4.4 BELT SERVICE
On these mowers, the engine belt transmits power
from engine to drive disc. The drive disc powers the
poly-v belt, which engages the transmission that
powers the rear wheels. Should these belts become
worn, they could cause slippage, which would impair
mower performance. The condition of the engine belt
and poly-v belt should be checked after every 25
hours of mower operation.
4.4.1. Engine Drive Belt Replacement
(Stretch Type Belts)
1. Empty the fuel tank.
2. Note the belt routing in Figure 4.16. There is no
idler pulley on these models to disconnect. See
Figure 4.16.
