Additional Information

The snowblower flat key 84004762 fits into a machined keyway to secure a component, such as a pulley or gear, to a rotating shaft so both turn together without slipping.

If you notice shaft movement independent of the pulley, grinding, slipping under load or visible wear in the keyway, the flat key may be worn or damaged.

Disconnect the spark plug wire before beginning the repair. Wear work gloves, remove the connected component carefully and seat the new key fully into the keyway before reassembling.
