OCPTY Electric Power Take Off Clutch Electric PTO Clutch 117-7468 Fit for Exmark for Toro: 117-7468

What It Is

This is an electric PTO (power take-off) clutch that engages and disengages the mower blades on zero-turn mowers. It’s designed as a direct replacement for OEM part 117-7468, commonly used on Exmark and Toro commercial and residential zero-turn models.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, verify these three things:

• OEM part number: This clutch replaces Toro/Exmark 117-7468. Confirm your current clutch has that number stamped on it.
• Voltage & wiring: It’s a 12V DC clutch with a 2-wire connector. Check your mower’s wiring harness matches (same pin configuration).
• Physical dimensions: The clutch has a 1-inch bore, 4.5-inch outer diameter, and 3-bolt mounting pattern (holes spaced 3.5 inches apart). Measure your old clutch or mounting bracket to confirm.
• Model fit: Fits many Exmark Lazer Z, Turf Tracer, and Toro Z-Master models from the late 1990s through early 2010s. Cross-reference your mower’s model/serial number with the manufacturer’s parts list.

Key Things to Know

• Aftermarket quality: This is an aftermarket replacement, not OEM. It’s generally reliable for residential and light commercial use, but may have slightly shorter lifespan than OEM under heavy daily use.
• Installation difficulty: Moderate. You’ll need basic hand tools (socket set, torque wrench) and may need to remove the deck or belt guard. Expect 1-2 hours if you’re handy. A shop manual helps.
• Common gotchas:
  • The air gap between the clutch and rotor must be set to 0.010–0.015 inches using a feeler gauge. Too tight or too loose causes slipping or failure.
  • The pulley may come with a pre-installed bearing; ensure it spins freely before mounting.
  • Check belt condition and tension—a worn belt can quickly destroy a new clutch.
• Warranty: Most sellers offer 1-year warranty. Keep your receipt and verify return policy before purchase.

Should You Buy It

If you need a budget-friendly replacement for a worn OEM 117-7468 clutch on a residential or light commercial zero-turn mower, this is a solid pick. It’s not for heavy daily commercial use or mowers with high-hour expectations, but for occasional mowing or small properties, it delivers reliable performance at half the OEM price.
