The following text was inadvertently omitted from the Maintenance & Adjustment section of the manual.
Keep this addendum with the operator's manual at all times.
Belts
Inspect belts frequently for wear and serviceability. Replace a belt that shows signs of severe cuts, tears, separation, weather
checking and cracking, or burns caused by slipping. Slight raveling of belt covering does not indicate failure, trim ravelings
with a sharp knife.
If the pump belt fails, loss of control will occur especially
when operating on a slope. If you lose steering control
while operating the machine, place the steering con-
trol levers in the park brake position immediately.
Inspect the machine and involve your Hustler dealer
to resolve the problem before continuing to operate.
Inspect the belt pulley grooves and flanges for wear. A new belt, or one in good condition, should never run against the
bottom of the groove. Replace the pulley when this is the case, otherwise belt will lose power and slip excessively.
Never pry a belt to get it on a pulley as this will cut or damage the fibers of the belt covering.
Keep oil and grease away from belts, and never use belt dressings. Any of these will destroy the belt composition in a very
short time.
