The bolts that hold the gearbox to the deck are loose, and it appears that the stumpjumper pan has to come off, after the castellated nut is removed, what I am wondering ( and there is a divot in the center of the shaft ) and am thinking is, a lot of these are typical in design, and what I'm really wondering is if anyone knows if a puller is required to pull the pan off so I can get to the bolts and tighten them as there is no way to get to the other side without removing the pan.

Part B:

I don't think the holes in the deck are ovalled, as soon as I noticed those bolts were loose I stopped using the mower and that was last fall, so it made the season, but it's time to mow already got to get it repaired asap, if they are ovalled, any advice on taking care of that ? I will flip it over this weekend and post photos if that will help and as always highly appreciate the advice, thanks again !

Billy, I don't have a Rhino brush cutter, so my opinion is probably not worth listening to. I do, however, have an old, very used Big Bee brush cutter that I have dropped the stump jumper a few times. Mine has a castelated nut that is locked into place with a cotter pin. The stump jumper has splines on it that engage into the splined drive shaft that comes down out of the gear box. The first time I removed the stump jumper, I backed off on the castleated nut but left it on the shaft so the stump jumper wouldn't fall on me, then I put two pry bars between the stump jumper and deck. My son worked one pry bar while I worked the other. We pried alternately on the bars for a while, and finally the stump jumper dropped. I took the castleated nut off and let the stump jumper come all the way down.

On mine, I don't have to remove the stump jumper to tighten the bolts that hold the gearbox onto the deck. I can actually put a long combination wrench on the nuts and have someone else tighten the bolts with a big socket and cheater bar from above.

Good luck,

Tom in TN

Hey, just looked at the folder with the cut sheets from the dealer, it appears to be a splined shaft, but the gearbox section page which may be for late model ones, shows a tapered shaft... have to flip er over and see, if tapered, I 'll be borrowing a puller !

Well worth listening to, I was hoping to hear from someone who has taken one off before, I'm hoping the designs on these are typical, be it Rhino or similar. Had the castellated nut off before, and have also changed blades on it, after shearing both shoulde bolts, I tried to get a manual from the MFR, nothing doing, a dealer sent me a diagram, but it's not detailed, so no way to know how its on there, but I will have to take another look, would be nice to reach those bolts.

Thanks for the advice !!!
