How to remove and Install a Walker mower Deck (In 2 min or Less) 

Thanks SO much for taking the time to share your experience with the rest of us here. My son and I struggled (and failed) to install my mowing deck for about a half hour yesterday, took a few hour break, watched your video, and did it in about 5 minutes after learning the few essential tips you showed us. Thanks again!

The first time I removed the deck from my Walker it took about 10 minutes. Installing it took about 15 or maybe even 20. It is so much faster and easier with your method, especially how you handle the PTO shaft! Thank you!

Great Job. You delivered a great instructional video with useful info, and you explained and demonstrated well. With your years of experience, your videos will be well received. I just bought a 2011 MTGHS with 23 hp. It is in relatively good condition, but I want videos like this to help do the tasks necessary to keep it maintained. You make the type of video that makes RU-vid great.

Thanks from Queensland Australia 🇦🇺 for your video, I recently purchased a walker and had the buyer remove the deck for transport and didn’t know how to put that spring back on, but now I know to lift the seat up and connect it, 👌 thanks again mate

Thanks for the video. It made it easier for me to understand what the manual was discussing. To make it easier to install the PTO coupler onto the PTO, you can get a tool that will hold the the spring loaded Quick Disconnect Ring in the withdrawl position. Walker provides this tool with all new purchases. I had to ask the dealer for one because they forgot to make sure it was with the Owners Manual. The tool is called "Coupler Insatallation Tool". This holds the spring loaded collar back to make it simpler to put the coupler on the PTO. Once the coupler is in place, the tool is removed and allows the ball bearing ring to snap into the recessed groove on the PTO. You don't have to use the tool, but it helps hold it back as you line up the coupler to the PTO.

Awesome job. Need to pull the deck on one tomorrow and this is one of the best filmed, described, explained, etc. Thanks a bunch!

Thanks, I didn’t know the PTO shaft came off the way you demonstrated. You reinforced a couple of things I learned on my own.

Thanks for the lesson. I love my Walker and would love to get more vidios on maintenance and repairs. I love doing my own and would like to learn more.

Thanks man!!! I've been struggling to get the teeth lined up and your demonstration is stellar! Now back to the driveway to do it the easy way... thanks again!

VERY good expansions of why or why not to attach mower. It is an easy setup AFTER you explain how it works. Thank you and getting me back on the lawn!

Great video- just bought an old walker that has mulch and grass handling decks. This will help me greatly. I appreciate it.

Thank you for the video. I had trouble putting the shaft on. Had the neighbor come over and he had it on in seconds. Whoop Whoop, all is well

You are a legend mate!! I have to do this tomorrow and wasn't looking forward to it. This should make my day a lot easier.

I wish you had more subs. What a great vid. I just bout a walker made in '95 that had it's motor fully redone for $2700, MF has a 62" deck and is a beast. The god damn bolt that holds the middle 2 blades on snapped my first 5 minutes mowing. Hopefully the guy didn't cross thread the bolt in but I've finally got the time to extract it today! Was gonna take the deck off and take it to my pops who's got all the tools I should need. Wish me luck with my new love, I've been using a weed eater on my 12 acres for the past 2 years. Needless to say the only shit that gets mowed is the around the house and trees lol shits as tall as me

Great visuals. I use the same technique, although it’s only once a year when I don’t have problems. Excellent review! Tough machines. My 1999 Walker MT20 GHS still running.

Super helpful....well done! Anxiously awaiting your other videos

Beautiful work thank you for sharing it I love you work on this project 🎉

Exactly what I was looking for. Appreciate the video.

It is a shame that I am just now learning about the pto shaft coming off that easy. I have always done it the hard way. Lining the deck into the pto shaft. Thanks for this tip. Can't wait to try it . Hopefully mine is not seized up at the ball bearing as you talked about.

Dang I should have watch the whole video lol took me 30 min mine wouldn't slide that easy because I left the other 2 pins in. Hey next time I will be faster. Thanks for tips and tricks .I have the 2020 t23 for my home ,great video thanks

Freaking amazing! Well done.

Worked like a charm on C19 walker. many thanks.

PTO splined/catch neck to the deck... They get grass/dirt wedged into them, then superheat over time. It ain't coming off, if you have had the same deck on for weeks. Still doing any required lubrication on top of it, first rub the surfaces with the same nano-tech anti-seize lube that car mechanics use for wheel spacers etc... FWIW. It's always amazing how dirt can get into a closed join on a lawn tractor, no matter how closed off the joint seems.

