a handled torx driver of screwdriver type, or a torx in a smitty, of size TBD, is needed to get the clutch drum off. A torx bit in a drill hex extender won't fit.
Mine has been good, it had needed a fuel line replacement after 12 years and then it needed a pull rope change and last year the bump head started letting the string out to east, so the release in it had gave out... but I had already stopped using it for the most part because I now have the Badger. But I do know some people have lots of problems with the Troybilts
I'll never buy another goddamned TrashBilt.
made the mistake of installing the bump head without the hardware, is there a way to remove it ?
That bar that holds the head on will detach from the machine itself ( about 2 feet up the bar from the bump head ) remove that and you will notice the inside shaft will turn when you move the bum head. find something to stop that from turning and then gently try to remove the bump head, if you put a lot of pressure you run the chance of further damage..... but it can take some strain as well.
whats that wire in the middle called mine broke. tension wire?
I am not sure but you could call lazy bot and tell them that it is the wire thats in the middle of the foot rest, right under the front on the inside. and they would know what it is. Plus your chair might be covered under their warranty
I decided to check to see if my unused 15yr old saw would do a long enough mitre cut. I flicked spider Webb's off and was checking the mitre adjust when it jammed and I couldn't budge it using all my force. Tried to fathom out why but could find any clues. Found your CZcams and followed your instructions . So I first sprayed the main bolt and round the movement slit with wd40. Just check for any movement, and wow it just worked. Very surprised. Thank you very much .
You're welcome. Glad the video helped, better still I am glad that you got the old saw working again
Thanks! I picked up the 2nd version (model 315.11720) at a garage sale and wanted to give it a good cleaning. I realized the front roller had spring tension, but not that it clicked back into a recess notch. Good info!
You're welcome.
8:04 Only thing I'd do different would be to cut the Solenoid connector off the old Carburetor and splice it onto the new carb's wiring with heat-shrink instead of cutting & replacing the connector from the mower's wiring to make the splice. Both ways work. I just like all my OEM electrical connectors to remain in place. Nice Video.🤑
Thank you so much! Your video unlike most others shows this cool trick that worked quite well for me. Thank you for saving me lots of frustration with my spool that wouldn’t work.
You're welcome I am glad the video helped.
Great video Help!!!! my tilt is stiff now ,it use to be smooth .now is a lil stiff to go up and down only....
Grease or sewing machine oil might fix it just be careful no to get it onto the electrical contacts
Thank you, you saved the day!
You're welcome, glad the video helped
I have a 26cc is there supposed to be a spring in the bumper head
good lord put some rubber gloves on
After my husband had his meltdown over his chair and left the house, I oiled the moving parts and it’s working fine. 😊Thank you for your video.
Nice.
On my electric chair the foot rest get bound up on the right side about 3/4 of the way down
You sir, are an absolute life saver. Replaced a brand new line and it still leaked, tried this and it’s dry as a bone now.
Thanks. I am glad it helped
Of limited value because camera locations are inadequate.
This is true
Great job!! Thanks for the video. Where did you find the parts to rebuild the unit. I’m having trouble locating them? Do you have the part or parts numbers
I used the model number ( it is under the hood ) and searched around on ebay and other sites but I did find that in this case I could just get the parts from Troybult at the same price ( give or take a little ) and that way I know I have the proper part. here is the site www.troybilt.com/en_US/service-and-parts
@@fromcarstocomputers7261 I called them and they told me they didn’t sell the parts . She must have been a rookie?
I did find them though . Thanks for the info!!!
Excellent! Exactly what I was looking for. And , short and to the point. 👍👍
Thanks. But take note that the video is flipped so it looks like I turn the screwdriver the wrong way
Great job of explaining it and we normal folk enjoyed it 😊
Thanks. I am glad you liked it.
Best overall trans ever made and the cheapest to fix Back in the best days in America history, like the vs units also Folks you think the new crap is great tell you see the cost 💲 to fix or replace it 😢😢😢
you were especially right about the part where my head burst into flames.... gonna try this tomorrow, thanks boss.
