Lawn boy parts number 100-2948.

Working in a trade school I had access to many different types of materials. Metal formed very easily, but the environment of a shop got banged around leaving openings around the filter which would leak. Plastic solved that problem and as I said reduced the number of times hands and wrist were...

Metal was a material I tried, but found that it would not hold its form. Easily distorted especially the area around the filter. Plus it had sharp corners and edges, which caused an increase in the bandaid supply. I forgot to add that once you size the plastic around the filter, heat the...

Back when I was teaching, ran into this problem on a wide variety of engines. Made about a half dozen what I call oil troughs. Here’s what I had my students do. Get a piece of polyethylene plastic about 6” X 8”X1/8”. Get a new or cleaned up used filter you need a solution for, two work...

No deck wheels.

I’ve run the mulching setup year round for the last 30 years and have never had a problem. I like the way it the yard looks after each cutting. Yes there iss a problem if you must cut when the grass is wet or has gotten too long, it clears up the next time I cut. You will have to clean the...

Doing a little research I think your unit uses a model 918-0551A peerless transmission. If I am correct it uses Bentinite clay based lube. There should be an ID tag on the transmission, but it may be difficult to find. Here’s where I found that transmission number...

Original module should be #681578, superseded to 100-2949.

Here is the reassembly order I suggest you follow. 1. Admit that I’m smarter than those on this forum who have tried to help me. This is because I don’t understand what they are saying and don’t need to answer their questions. Even smarter than those who produced the parts diagram. 2. Admit...

I doubt that it is possible, as the OP must do that. Most times they don’t even post back and say thanks. They are the only ones who know the end results.

Not you for sure. I don’t know why I keep following this thread, but it has gotten so bad I have to warn others not to use anything you suggest to do. The part #57 you call a bolt and washer is just a specific type of bolt with NO separate washer. It is called a Tower Lawn & Garden Equipment...

I’m just showing my age and background. I guess we’re just calling them a different name, but we will end up with the same results When using the proper one.
