Deck belt replacement

[Rusty Nails]

Thank you very much for letting me join, I am a new owner of the Kabota
BX 2200, looking for a video to change the deck belt. Any suggestions would be awesome!

Ill assume its like the BX 1500. Force the old belt to derail on the chute side pulley by lifting the forward side of it with a gloved hand while turning the blade with your other hand. You then have to remove only the steel bracket on the deck transmission to allow you to remove the old belt and substitute the new. It is 4 bolts -- 2 into deck, 2 into trans. BE SURE to reassemble and tighten the bracket before applying tension/re railing the new belt by overcoming the spring tensioner similarly as done during removal/derailing.

Thanks you Spyderlk, I am looking forward to installing the new belt and new sharpened blades. Looked every where on the net to see if I could find a video of this but not much luck on the Kabota. all kinds of videos on removing the deck! I think I can do this and service the drive box..
