Craftsman 247377300 lawn mower Parts

The model number for this Craftsman walk-behind gas lawn mower is 247377300. You will use 247377300 to look up the correct parts diagrams, maintenance information, and compatible replacement parts in the 247377300 owner's manual.

Where to find the model number on the mower

On most Craftsman walk-behind mowers, the model and serial tag is on a label or stamped plate. Check these common spots:

• Rear of the deck housing (near the discharge opening or rear door)
• Top of the deck, near the engine mounting area
• On the rear skirt area behind the engine
• On the handle bracket or handle support area

How to use the model number when ordering parts

When you search parts for 247377300, match more than just the mower type. Use the model number to confirm fit for items like wheels, cables, and drive components.

• Match the full model number exactly: 247377300
• Compare the part name and part number to your diagram callout
• Replace worn hardware (nuts, screws) when removing deck or handle parts
• Keep your old part until the replacement arrives so you can compare

Examples of model-matched parts you might see

Part type	Example part name (for this model page)	Example part number
Drive belt	Lawn & garden equipment belt	954-04260
Control cable	MTD lawn mower zone control cable	946-05105A
Wheel	MTD lawn mower wheel, 8 x 2-in	634-05040

Why it matters

Using the exact model number prevents ordering the wrong Craftsman or MTD-style walk-behind mower parts. Small differences in deck housing, transmission assembly, or handle setup can change which belt, cable, or wheel fits.

Craftsman model 247377300 is a model number, not a date code; the year of manufacture is determined from the mower’s serial number/date code label, not from “247377300” itself. Use the date-code format shown in the 247377300 owner's manual to identify the exact year.

How to find the year (what to look for)

On most Craftsman walk-behind mowers, the build date is on a sticker or stamped tag on the mower, then decoded into a month, day, and year.

• Look for a serial number/date code label on the rear of the deck, near the rear discharge area, or around the engine mounting area.
• Clean grass and dirt off the deck so the label is readable.
• Write the code down exactly (include any letters).
• Decode the date code (often formatted as MMDDYY).
• If the label is missing, use the engine’s model/type code as a secondary clue.

Common date-code format (example)

Many Craftsman mowers use a 6-digit date code that reads as:

Code format	Meaning	Example	Interprets as
MMDDYY	month, day, year	072811	July 28, 2011

Why it matters

Knowing the correct year helps us match the right walk-behind mower parts for your Craftsman 247377300, especially wear items like the lawn & garden equipment belt 954-04260 and control cables, where small design changes can affect fit.

On a Craftsman walk-behind mower like model 247377300, the model number is printed on the mower’s ID label (not on the engine). We use that mower model number to match the correct deck, handle, wheels, bagging parts, and other non-engine replacement parts.

Where to look on the mower

Check these common ID-label locations first (clean off grass and dirt so you can read it):

• On the rear of the deck housing near the discharge opening or rear door
• On the top of the deck near the engine mounting area
• On the back of the deck behind the engine
• On the handle support/handle bracket area (near where the handle bolts to the deck)
• Near the rear skirt area

What the label looks like

Most walk-behind mower labels include a few key fields. Here is what to capture:

What to write down	Example	Why we need it
Mower model number	247377300	Identifies the correct parts breakdown
Serial number	Varies	Helps confirm production run/version
Product name/brand	Craftsman	Confirms manufacturer family

Tips to avoid ordering the wrong parts

• Use the mower model number for deck and drive parts (blade adapter, wheels, cables, belt, bagging parts).
• Use the engine model/type/code (on the engine itself) for engine parts like carburetor, ignition, and recoil starter.
• If the label is faded, take a photo in bright light; rubbing chalk or a pencil lightly across raised text can make it easier to read.

Why it matters

Craftsman walk-behind mowers often share similar decks and handles across multiple versions, so the exact model number (like 247377300) is what keeps parts such as a grass bag, drive cable, or deck housing from being a near-match that does not fit.

For diagrams and model identification details, use the 247377300 owner's manual.
