Product Description
This is a Idler. Manufactured by Grasshopper. This pulley will fit the following model grasscatchers: 344, 348, 352, 372, 772, 948, 952, 961, 16, 8f and 12f. The idler pulley is effectively a roller which allows the tensioner to do it’s job, while making the routing of the belt more effective. Often times, the bearing inside the pulley will fail, causing vibration or too much friction which can literally smoke a brand-new belt in a matter of minutes. We’ve seen some pretty worn-out idler pulleys in our day, and you’ll be pleased to know that they’re easy to spot when they fail. Watch out for spark plastic or metal shards on the worn pulley, but you can tell if it is worn by simply grabbing it and giving it a good turn and wiggle. If it is loose, or doesn’t turn easily, replace it. Otherwise you’ll be replacing serpentine belts left and right.
If you need any assistance in verifying that this Idler will fit your mower please call or email us. Make sure to have your model and serial number available.
