Awesome thankyou and I'm apologising in advance this is the first sp mower I have worked on so I will likey ask alot of basic questions since it's rare and I don't want to break something I cannot replace. Before I shot out I thought I would take the tire off. It's pretty clean so my dumb question for today is how to remove the gear so I can remove the rear plate. I can see two grooves cut into the gear and a pin hole in the centre so I'm guessing they align and then I am unsure is there a special tool?
