• Cracking or dry rot on the underside of the belt
• Excessive stretching that prevents the belt from maintaining proper engagement with the pulleys

Installation Tips

• Engage the parking brake and remove the ignition key before starting service
• Lower the mower deck to the lowest setting to provide clearance for removal and installation
• Release tension on the idler pulley to slacken the existing belt
• Ensure the new belt is properly seated within the grooves of all pulleys before reapplying tension
• Verify that the belt path matches the diagram found in your specific tractor’s operator manual
• Cycle the blade engagement handle after installation to ensure the belt seats correctly
