We have a 72" Befco rear discharge mower behind a Kubota B-7800. It was bought in Jan of this year and has only been used 8-10 times this year with the drought. I recently put some high lift blades on it and since then it has thrown the belt twice. It seems to happen every third mowing or so and I can't seem to put a finger on what's going on. All the pulleys run smooth with no apparent wobble and no obvious misalignment. There is no vibration that I can feel that is different from the first use.
Any thoughts guy's.

It sure sounds like your belt tensioner is not doing the job.
On my 60" Befco, there are two positions for the tensioner.

I can't say with certainty that's your problem, but check your manual for the belt tensioner information.
