Yooperdave,

What has broken on the Husky 155? I might buy one soon or the V twin model if I can find one.

( slammer,
I am trying to locate the model number on the "Peerless" transmission on my Scag walkbehind mower. All research so far, leads me to believe that I should be finding a number on the trans. that starts with 700-
The ONLY number that I can find on mine is 3628-P1.
I need to either replace the shaft in mine or replace the entire trans. Any ideas ? )

There are at least 2 differant models of hydro Scag walk behinds. Get me the model number of the mower itself and i'll look it up for you.

Hi Nick,

I would like to think that our Husqvarna has lots of personality /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif.

The front wheel fell off early in its career and I almost killed myself. The corporate office got a nasty gram from me and sent some replacement parts.

The starter has always been a problem. I used to think that the battery was dead or needed charging, but the problem remains undiagnosed. I am always happy when the starter engages the engine.

The exhaust pipe fell off the engine early on. I bought some grade 8 bolts and reassembled and really tightened the assembly up.

The gear shifter also needed some attention.

I love the concept of front end mower with articulation, I am just leary of the HUSKY package.

Good Luck

Yooper Dave

Oh, Sure, make this difficult for me. Where on earth would I start to look for that information ?
This is an older scag mower, model year or year of manufacture is definately unknown. I bought this mower about 4 years ago, in a very well used and half **** repainted (red)condition.
What little I can tell you at present is that it is a Scag , belt driven, 52" cut with a 12 HP Kawasaki engine.
Now. Aren't you glad you joined this web site ?

Who is making this difficult on whom here??? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
FWIW there should be a small metal plate riveted to the frame of that monster somewhere. I honestly cannot do anything without that model number. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Yooperdave,

Thanks for your thoughts on this mower so far. One other question is the one that haunts me the most is if the engine is up to par. Has it held up for your parents? Seems like an OK unit to me by the specs I have seen one in person but not very up close and now I am super close to taking the plunge next few weeks here and I am leaning towards ordering one in. Oh one more question: Does the mower deck lift up or does it always stay in the lowered position like the small Deere front mowers? Thanks a bunch!

slammer,
Thanks, I will look for that plate tomarow in the daylight and let you know what I find. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Hi Nick,

The engine has been fine once the starter decides to engage it.

The mower deck does lift up a few inches during transport.

Lancer update.
My mower is atleast at the dealers. I was still unable to see it yeasterday because it was still sealed in it's shipping crate. It is schedueled for assembly and prep today and the salesman said that he would be happy to drop it off at my house on his way home, so as to save me another trip. I expect to have it delivered in the next day or two. As long as I have it for Saturdays mowing I'll be happy.
