Yard-Man push mower parts

cults3d

I have a 1995 Yard-Man 21" push mower with rear drive. A lot of the parts have become hard to find, so I made my own. If you are looking for parts, these might help you when you are in a pinch. I searched other 3d printed web sites and couldn't find any that would work. If you have an older push mower, these might help you. Idler-pulley I couldn't find the idler pulley, so I made 2 types. They fit the dimensions OD: 1-1/2", ID: 3/8", Height: 1/2" IdlerPulleyCustom - Has a plastic bearing (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4628063) has held up to 4 cuts (about 6 hours). I greased it with lanolin oil to reduce friction and heat on the bearings. I don't expect it to last much longer, but it's a test to see how long plastic bearing will work on machinery. IdlerPulley - I plan on using this one long term. It's easy to swap, so this one is my go to part. Throttle lever The throttle lever is patterned after the original. The old one snapped the handle off the disc, so I created a new one. I made mine out of PETG, but I think ASA might be better so the hole doesn't deform around the cable connection.
