S150X 21HP, 23HP, 25HP & 27HP - 48” & 52” Mower Deck

Check Deck Drive Belt

1.Lower the mower deck to its lowest cutting position.

2.Remove the mower deck guards.

3.Make sure the V-side of the belt runs in the pulley grooves (Figures 20).

WARNING

Use extreme caution when rotating the idler arm with the breaker bar, due to the increased tension in the spring as the idler arm is being rotated. Injury may result if the breaker bar is prematurely released while the spring is under tension.

4.If the belt is not properly seated, use a 1/2” breaker bar, and place the square end in the square hole located in the end of the idler arm (A, Figure 21). Carefully rotate the breaker bar counter clockwise, which will relieve the tension on the belt exerted from the idler arm.

5.Re-seat belt and carefully release the tension on the breaker bar.

6.Reinstall the mower deck guards.
