Get some spray lube with teflon. Clean the dirt and krap out and spray on the bushing. It should free it up. If it keeps happening you may need to replace the bushing completly.

BTW, you need a special tool to do this $50-80 from JD dealer. After mucking around for too long I learned the best thing to do is drive the gater into the back of you pick up. Waste a bunch more time driving to your nearest JD dealer. Wait 5 min while they use the special tool. Pay too much money for the bushing. Then go home.

If you keep the bushing clean and lubed, it works pretty good. Also check to make sure the black wear plugs on the other pully are not worn out. If they are - replace them quick. There is an easy way to take them out without taking the whole thing apart.

I work my gater hard. It is a great machine, too bad there is so much plastic on it. Grant
