Tom, Sheared the main drive key on my RM60 "C25644" is this something special? Can I just make one out of my bulk key stock? Or do i need to wait the 3-7 days for an OE. Thanks Tom
 
That should be just regular square key stock. There is nothing
special about it. Just a cut an appropriate length from your
inventory, clean up any burrs and you should be good to go.
 
Thanks Tom, I always worry about to hard of a key in those shafts not shearing and having to replace a golden shaft. Tom
 
I can understand the concern.

The keys are not there as some sort of shear pin device that might
be found on post hole drills or snow blower augers. I think that you
should be asking yourself how this key got sheared off.

What sort of obstructions are your mower blades hitting and how
can that be avoided in the future? Those decks are expensive to
repair so it is wise to make sure that the area being cut is clear of
all foreign objects prior to the actual mowing taking place.
