Deck wheel refurb.

Recommended Posts

  The wheels on my rear discharge cutter deck where well worn. The plastic type with a rubber tyre. The Showman in his kindness, gave me some more wheels off another type of deck. These were of a larger diameter but fitted and have been in use.

  The only problem is the setting of the deck for mowing. I couldn't get it just right. At the back of my bench the old wheels have been residing for some time. So as it was cooler in the workshop, I decided to do something with them.

 

  First I bored them out on the lathe to 1" bore.

Next two inserts made from this piece of self lubricating nylon that's been lying about.

  A good push fit with a drop or two of super glue.
