Stiga EL63 Blade Clutch

[apl1976]

Hello

 

My first post on this forum and I would like some advice.

 

The blade clutch has broken on my ride on mower and have been looking on the internet for replacements.

 

The cheapest I can find is £180 and wondered if anyone out there has had the same problem and if is this part fixable.

 

I am aware that this part is also used on other mowers, but the price remains the same.

 

Any advice/pointers etc would be muchly appreciated

apl1976, welcome to the forum.

 

What part of there clutch has broken?

 

Is it the actuator (top) bit, or the friction part on the bottom to which the blade bridge bolts?

Thanks for the quick reply

 

From what I can make out it mainly the bottom part, but the top part isn't in the best condition so I think a whole new one is needed.

Then I think you will need to bite the bullet and pay the price.

 

Several manufacturers use the same BBC unit, and most only supply as a complete assembly.

 

It is usually just the bottom bit that needs replacement due to worn, or broken friction material, or broken drive flanges.

 

John Deere supply just the bottom bit separately. It fits other makes and saves a good deal of money. I usually keep a couple around.
