countax rider 30 double pulley repair

[toecramp]

The Countax rider was the worst product that Countax ever made.
The stories are that their were more sent back to factory with multiple problems than were ever used.

The pulley system was changed in 1996 to 2 pulleys with a shaft in between but parts maybe getting hard to get.
Usually Countax use 6203 RS bearings or 6205 RS.

I would try a local bearing shop like Brammer - Home.

thank oyu really help ful

hi
i am presently working on a customers ride on mower, its a countax rider 30 , i replaced the belts, this wasnt easy, but with resilience i managed it
as i dont have the workshop manual, or any manual for it, and cant find a useful one on net, only the operators manual.

my only problem is the rear double pulley, where the pto belt changes the angle, and sends another toothes belt off to the grass collector mechanism
this double pulley is cast iron, and i presume the bearings have gone,

its a strange set up as the pulley is fastened to the body by 'one' bolt.so it can easily move, which must have led to the failure of the bearings.

customer said their was a 'funny' sound, being the bearings ripping to pieces,

so now i either need a whole new double pulley, which i cant find, or new bearings, but what size?

anybody with any help will be appreciated

thank you

Hi

I don't know if you can help me, I have just bought one of these Countax rider 30 with a u/s engine. I thought it woulfd have been a straight forward engine swap, how wrong could I be, it's a nightmare to work on. The old belts were well worn and split so I am changing them while it is in bits. I've got most of it sussed out now except I can't work out the route for the very top belt and how it appears to drive the pto by turning 90 degrees.

Cheers Les
