QUESTION: PN:7016726 TRANSMISSION, Hydro (HG BDU-105-120)
Snapper LT14H411KV
I had a bearing failure in the hydro and I replaced it. But in the process of tear down I had some parts fall out so I did not see proper placement for assembly. Where can I get an exploded view of this hydro? And I might need one of the shafts, Where can I get them?

ANSWER: Hello Randal:

The HG Stands for Hydro-Gear (the OEM). The Hydro Model should be a BDU-10S-120. I Will Call my Snapper Contact and Verify this Model Number. It May be that Snapper has Substituted the Letter S for a Number 5 in their Breakdowns. You can View the Breakdown at this Site Addy; http://www.ordertree.com/cms/parts-lookup-help/73.html and Select the Manufacturer (Hydro-Gear). Then Select your Model Hydro (BDU-10S-120). Then Select View Parts Manual PDF. If for some Reason this is Not your Hydro, let me know. If Hydro Gear says the Actual Hydro Model is a BDU-105-120, then I will have them Give me the Proper Site Addy and Direction to get you to the Proper Breakdown. If you Hit a Snag or this Does Not Correct the Problem,  I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Hope this Helps. Let me Know What Happens, Please. May the All Mighty Bless You and Yours. Thanks.

Good Luck
