While doing pre-winter service on my tough cut mower I had it lifted up for blade removal, sharpening, and replacement. (The All American Sharpener model 5005EXT and an angle grinder make accurate sharpening easy on clockwise and counter clockwise blades.) In lowering the deck, I did not notice that the main belt (B162? had slipped a sheave where it was in path of the frame supports on their way down. The supports cut the belt as if they were the sharpest of scissors clean cut all the way through!
I found a new belt on Amazon (most all of these belts are standard) at a decent price ($41.00). This is a LONG belt and the diagram for replacement is convoluted. I had to take both sides of the lift frame loose to get the job done, but the owner痴 manual only said to remove the left side. Any way, got it done and put to bed for winter. Keep your eyes on the belts when lowering the mower deck.
