Husqvarna All Wheel Drive mower repair. Belt, pulleys, and cable. Husqvarna LC221A

Complete instructions to replace pulleys, belt and cable.
Our 4 year old Husqvarna mower needed some work. The cable that activates the wheels broke. When we started working on it we discovered that the pulleys and the belt were in need of repair as well. We have used this mower on our farm for 4 years and it’s back in business.

Please check the part description. I have updated the links as parts supplies change. But I can’t guarantee the parts have not changed

I did it! I changed the blade and put the belt back on (it was hanging off the pulley). The mower was self-propelling great when I first bought it and noticed it was getting harder to push. I searched youtube for a detailed video and I found yours. Thank you!

Great video!!!! For the life of me I couldn't figure out how the spring attached when I took my mower apart. The spring just fell out not being able to see what it was hooked too Thanks again!!!

Well I had to watch your video about 20 times but I was able to repair my self propel cable!!!! Thanks for the

That was no mouse nest. These mowers do not have a great belt relay or grass clipping flow design. The belt basically transports and deposits debris around the transmission pulleys. It's HIGHLY advisable to clean out under the plastic top cover and bottom shroud after every mowing season.

Yours is the best tutorial by far that I could find to repair my Husqvarna awd mower. Thanks so much for taking the time to share it!!

I have this mower. Needs this done. I already had it disassembled. Then when I was ordering parts, there were options for belt sizes. I couldnt source out the part number I needed. So I came here. I had to slow down frame rate to 0.25 and zoom in. But the belt clearly had the part number. Finally.

close up of the spring installed would be nice

Thank you so much for making this video with specific instructions. I was able to change out the cable without paying a repairman that has already done it once this season!

My pulleys were seized up as well. 2 of them I was able to spray with JB Blaster and they freed up pretty easily and turn fine. The third took some soaking and still had to run a plastic punch thru the center, put it in a vice and turn the pulley to free it up. Then put the pulley in the vice and put a cordless drill onto the plastic punch and ran the drill both ways until it was fully freed up. Your video was awesome as well as your beautiful property!

I did the cable. It took a couple hours, but it works now.

Great video. Wish it was not so dark when working on underside of mower. I have to replace same parts on my mower. Thank you.

[kirstencosner]

Excellent video. Having a trailer to work off of is a huge advantage. Took me two hours from a work bench.

This was exactly what I needed and the perfect level of detail. Thank you!

Awesome going to look mine over tomorrow and see what's failed on the drive. Like yours mine is about 4-5 years old but it's a great mower.
Again thanks for taking the time to show us all how easy something like this is to do. Note I was a auto mechanic for 35 years and like doing things myself when possible. Again great job awesome block of instruction.

Sincerely Arni
