Older JD 36 inch commercial mower repower
Picked up an older John Deere 36 commercial walk behind mower to restore
Over the winter. Think it was made by Bunton. Cannot find model details in JD database.
Anyone know how to remove the brass pulley on Kawasaki motor? Going to put another Kawasaki mower off a Lesco on the JD. Also need to know how the speed lever engages the shaft to control speeds.
Speeds. Thanks in advance.

OK,

Made some progress. It seems the speed is controlled by a pulley that moves the belt outward and slides on the spring loaded bronze sleeve on the engine shaft. How do I remove the bronze sleeve top so I can pull the engine out and repower?

See photos.

Hello, I picked up an older mower with the same deal. How did you get the sleeve off?
