Re: (ET) ER8-36 deck motors



Yes, adapter washer/shim is required.  Grainger stocks them.  No vibration.

Did you need to make an adapter washer? Any extra vibration?

I have mulching/Gator blades on one of my decks (Oregon brand equivalent).  They work great.  Don't seem to draw any more power on the gauge.  I'm sure they draw a little more though.  I would recommend.
