C-81 Ready to mow

Recommended Posts

Finished the "new" C-81 last night, last on the list was to replace an axle seal, all went well...

Now on to finishing the 48" deck for the C-120...

Pics of my "seal installation tool", cut the bottom off an old hard rubber table leg cap, & tapered the end a little on the bench grinder.

Slid the new seal in place & pushed into seat evenly with fingers, butted new "tool" to it, used a plastic extension tube from my shop vac & one good tap with a rubber mallet drove it home.

Worked great! :rolleyes:

I had a couple of pics, I chose the one with the mouse trap in it, figured it would get a comment or two. :D
