Looks simple enough to work on. I imagine the lawnmower repair shops have more than a few sitting around for parts. These trannies were pretty popular with mtd products.
Good video, I just took mine apart, the drive shaft teeth were worn. Question: there is a ball bearing that sits in upper casing that holds this "gear changer" in place. The three grooves determine the gear. When you reassembled, where did you set the shaft? fwd, neutral or reverse?
I left it in neutral, that way it was easier when I hooked the shifter back up. I think any spot would be fine as you can move it with the case back together and can kind of feel what spot its in.
hello, thanks for the video, I am writing to you from Italy, I have a problem with my lawn mower, with the forward gear if I am going downhill it picks up speed and you can hear a noise at the transmission (continuous beat), which it doesn't do if I go downhill in reverse. What can it depend on? Thanks Marc
@@MrQuattroDriver the traction is ok uphill and flat while downhill it picks up speed as if there was no gear engaged, and you hear a strong beat from the transmission that ends when the traction resumes when the descent is over
Not a true hydro transmission , it's a constant velocity transmission , just like the ones in the Troy Bilt and yard machine lawn mowers it uses belt tension provided by varying tightness of the belt aka foot pedal depressed to go faster or slower , I know I have seen many yard machine riding mowers with this same type transmission and they always seem to start making a whining grinding noise before they just stop working
@@mightyjoeyoung1390 many people get duped into buying a lawn mower thinking they have an automatic transmission when in fact it's not a hydrostatic automatic transmission but rather a vari-drive system with a foot pedal you depress for forward speed which actually just tightens the drive belt up and that was my point
Well,if you've got a yard that doesn't have alot of obstacles these aren't bad. They still pull decent and are easy enough to get used too. Dont get me wrong,I'd rather have a hydrostatic, but these are a bit cheaper to help keep costs down.
good vid! Actually the ONLY vid on the 1040 Automatic...TY!
Thanks for the video I have grease getting on my brakes I saw how it was possible thank you
Great video!
Thanks for the vid. Nice and simple.
Nice video man thanks for the information

Could you please tell me what the Shift Rod bearing purpose and how do I get it back in place. I would appreciate you’re help. Ty
I know it rides in the grooves on the shift fork shaft. You may be able to use grease to hold it in place for reassembly.

It sounds like it pops out of gear
@@MrQuattroDriver

Yes, it is popping out because the transmission is trying to hold all the weight back.
THAKS LOOKS LIKE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE.

Cub Cadet doesn't call it a Hydrostatic transmission anyway so...

But can it be pulley swapped for more speed?😂
@@sicsempertyrannis4104 the vari-drive shreeve system, no , but drive pulley on engine yes , with modifications