Great video just subscribed 😎👊🏾

Any info on mower gearbox (not deck). Specifically dipstick tube loose, and drain plug access with tool sizes. Deck removal video is awesome! Thank you! If no video on this to be soon, where should I go for this info?

Very helpful. Thanks for doing this!

Great video man, Thanks

The only problem I have is getting the springset reattached. I have to lift like crazy to get it back in place. What’s the trick?

Thanks for the great video. Could you perhaps create one to demonstrate a full blower replacement?

THANKS MAN YOUN MADE IT SO EASY I WAS STRUGGLING THX U

I run Walkers and it takes 3 of us to get the decks on and off. We struggle so hard. I've got a lot of RU-vid videos on Walkers as well

Thank You brother, great job!

yep, thought that was way too easy. one of the deck support arms is seized on. Any suggestions?

Thank you, very helpful.

Love to have a Walker, but on the ledge with hill preformance, and curbs. Little hilly in middle tenn.

do a video on how to jack it up and change a tire in 2 minutes. i've had a walker for 20 years and still don't know how to do it.

Do anyone now where can I buy the seat unlock pull lever ? For this same machine

Thanks for the great video!

Huge thanks for taking the time to make this video and sharing your knowledge - I think it's the most useful one I've watched on the Walker. It should be part of a 'new-owner' package! I'm a private owner but regularly swap between 48 and 52 " decks on my own and have always struggled - these few simple changes are going to make life a whole lot easier!

The only difficult part for me is when you have to lift the spring up and attach it. My machine is new and the springs are tight!! It’s very hard to lift it up and hook it.

Very nice :)

thank you for video

Could I do that with my 14hp Walker?

Awesome demo bro.. and do u still have ur company?

Thank's SO MUCH

Thanks for the tutorial. Very helpful. My quick disconnect when depressing the ring connect isn't allowing for separation; it is stuck. I hear ya about frequent removal to prevent this from happening. What do you suggest that I can do to free this up for removal. Thanks!

oh i have never removed my 2007 model

Great video, I have a ton of Walker how-to's as well on my channel, you explained this process very well. I would like to add to put a little grease on the PTO box shaft and the spring fitting for the driveshaft as I have seen the splines wear and get loose when they are dry and rusty. I have been using and repairing Walkers for 20 years now and for prob the first 4 I never pulled the deck tilt pins when I removed and installed the deck. Those flex joints with the pins in tilt position are so much easier to line up to the shafts coming off the mower.

I cannot begin tell you how helpful this was for me. I have a very bad low back and cannot spend more than a few seconds bent over at a time without causing myself a week's worth of pain. Very well explained with great clarity, great specifics, and no 20 minute intro with funky porn music in the background. Thanks a ton!!!

Very good video thanks for your time God bless you

Thanks, bro. Big help.

Good job brother

What state are you in?

More videos please

so glad I found this video. I've been wanting to learn more about this type of mower. We got an old one like this from my father in law and I love using it. I will probably be scared to try messing with it the first time but the second time I should be okay. I guess I'm gonna have to learn how to do stuff about it to keep it functional for a long time. Thanks so much. Stay safe and God Bless!

I cannot tell you enough how much I appreciate this video! Your thorough and detailed explanation of each step along with the tips, and the WHY behind each step made it absolutely invaluable to me. I'm a disabled/retired veteran and firefighter/paramedic. Once upon a time, things like this came easily to me. Now, with a very bad back, I have an extremely limited timeframe where I can be bent over. If I push it too much, I'll be laid up for a week, two weeks, maybe even a month. Seconds count. So thank you!

wow man thanks so much. my 10 year walker discharge shoot needed replace

VERY interesting design, had NEVER heard of Walker & @ 65 I had worked in the QC department of a major Lawn Mower Mfg for 40+ years

Great video, thanks for sharing this information.

I have a Walker mower for years and didn't know that the shaft has to be splined any certain way. Why is that? is it for balancing?

Excellent video, I wasn’t aware of the retention collar on the pto driveshaft, that a valuable piece of knowledge thanks 👍🏻

This was very helpful. Straightforward and clear as day.

Great video. Have you ever had to straighten out a bent or warped walker mower deck?

i like you dude. great help. subd

Very helpful! Thanks a bushel!

I so glad you made this video

Great video, helped me a lot!!!

Nice explanation.

Your blades are not set right.

You got my subscription. Well done mate. Greetings from Australia