Maybe it will be a good day.......... but sometimes good days are far apart. either way try to make the best of them
Good video. But the camera placement wasn't ideal. A tripod with a gooseneck would allow for better placement. Great information though. I have a problem on my breaks where the rotor isn't spinning. I was hoping the teeth in the rotor stripped. But no suck luck. The tractor runs great forward and reverse. Will climb up a barn door if I wanted.
Yes, the breaking system on these are not the best. And yes I know my angels are not the best but I have been just using a Panasonic lumix DMC-Zs19 camera because it's what I have. ( and not it needs a new battery ) but I might purchase a couple of GH4 or a couple of go-pro 9 cameras or something along those lines in the future
Thank you!!!
You're welcome
My lazy boy pops when I’m rocking?
Look at the feet of it and make sure that they are not pulling apart. You can re-glue it or use a 1 1/2 to 2 inch long wood screw ( Sheetrock screw ) after you drill out for it and or course there are other things that can course the pop as well, but this is one that gets overlooked
Thank you.
You're welcome
If I forgot to put that nut on … am I screwed? Lol
Great video You're lucky you can buy the individual parts. Here in Canada they don't list them. Would you be so kind as to provide links to the parts you bought & where to get them.
I searched around on ebay and other sites but I did find that in this case I could just get the parts from Troybult at the same price ( give of take a little ) and that way I know I have the proper part. you can find your mower model number under the hood cover or under the seat if not under the hood. here is the site www.troybilt.com/en_US/service-and-parts
hello, the spring/wire at 2:05 is broke on mine, got any idea where i can get one or how long is it to make my own, thanks
This might help upholsteryresource.com/book/export/html/169
Thank you! I have this video bookmarked in favorites and pull it up every spring. It saves me lots of frustration!
You're welcome. I am glad the video helps
thank you. thank you I couldnt figure out how to replace the string
You're welcome
how do we add more string? I am used to the kind where I just put in another cartridge but I cant figure out how to open up this one. thanks
I see by your second message that you found the re-string video before I could reply.
Video was much appreciated. Thank you sir.
You're welcome, I am glad it helped
Extremely good information. For me this is very useful information.
I am having trouble removing the plastic filler plug
You could try Pliers but you might break the plug and then that would be a real mess. Yes I think they should have used a metal plug
@@fromcarstocomputers7261 that's what I'm afraid of, barking the plug with pliers, sprayed some wd40 today to see if get easier to remove, e see everybody removing by hand
Great video I've got one that's locked like yours I bought it for $25
What I really need is a solution when I am stranded in the middle of nowhere where there is no cell phone signal, no one else around, and my car battery is dead.

good job

Just installed a new carb on my lt 1042. Wont start, not getting fuel. Put a new pump in and lines. Selonoid clicks over, idk im at a lost
Make sure it will run at all, give it a shot of "starting fluid and see if it will start" if so then you know you have firing. See it could be getting fuel but not firing and that could be many things, but it could be a bad kill switch like the one under the seat or the blade engage or the neutral gear one if any of these are acting up then it can stop the firing
@@fromcarstocomputers7261 after close examination, vacuum hose from the valve cover to the air filter housing is busted and there's a lock washer on the ground wire, wonder
@@rebelyankeesshow5686 Looks like you're well on the way to fixing it.
@@fromcarstocomputers7261 nope lol replaced the vacuum hose, took the lock washer off the ground still nothing. The choke plate was hitting a jet in the carb. I finally got it loose but its still not moving as it ahould
@@rebelyankeesshow5686 You may want to try and return that carb
Bubbles in coolant bad head gasket?
The head gasket was good the system can let out a small amount of bubblse when it is getting a fill up ( from air in the hoses a such )... but this did have a leak in the heater core as well and I changed it out soon after this video was made, so yes the system was not flowing just right because of the leak
It worked thanks bud!
You're welcome
