Great, helpful vid. Thanks! You didnt discuss it, but your vid shows an L-shaped small yellow "support arm" beneath the left idler that's missing from my deck. I'm thinking that without that one small ridgid-support part that my belts are prone to shredding. I'll fab something similar. Thanks again
I seem to be having a issue with right side idler pulley "pivot", moves but seems to have "drag" on it, before disconnecting cable and spring from idler pulley bracket... now it moves freely. Do you have any videos on repairing this?
My deck right side rear wheel broke off at the weld with the hole just like yours. Did you ended up re-welding it? Or just leave it? Did it affect anything by not having the rear wheel there?
update to the below, I cut my lawn today and did notice some low spots when turning and on uneven terrain. I am gonna fabricate a mount, weld it on and add a wheel. I'll make a video but it will be awhile. Thanks for pointing it out
I’m having a really annoying time with this. Ordered a few different belts for my machine (same as yours) and the last one is the same part number as the one you used but it’s too short. Like just too short. Not enough to wrap around the pulley. Getting really annoyed with this crap.
@@matthewchamberlain1205 they can be tight sometimes, double check your deck is in the off position. Also if you haven’t already you can try and feed it on the front by pulling it across and spinning. There is a pic from the manual of this in the video

Fantastic video helped out tremendously
Thanks, easy job, Front belt guard I only removed the right side bolt and worked the belt on pulley. Only had 50 hrs. Seems low for a new belt?
Does seem low

I don't recall the bolt size but a standard socket set will have you covered
i don't see a link for parts dude, and i see pretty good.
See again

until you commented this I never realized it was missing a wheel... Mine cuts amazing so i wouldn't sweat it

Why didn’t you pull the darn deck out so people can see my gosh
I think the video is pretty clear and viewable, but you can make a video and show me how it could be better.

Why does everyone want to take off the deck to replace the belt? Lol
The deck is designed for quick removal, it takes 30 seconds to drop it for more workspace so why wouldn't I?
