Help! What Clutch Do I Need for My Lawn Mower?

If you've found yourself asking, "What clutch do I need for my lawn mower?"—you're not alone. Replacing a PTO clutch can be a bit of a challenge, especially with all the different makes, models, and specifications to consider. But don’t worry, we’re here to help! Understanding how to choose the right PTO clutch replacement can save you time, money, and frustration. The good news is that finding the right part doesn’t have to be complicated.

Let’s break down the best way to find the correct PTO clutch part number and avoid any headaches along the way. Whether you're a seasoned mower pro or a first-time DIYer, following these simple tips will make sure you get the right fit.

Start with Your Original PTO Clutch

The most reliable way to determine which PTO clutch you need is by checking the part number on your current clutch. Each clutch has a part number sticker or stamped directly on it, and this is the number you'll be looking to replace. Most equipment rolls off the factory floor with either a Warner or Ogura part number stickered right on it.

This is the most accurate method to make sure you get the right part for your mower.

If you can clearly read the part number, you’re all set! But if it’s faded or hard to see, no worries—there are other ways to track it down.

Can’t Read the Part Number? Here’s What You Can Do

If the part number is illegible, the next best option is to consult your mower’s original parts manual. These manuals usually provide diagrams and specs that can help you identify the right part. Be sure you’re using the correct manual—check the serial number on your equipment to make sure it matches what’s listed in the manual.

Also, keep in mind that parts diagrams may not always be 100% accurate due to updates or changes in design, so always cross-reference what you see in the manual with the clutch on your mower.

Match Specs Before Ordering

It’s always best to double-check the specifications of the PTO clutch you’re considering before making a purchase. This includes things like:

• Mounting style (mounts pulley facing or away from engine)
• Pulley diameter
• Shaft Diameter
• Overall height/thickness

You’ll want to make sure the specs line up exactly with what’s on your equipment. If you’re unsure about anything, we’re here to help. Feel free to reach out to us, and we’ll walk you through the process of confirming measurements.
