Yazoo jack shaft failure/repair

[Hammermechanicman]

I had a yazoo HPTOK which is the big 76" hydro with 22hp kohler. I had 3 of those blade adapters break over time. I made some from mild steel and they worked fine.

Oh, so it is common that explains why I found it. Mower is a 26" big wheel,10hp Wisconson light, still stout. Bought the thing in 86, today replaced the broke blade adapter.


The blades are non existent, rebuilt the cutting edge & balance.

I found a set of blades for my left hand 76" deck 10 years ago and they were $60 a piece. $180 for a set of mower blades. Parts were nonexistent so i sold it.
