1969 GT-14 1-7441 Electric Clutch Help Please

I actually work at a lawn and garden dealership. A friend of mine is trying to restore his GT-14 and he needs a clutch. Toro's IPL are incomplete but I managed to find the pdf for the parts list elsewhere. I came up with a number of 9656 for the electric clutch which subbed to a 101473; both of which are discontinued. So here is my question... Does someone out there have the manufacturers number for that clutch. I have access to about 30 different manufacturers so i could probably find a clutch that would work but most of them don't publish shaft sizes in an intelligible format. With the manufacturer's number I could probably easily substitute it.

 

Any help is greatly appreciated - this sight has helped me in the past, personally and professionally so I know if anybody can help it will be you guys. 

 

Thanks,

Ael

The units were from Werner electric but the pulley part was sort of unique to Wheel Horse.  What is wrong with his unit?  I would guess the coil part was more universal and the bearings are standard items.

So been doing some digging in my free-ish time.. clutch number, 9656, has a Werner part number (from Toro Tech) of i-5208-271-001. I spoke with a gentleman at Werner who said that that clutch has been discontinued for some time and that the pulley was special, as pfrederi said, specific to wheel horse. Last one they sold was over 5 years ago. I'm on hold as we speak with a distributor that, I'm hoping, will have one sitting on a self collecting dust.

 

Appreciate everybody's help. I will suggest rebuilding to him and I'm going to point him to this site.

And.....struck out with the distributor so no possible way to get a new clutch :-) worth a try.

If the pulley was the only proprietary portion of the clutch and Werner can support you with other parts it should work out OK. Please share the information you gain with us so we can help others in the future.    :handgestures-thumbupright:

I'll pass that along. And TY sirs. I just noticed that little gif on everyone's posts :-D

 

oh and I wanted to mention before i forgot that the information Werner had was very incomplete. They didn't have any dimensions, component part numbers or anything on their drawings. I can get that stuff usually but in this case since Wheel Horse was bought out I'm assuming that stuff was all kept in house and was proprietary. Being as it was, I'm sure its lost now. If i am able to i'll mic the shaft/clutch and see what I can do.

Did you happen to put an add in the wanted section? Might also want to check with A-Z tractors in the vendor section, he may have a good used one.

      417A Clutch Seized When Mowing, How Do I Fix?
      By the jeep driver
      My daughter was using the Wheel Horse rider to mow, I was push mowing.  She drives over to me and says, "Dad, the blades aren't turning." I look at the mower, she's got the blades engaged (lever forward) but nothing is moving.  I disengage the blades, and re-engage... nothing.  No movement from the belt nor clutch.  Then I notice the smell, and look closer, the belt is so hot is melting on the clutch.  Or rather, the clutch is so hot it's melting the belt.  Melting occurred. 

      While the clutch is disengaged, I can spin the clutch freely; and whilst it's engaged, it won't move. 

      So, what did I do now?  Peter told me to lube that needle bearing, but I couldn't find a write up/how to anywhere, so I was putting it off until after the leaves were done falling in the Fall.  I haven't taken anything off yet, other than the pins that hold the pinion and such, and the little brake pad.  I see there are two snap rings, assume they come off, and then the assembly slides out as a whole? 

       
      Some pictures of the clutch, can anyone tell if it's usable from them?

      416-8 Clutch linkage Problem
      By RJ Hamner
      Its been a while since I was able to work on my 416-8 rebuilt and right now the few brain cells are having a tough time.
      I am in the process of putting the wiring harness back in and the problem is the clutch safety switch.
      The arm with the idler wheel that engages the switch is over ridding the switch arm.
      I had tried adjusting the rod from the peddle to the arm but no matter my adjustment I still have the problem
      I am kinda at my wits end on this one.
      Any help will be greatly appreciated

      308-8 Drive Belt Slipping
      By John A
      The clutch spring  on my 308-8 broke, so the tractor stopped dead.   It was easy to see the broken red spring,  after I removed the right rear wheel.   I  was able to order a replacement spring which I replaced today.  Problem now there is too much slack on the drive belt.  The tractor will move, but barely as if the drive belt is not tight and slipping.  It seems that the clutch pulley isn't applying enough force against the belt.  I have  tried adjusting the clutch rod but that doesn't seem to make a difference.  It only changes the position of the clutch pedal .  I don't see any other adjustment option to put more pressure on the drive belt.  The belt is old, but seems acceptable.  Before the clutch spring, broke, the tractor would jump out in any gear.  No slippage.

      GT-14 Brush Guard
      By Bear G
      I was thinking about putting this brush guard on my ‘69 GT-14. So much for thinking.. I don’t really care for it..
      Original thought was it would look cool & help protect that exposed fuel tank.
      .  Pretty sure I’m going to abort on this project.
      Back to the drawing board..
        Yes, I know, wrong hood decals for ‘69.. 
      This hood is off a ‘70 I had.

      Added another 69’, work horse 700 project
      By bigcreek
      Well I found an eBay special, 700 Work Horse I bought for the deck to put on the 68 Commando I bought. 
      This 69 came as a parts machine, but all that is there is in great shape. Already pulled the trigger on a Tecumseh HH10, unfortunately did not do the research prior about the crappy coils on these engines. 
      Pill now ponder the repower more
