Re: (ET) What are hub set screws and reinforcements?



Hi,
Thanks for the info.
I have emailed the www.elec-trak.org site asking if they can post this list and if they can get Bill Gunn's permission.  I wouldn't want to infringe on his rights.

Don't know about the reinforcements.  The hub set screws are hex head
screws that hold the hub to the axle.  If they are loose, the wheel will
move in and out on the axle. At least on my tractor, there are *two* of
them in each hole, one inner and one outer.  TO tighten them, you unscrew
the one set screw you can see, and then, under that, is the inner set
screw.  Tighten that, and then put the outer screw back in and tighten it.

I've never seen that list - can someone post a copy?

thanks,

Steve Gaarder

Technical Services (Bill Gunn) included a sheet entitled "Purchasing a 
Used Elec-Trak - Things To Do After."
I understood most of the recommendations except:
1.  Check the hub set screws (large frame only)
2. Make sure to install the reinforcements below the mower deck (where 
required)
Can anyone shed some light on these recommendations for a beginner.
Thanks,
