A keyway is located on the drive axle. It is used to stop the pulley from spinning on the axle. Most commonly the key way will be milled into the axle and a small square metal rod will sit inside the key way then the pulley will slide over the key and stop the pulley from spinning on the axle (angular movement), directly opposite the key way there will be a grub screw stopping the pully moving side to side (axial movement).

How do you remove a square key from a lawnmower axle?
If you are removing a rear wheel from a riding mower with a square keyway, there is no need to remove the keyway. The tire and rim will slide off with it in place. The rim is slotted all the way through. After removing the wheel you can simply grab it with pliers if you need to remove it for some reason.

Is there a pulley in a lawnmower?
If it is a push lawnmower, probably (Although I have seen one with an electric starter). If it is a riding mower, probably not. On a push mower, the hub where the blade is bolted onto is attached to the engine driveshaft via a keyway and a fastener (nut). Therefore, the blade is not driven by a pulley. On the contrary, on a riding mower, the blades are usually driven by a belt that transfers motion from the engine shaft pulley to another pulley that spins the blade(s).
