SINGLE SPEED BEVEL GEAR TRANSMISSION

GENERAL INFORMATION

This transmission was fi rst used on 22" steel deck
models for 2002. It is used in both front wheel and rear
wheel drive confi gurations. The bevel gear is reversed
when used in the front drive versus the rear drive to
change axle shaft direction of rotation.
In both cases, the gears are in constant mesh. Clutching
is done by rocking the transmission to tighten or loosen
the drive belt (Fig. 040). The control cable will move
the transmission to tighten the belt. When released, the
weight of the transmission causes it to rock towards the
engine to disengage.
