Craftsman 247384380 lawn mower Parts

The model number for this Craftsman walk-behind mower is 247384380. On Craftsman mowers, the model number is the best way to match the correct operator instructions and ensure you order the right replacement parts for your exact deck and handle configuration; see the 247384380 owner's manual.

We typically see the model number on an ID label or tag in one of these spots:

• On the rear of the deck near the discharge opening
• On the top of the deck near the engine mounting area
• On the rear skirt area behind the engine
• On the handle support or lower handle bracket

Some Craftsman operator manuals list a model family and note that the last digit can vary. That is normal for 21-inch mower platforms, and your full model number (247384380) is still the correct identifier to use for parts lookup and service.

Using the exact model number helps prevent ordering the wrong blade, chute, or handle hardware, and it also ensures maintenance steps (like cutting height adjustment and blade service) match your mower’s setup.

On most Craftsman walk-behind mowers like model 247384380, the model and serial number label is typically on the rear of the mower deck, near the lower handle mounting points. Use the label to match the correct parts list and the correct operating instructions in the 247384380 operator’s manual.

Check these common label locations first (starting with the most likely):

• Back of the deck, between or just below the lower handle mounts
• Rear discharge opening area (near the trail shield/rear skirt)
• Top of the deck near the engine mounting area (less common)
• Side of the deck near the height adjuster brackets (less common)

If the sticker is dirty or faded, these steps usually help:

• Wipe the area with a damp rag, then dry it
• Use mild soap and water; avoid harsh solvents that can remove printing
• Shine a flashlight across the surface at a low angle to make faint text stand out
• Take a close-up photo and zoom in to read worn characters

Record both numbers exactly as shown.

Craftsman walk-behind mowers often have multiple close model variations; using the correct model and serial number helps us match parts like the grass catcher, discharge chute, and blade components to your exact deck configuration.

The Craftsman 247384380 walk-behind mower has an average useful life of 7 years or about 140 hours of operation when maintained and used normally. After that point, we recommend a yearly inspection to keep mechanical and safety systems working correctly (see the 247384380 owner's manual).

How quickly you reach 140 hours depends on your mowing habits.

• 1 hour/week for a 6-month season: about 26 hours/year (about 5 to 6 seasons)
• 2 hours/week for a 6-month season: about 52 hours/year (about 2 to 3 seasons)
• Larger yards, heavy mulching, or frequent bagging can add hours faster
• Poor storage (old fuel, moisture) shortens service life

Consistent maintenance is what keeps a gas mower reliable year after year.

• Change engine oil on schedule
• Keep the air filter clean
• Use fresh fuel and stabilize fuel for storage
• Keep the underside of the deck clean to prevent corrosion and poor cutting
• Replace worn cutting parts (a dull blade strains the engine)

Past the average useful life, wear on safety and drive components becomes more likely. A yearly inspection helps prevent hard starting, poor cut quality, and unsafe operation.
