I have a JD 214 and after the PTO/mower deck have run for a while (2-20 minutes) the belt twists so that the V is not in the PTO groove (it's "upside down").

Can anyone suggest possible causes/solutions?

Thanks!

Maybe like a tensioner arm is bent or worn so the belt alignment isn't good?

What is the best way to check for that?
