13AM77LS058 Lawn Tractor - Instructions

Removed the retaining screws on both belt covers and replaced them with the new ones i purchased.

I wish this was longer...it's only about 6", barely enough to have the oil flow past the metal plate of the riding lawnmower. I'm going to figure out a way to make a permanent extension something like this video would be SO much better https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9ZVoeqr6R8&t=79s

Removed battery, then battery hanger brackets.
Removed the tension spring from under side of seat. That was a little tuff to do. put a long phillips screw driver through transmission pulley.
put a 7/8 box wrench on pulley nut and removed it. took old belt off and installed new one. Reversed order of removal.
Getting the tension spring back into the bracket hole was a little tricky. I used a pair of long needle nose pliers to re install the spring.
cut my yard and I'm a happy camper !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Removed one 1/2" bolt to remove old part .
Slipped new part in place. put bolt in open loop and tightened.

Put one side in bottom first and you have to slightly twist the lens to get the other clips to pop in.

Had to pull stove out of the way for easier replacement of the hood switch. Exact replacement part was simple to change.

The repair was a very easy.

We took our 30 plus year mixer apart. I removed the old grease. There was some crumbly looking grease in the main housing gear section where the nylon gear is located. It looked like it had flour mixed in it. Not certain. Removed as best possible all old grease and applied 6 oz. of new Benalene grease to all of the gears. Now it does not make the slight howl sound.
