Snow gtx2154le w/snowblower

[harleyizy]

Took out my gtx2154le with 48" snowblower out yesterday. It blew great then it snapped the belt to the snow blower. went back to dealer and was given a new belt. Put new belt on. Ran blower for about another 15-20 minutes and belt snapped again. Dealer came and picked it up today. (Of course, it's snowing again.) Has anyone else had this problem?

Yes, I snapped 2 belts the same way. The tractor only had 12 hours on it. I took out the tractor 3 times so far this winter to snow blow and each time I could not finish snow blowing. Got pissed and traded it in for an yanmar Sc2400. I showed have my new tractor early next week. Oh... My old tractor with all the problems is a 2012 cub cadet gtx 2000. It's a great tractor for mowing a lawn but not for snowbliwing.

i am almost thinking if there is a replacement belt made out of kevlar?

Got my tractor back Monday. Problem was with pulley alignment. Dealer made adjustments and put new belt on. Tryed it out when I got it home and it seems fine. All is good. Will let everyone know if situation changes. By the way, dealer was great.
