Hi -
I am new to this forum and new to small engine repairs. I am trying to replace the above mentioned clutch disk and I am having trouble removing the nut from the underside of the deck.
I can get the nut loose but the "spindle" (for lack of a better term) above the deck, spins freely as I would suspect it to. It appears as though this "spindle" has two opposing flat sides that would allow a wrench (albeit very small) to grab hold and then allow me to loosen the nut from this "spindle".
Snapper website along with others show this part in their diagrams but do call it out in the parts listings... this is the reason I call it what I do.
Do I need a special wrench and or is there something (obviously) I am missing here. I am a novice and I am trying to "refurbish" my old Snapper walk-behind, which includes painting the deck (reason for removing the clutch disk).
Thank you in advance and I apologize for the lengthy post. I really do appreciate everyone's time (time is a precious)!
