Need help

Postby jerkputter123 » Wed Aug 05, 2020 6:31 pm

I removed the blade on my Troy-Bilt and the wave washer and another thicker washer fell out while I was not looking.
Model 12AE449D011
250539
Serial # 1F048K10393
000001
I am not sure which goes first because the manual don't show it. Wave washer , thick washer and blade adapter ? or thick washer, wave washer and blade adapter. The manual said to pay attention to how it came out. It fell after I walked away and I had not read the manual first.
I hope the blade is not like everything else, back ordered .
What year would this mower be if you can tell by the numbers I posted ? Thanks

First with the multiple piece blade adapter it is a 2008 model.

Now the IPL doesn't show the thick washer and I have seen one of these yet so I am of no help there.

Just looking it might be the thick washer goes next to crankshaft, then wave washer, then of course blade adapter. I really don't think it would matter. I might be wrong. Picture didn't show it like you mentioned. All it mentioned is to make sure how it came out which I don't have a clue. Maybe someone else will chime in and tell me. I just need a new blade as this one has chopped some rocks :D

I just put the thicker washer first, then wave washer and blade adapter . Works good. I have no idea if someone before me has messed with this but everything looks original. I appreciate your help.

Now that is a possibility as they may wanted a lower cut.
