How does the gear box come apart on a six horse troy built tiller?

I assume your talking about a lawn tractor if so belts need tightened or rear-end gear or transmission is slipping and will need replaced.

without a proper model number it is guess work, but either the drive belt has snapped, or if the right wheel drive the left wheel, there may be a half moon key way or a shear pin. General help here, followed by parts suppliers

Hole in the top side casting ... remove the plug. 90 or 110 weight gear oil available at yor auto parts store or other fine retailer who sells lubricants.

Is this a two speed or a 4 speed ... it is a MTD built Troy or a Troy built Troy or do you know?

There were two versions of Horse built in Troy, New York bu Gardenway ... the two speed and the 4 speed. The two speed used two belts the same size while the 4 speed used one belt on different sized pulleys. There was also a variation that used a slip gear ... this model was built to accomodate other accesories ... log splitter and generator.

If yours is a Troy Built from Garden Way, I can help you. If this one is from MTD, I'm not so sure. Can you ID your machine for me please?

Go to this website and type in Horse for your model number.Just put thenumber 1 in for your serial number and it will bring up several horse tiller manuals. If yours is a 1976 then it should be
a Horse I model. This should be a two speed tiller and have two drive belts.

HELLO,

from your statement above two things are involve in fixing up your tiller
what you need to do from here is that get your self a set of spanner
to fix up your gear box

peak up the size of spanner that you can use in fixing up the gear
put off the engine then unscrew then remove the old grease in it and then applied some grease oil in it or you should change the gear box completely

if you can not this then for you should be able to use you tiller you have to hold the shaft manually while using it

please note what have been is that your gear box is bad it need service or replacement depending on your financial strength but it is advice to get a new and better one if you can not do the fixing your self
after all this then the level of engaing control will be very ok

Good luck

That's the engine number. It's a 6Hp Tecumseh. Go on ebay and buy the Troy Bilt parts manuals on CD for Horse Roto Tillers (if that's what it's on). I paid $8. Definitely worth it.

The serial number is stamped on the upper right hand side of the gear housing. It is on a flat spot just above the wheel shaft. If it is a newer model it will be on a white sticker on top of the gear housing plate. If it has the T handle it is probably an older 1980's model. If you find the six digit number I can give you the year it was made.

OReily Auto parts stores carry GL-4 straight 140W gear oil that will work for the old Troy Bilt tillers. Its around $12.00 a gallon.

Remove the Belt, take it to an a Auto parts store and buy a smaller one, the replacement engine may not be exactly as the old one was
