Servicing the Castor Wheel
and Bearings
The castor wheels rotate on a roller bearing supported by a
spanner bushing. If the bearing is kept well lubricated,
wear will be minimal. Failure to keep the bearing well
lubricated will cause rapid wear. A wobbly castor wheel
usually indicates a worn bearing.
1. Remove the locknut and wheel bolt holding the castor
wheel to the castor fork (Fig. 65).
2. Remove one bushing, then pull the spanner bushing
and roller bearing out of the wheel hub (Fig. 65).
3. Remove the other bushing from the wheel hub and
clean any grease and dirt from the wheel hub (Fig. 65).
4. Inspect the roller bearing, bushings, spanner bushing
and inside of the wheel hub for wear. Replace any
defective or worn parts (Fig. 65).

5. To assemble, place one (1) bushing into the wheel hub.
Grease the roller bearing and spanner bushing and
slide them into the wheel hub. Place the second
bushing into the wheel hub (Fig. 65).
6. Install the castor wheel into the castor fork and secure
with the wheel bolt and locknut. Tighten the locknut
until the spanner bushing bottoms against the inside of
the castor forks (Fig. 65).
7. Grease the fitting on the castor wheel.
Replacing the Grass Deflector
An uncovered discharge opening could allow the
lawn mower to throw objects in the operator’s or
bystander’s direction and result in serious injury.
Also, contact with the blade could occur.
Never operate the lawn mower unless you install a
cover plate, a mulch plate, or a grass chute and
catcher.
Warning
1. Remove the locknut, bolt, spring and spacer holding
the deflector to the pivot brackets (Fig. 66). Remove
damaged or worn grass deflector.
2. Place spacer and spring onto grass deflector. Place the
L end of spring behind deck edge.
