I noticed my JD F911 front mount mower heating up today and after it cooled down I discovered that the fan belt had come off. I was able to get it back on but it still seems loose. I can't see a way to tighten it and wondering if someone here has the information as I am unable to find anything on the internet so far. This has the Kawasaki horizontal shaft engine on it.
Thanks in advance

I don’t know anything about that mower, but generally a fan belt is tightened by loosening the alternator, then moving the alternator until the belt is tighter, and the re-tighten the alternator in that position.

It’s possible that your fan belt is stretched; maybe that’s why it came off.

Suspect shims in the driving pulley to get the belt tight. Should show in the manual.

A good pic of the belt and the lower pulley would help with suggestions if the manual is not any help.
