Thanks Jim, I ordered the disc. It is cheap enough that I can order a few for spare part. Hopefully I can get it done this weekend. It is very cold here in New England so I am not looking forward to an easy time :(

Hi,

I have tried to look but I can only find the serial number, not the Model number. The model number is 10ML60. I am posting some photos here see if someone can recognize the model number.

If it could help, another thing that I noticed is that the system uses no chain. It is all gear driven. I saw a few instruction on the net for removing the friction disc from a chain system, but mine doesn't have any chain at all. Just gears.

Hi all,

I purchased an old (pretty old I would said)  Ariens 6HP (Tecum engine). I am not sure how old it is and what is it model number. What I see is that it has a white engine instead of black as in some other Ariens snow thrower. It was working for sometime but now it doesn't move anymore. I opened the bottom plate and saw that the rubber on the friction disc felt out so I guess the friction disc is broken. Would you be able to help me locate the part to buy and  how to replace it.

Another bit of information, I measured the diameter of the friction disc, it appears to be about 5 1/2 - 5 3/4 inch.

Thank you for your help.
