    Questions & Answers for Pulley Idler


    I am asking about the idler pully listed here as part number 532196106. It says it will fit my model number but I don't see that model number on the list of models this part number fits . The largest diameter of the pully is 5.1/4 does that sound right for this part ? I didn't measure the diameter that the belt itself rides on.
    Kurt buckler for model number 917.203820 asked on 2022-03-03
    Hello Kurt, thank you for writing. This pulley is exactly 6 inches in diameter according to the 1 inch grid behind the part. Using your model, we find two idler pulleys, one that is labeled Ground Drive Idler Pulley Flat 9 ( 3-3/4 inches) part number 19532194327. The other is labeled Ground Drive Fixed Idler Pulley V Groove ( 3-3/4 inches) part number 532194326. We hope this helps.

    Tools Used

    Wrench Set

    1. Lowered deck height to ground level
    2. Released tension on blade drive belt
    3. Removed belt from bad idler pulley
    4. Used 9/16 end wrench to remove nut from bolt holding idler pulley onto bracket. Bolt will drop out of bracket if not pushed upward. It is a carriage bolt that has flats to hold it in place while loosening or tightening the nut.
    5. Replaced old idler with replacement idler pulley
    6. Tightened up nut on bolt holding on new idler pulley. Must hold bolt into bracket so flats make contact while tightening nut
    7. Installed belt back onto new idler pulley
    8. Rotated belt on deck assembly by hand to check alignment and fit
    9. Put tension back onto deck drive belt, checked alignment again
    10. Raised deck and went back to mowing grass. Total repair time under 20 minutes

    We have 2 riding lawn mowers. One had an electrical issue that I felt needed to go to the repair shop for proper diagnostics. It was there for over 2 months only to have a switch replaced. They also rebuilt the front end, which we did not request.

    So, When the 2nd mower threw a Belt, I thought simply replacing the belt was the solution until I found the idler pulley missing. I immediately went to eReplacementParts.com, found my mower by manufacturer and model number, ordered the parts I needed and had them delivered within 5 days. Within 30 minutes after the parts were delivered, I had repaired the mower and went about mowing the yard. I needed no instruction, I simply looked at the parts schematic and could see exactly how it went together. Pulleys are not a challenge. Thanks eReplacementParts.com, looks like no more wasting time and money at the "professional" lawn mower shop. For most repairs, these guys have the solution!

    Release the tension bar on the deck so the belt is loose. Use a 9/16 socket to remove the bolt holding the pulley. The new pully does not come with a new bolt, which is ridiculous. Install the new pully and tighten. Tighten the belt by locking your tension bar. Done. Some have said they have removed the mower deck to do this job, I found no need to do it. Appx 45 min job, max
