Removing deck from a craftsman mower 

Exactly what I am looking for. Hit a big ass rock last week and need to level out my blades. Thanks for the quick and dirty video. Need more out there like this!

I found this video helpful, but comical. haha. Here I am in my warm garage getting ready for winter, with a bench full of tools, and this guy does it in 5 minutes with two tools. New York accent made me laugh coming from a Michigander. Thanks for the help! Now I have to put all my tools back heheh Everyone complaining about the leaves, jeeze, all the information is shown in detail. Not like you need a step-by-step video on to do this. Coming from a person that is going to drop his mower deck for the first time. UPDATE*** Everything came down smooth with the help of this video. Cheers to all!

Perfect. Love my old GT - runs like a beast! Time to sharpen the blades. Appreciate hearing my 'native tongue', complete with colorful adjectives! LOL

Sound like you from Bostonn, great video

The cotter pin’s may have been easier to spot if the leaves were removed 1st, just saying.😉

your accent had me rolling buddy! im from oklahoma. Any ways videos help for sure!

That's as dirty as my Craftsman! Which is 10 years old now. Thanks for the video. I've got to do this to get at my blades and sharpen them. I think lowering the deck to the ground would take tension off the hangers and make it easier to reinstall. I do think I'll take a broom and hose to my dirty deck before tackling this job! :D

Nice work. Great camera coverage. Thanks!

Great job my friend 👍💯🇺🇸

use your lift arm to drop the deck down first

Thanks for the video, it’s five years old and still helping people.

Perfect video! F-Bombs and bleeding before it's done. Thanks for posting real world mechanics.

Thanks for making the video!

Good video - Thanks

Sounds like Boston. Lol.. good video

I just bought one of these mowers for $100. From this video, I learned NOT to take the deck off for frivolous reasons. I'm going to miss my John Deere LA130.

Thank you so much for this video, I've been wanting to take my deck off but didn't exactly know how.

Come on! lets clean out all the leaves and crap before showing the video . This way we can see what is going on in the video.

Good job filming and work at the same time,I probably would have done had to sit the phone down,good job brother

thanks for this but I'm looking at my old Craftsman and thinking...nah. good for another year.

It sucks that my mowers older and hard to find the right parts sometimes?it took four different stops to find the deck belt ,I got a 96.5 inch belt for a 42 in.mowere so I hope it fits,all I could do was measure the broken belt up next to the new one

If I do this, is there anyway to take it off. Then you can drive the mower around without the deck?

Badass☆☆☆☆☆

GOOD VID.! no fluff, to the point. Belts often do weird stuff when worn and this belt on mine is old ! May likewise have tensioner woes too have to get deck off first. The weird issue is engine stalls 'now' when I engage, or try to engage blades. Replacing both belts and hoping it is solved. Do you concur??? T Y...

Mines a 19.5 h.p. Is it the same removal processes for the most part?

good video. but the thing dropped like 10 ton weight... how the "F" do you put it back on???????

damn... that's one dirty mower deck..LMAO

Thanks MrFabio24; you made my life a lot easier today!

Good commentary haha. Maybe wear some gloves next time?

CAN U SHOW WHERE ALL THE SPRINGS ARE ON THE DECK I THINK IM MISSING ONE

Thx

I cant find a new chute for my craftsman neither,they don’t have em anymore apparently🧐

I can't FUCKIN' believe it!

Thanks for the video. It was very helpful..… not so much the language.
