    Service & Maintenance Question posted November 21, 2018 by douglas peterson 
    Question:
    I have a Husqvarna 2348LS mower. 10 yrs old. Both steering draglinks worn, so I bought 2 new from dealer but got them mixed up somehow. Draglink LH is part 532 19 47-40 and draglink RH is 532 19 47-41. One of the two draglinks have a 1: blotch of red paint on one end. (one of the old ones did too). But only ONE draglink and only on One end of it. Where does that end go? Right-forward,right-rearward or left side?

    Service & Maintenance Question posted October 27, 2018 by Frank Frank 
    Question:
    Motion Drive Belt Came Off and is Wedged Between Pulley and Transmission - Help!

    42" Riding Lawn Mower (Model YTH22V42, product 960430100): Motion drive belt jumped off transmission input pulley (under battery) and is wedged tightly between the lower side of the pulley and transmission casing.

    How do I remove the transmission input pulley?

    Are there any other suggestions on how to un-wedge the motion drive belt?

    Thank you!

    Service & Maintenance Question posted October 27, 2018 by Ken Dean 
    Question:
    My 3-year-old automatic 46” riding lawnmower doesn’t sound right, runs slow, and struggles up hills. I’ve clean it, greased it, worked the air bubbles out of the transmission fluid, but it still struggles. I’ve had the annual service done every year and I’ve replaced the mulching blades. Should I not have installed mulching blades? I’ve been thrilled with my Husqvarna chainsaw, leaf blower, and weedwacker. I considered myself a Husqvarna man, but I regret spending $1609 on this Mower and Husqvarna doesn’t have a phone number where I can talk to someone. Help.

    Question:
    I have a Husqvarna YTH22V46 Riding Mower. I am a newbie to riding lawn mowers. My mower blades stopped rotating with the clutch lever turned all the way counterclockwise. The owner's manual troubleshooting instructions lack step by step directions.
    Possible causes listed include 1. Obstruction in clutch mechanism. Correction - Remove obstruction. 2. Worn/damaged mower drive belt. Correction - Replace mower drive belt. 3. Frozen idler pulley. Correction - Replace idler pulley. And finally 4. Frozen blade mandrel. Correction - Replace blade mandrel. I would appreciate step-by-instructions to check out each of these issues and do the suggested repairs.

    Service & Maintenance Question posted October 5, 2018 by Joshua Pearson 
    Question:
    Hello everyone, new owner here, I have the YTH 1942, 42 inch deck, I recently bent the left blade and just replaced it today, my question is no matter how loose I keep the bolt, the blade does not spin freely/easily and the right blade which was not damaged spins freely/easily, upon engaging the blades they both spin, however the left blade which I just replaced, slows down much quicker than the right blade. Is it possible something else is damage or is this a normal condition?

    Thank you

    Question:
    I purchased a lawn tractor (Model YTH21K46) a few years back. I'd like to find a professional service location in the west Fort Worth, TX. Any suggestions? The few places I checked either do not handle Husqvarna at all, or if they do they work on higher end professional units only.

    Service & Maintenance Question posted September 8, 2018 by Carl Barlow 
    Question:
    I have disassembled my YTH24K48 riding lawn tractor to remove the leaking fuel tank. Mission accomplished! Now I need to install the new fuel tank and reassemble the tractor. I need step by step instructions concerning how I reassemble the tractor. I took six weeks to tear the machine down, so nothing is fresh in my mind. Needless to say, I am not a Husqvarna YTH24K48 lawn tractor expert. Any, and all, constructive ideas will be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Service & Maintenance Question posted August 29, 2018 by Karen McLaughlin 
    Question:
    When I turned my headlights on my 2017 26hp 54" riding lawnmower cut off while the blades were engaged. I have checked the wiring and have not yet found an issue but since the blades are engaged I need to disengage the blades before continuing to troubleshoot the other concern so that the 2 issues don't overlap. How do I disengage the blades when there is no electricity from the battery making it to the PTO switch?

    Service & Maintenance Question posted August 12, 2018 by Gerry Waterson 
    Question:
    I was replacing the V belt on my Husqvarna LTH 130 (9541401017A)and accidentally knocked the Idler spring extension off what it was attached to at both ends. I connect one end to what I think is the hole on the pulley end and attach the other end to what I think it goes to but doing that causes the V belt to rub against the spring which is not good. I spent hours looking at photographs and see hundreds of pictures but all have a different hole on the mower deck and none show my exact model.
    Details:

    The belt isn't in the picture but it rubs across the top of the spring of the idler pulley when installed. The Mandrel pulley is to the right at the top of the photo.

    Service & Maintenance Question posted August 6, 2018 by JAMES AINSWORTH 
    Question:
    I have a Hus MZ5225 riding lawnmower. I can start it and it starts right up and runs great (mowing for a long period). When I turn it off and the unit is hot, it will not start until it has cooled for artleast 3-4 hours. Anyone know why or how I can fix this problem. I am leaning toward the solinoid but I want some other ideas before I go and pull it.
