Cutter Deck Belt Adjustment

5.2.4Wheel drive belts and scrapers.

a)If wheel traction appears to be slipping, drive lever rods may be touching bottom of neutral lock/park brake latch slot. To adjust, refer to directions in Section 3.8.5.

NOTE: There are three (3) adjustment holes for the wheel drive spring tension bolt (Refer to Section 5.2.15).

b)Be sure mud and grass scraper, on each side, is adjusted properly and centered in the pulley grooves. The pointed part of the scraper should be centered and as deep in the pulley groove as possible without rubbing at any point.

5.2.5Engine to cutter deck belt.

a)Stop engine and remove spark plug wire(s).

b)For proper adjustment of lower blade drive linkage, lengthen or shorten linkage. When properly adjusted, there should be 1/16" to 1/8" of clearance between bell-crank and transmission output shaft when belt is engaged.

c)Check belt guides under rear engine and front mower deck to see that they are properly set. (See Section 5.2.7).

d)Belt must be tight enough to not slip during heavy loads while cutting grass. Overtensioning will reduce belt and spindle bearing life. To adjust belt tension, loosen the 5/16" whizlock nut on turnbuckle and rotate the turnbuckle; rotate turnbuckle toward rear of mower to tighten, and toward front of mower to loosen belt tension (See Figure 16).

Check belt tension after the first hour of operation and at least twice during the first 24 hours of operation. Adjust as necessary.
