Just recently got myself a second job working for a local echo bear cat and exmark dealer , hope my experience goes better than uncle andy’s did , it should because I watch Taryl fixes all. Thanks guys for another awesome video!
Another useful and entertaining video, Taryl. That Uncle Andy is a character! Good to see him making an appearance!
Took my mower to Atlantic Tractor because I couldn’t figure out why the belt was coming off. After $250 it was still popping off. I replaced the parts in this video for $15 and bam, no more problems. Thanks a lot for the help!!
This guy rocks I really enjoy watching his videos .nd he knows his trade well Thanks guys keep up the good work .!!!!
Robert Burge thanks fer watchin'! Glad to have ya. And there's yur dinner!
Thanks so much for the info! I had this problem a LOT on my JD L130. Ordered the new part and it fixed it right up! Really appreciate the info.
Thanks this may help in the future when ones comes in with this problem
You guys have the best channel by far!
Had also Deck Belt coming off L120. Even changed Pulley guard mentioned in video. same problem. Solution was I had installed the middle spindle pulley upside down. Had previously replaced middle spindle and installed pulley unside down. There is a 1" height difference on belt run depending how pulley installed. Pulley has a off-center mount face - which side installed makes a difference. Belt skips off pulley & slackness makes belt jump off PTO drive. Making u think problem is with belt skipping off PTO drive & not with belt run along deck.
First couple of times I watched this channel I didn’t care for the clown show but as time went on I found myself here more often as I own a John Deere and now I find this channel fun and full of invaluable information. Thanks so much for all of your knowledge!
I have an old JD LA130 and with the help of this video I was able to solve my belt problem without having to spend $100's of dollars at the dealer buying everything but what I need!!!
Here go fetch my pen! That was awesome! You kick butt Taryl!
Ya pay for boring on line classes, here you learn more, have fun, an can't wait in till the next one
Self threading bolts for the spindle. Priceless information.
That's what Craftsman had and loctited 'em to boot. When you went to replace them the spindle mounts broke off. Now I drill through and put nuts on the spindle mount bolts. REbuildable now instead of throw away.
That threw me off last week when I had to replace mine. I happen to have a tap and I just cut new threads.... Should be as good or better then cutting with the new bolts.
Well said. I had a 25 year old Craftsman mower I scrapped the deck because of spindle bolts. I could not drill out one of the spindle bolts. Nothing I did worked. Discovered cobalt drill bits 3 years later.
Mine just wrung off but the new ones won't! Also filled in the 'vent' (mulching, and I use the term loosely) holes around the spindles with resin down to the 'coffee can' spindle protectors up to the top of the deck. No more rust hiding spots and E A S Y to blow off and clean up now.
Mr Taryl, thank you sir for another good video and all the helpful information.I hope you do a lot more videos, I enjoy them.Thanks again.
I love the "Uncle Andy" song, but Slipper's MC Hammer inspired "Don't Touch Me" was genius.
As always......another great video!!!!
Honestly if I come into some money I have to go to taryls shop .I have to meet him and crew .it's the best channel from a NZ grass rat lol love you're work guys
jonesing for landscaper blues that song rocks dude
Taryl, You have good entertaining, funny and informative videos.
I’ve had a few Andy’s work for me in the past...past....you are fired!
i like when says ."inter screen "
Uncle Andy sounds like he caught a sore throat from being in the carnival dunk tank.
Great. Now they can fix the D-105 . My manual says it's adjustable at the cable but that pc isn't slotted and was factory welded! I've tried bending the bracket and that helps some. Brand new belts work about 1 mow till they stretch. The problem is when the belt is disengaged (that's when it jumps) While mowing it doesn't slip at all. I'm seriously going to try a shorter belt.
This is exactly my problem! I bought a used La135. The owner said he had to buy a new deck for it as the original got warped bad after hitting a root. This new deck that is on it doesn't have the adjustable cable bracket on the deck. I had an old stx46 that had the bracket so I know exactly what you're talking about. It's an l bracket with with slotted holes for the two 10mm bolts to allow adjustment. From what I've been able to tell John Deere superseded any of the older adjustable style bracket decks with this new deck with the bracket welded. I too can't see any adjustment at the engagement handle (not that there would be on mine versus yours). I mean short of putting a custom cable in the sleeve or grinding the bracket off and fabricating my own adjustable bracket I'm not sure what to do.
This mower worked fine like this till the deck belt the guy put on it snapped. It was the same style and look as the oe belts but it had to be some custom length. I've tried numerous brands of 42" John Deere deck belts and they all slip off when coming off from being engaged. I will say engaging the deck sounds rough too.
Ever find a solution?
Good video guys. Father in law has 1 of those JD’s. Know he has problems with belt staying on I’ll have to look at it. Thanks. Have you ever thought about building a racing mower? I’d like to see that on your toys videos. Have a good 1.
I think this applies to just about any mower and that is don't engage the pto at full engine speed ,usually 1/4 - 1/3 is plenty as long as it don't stall the engine and saves on the electric clutch and disengaging the blade at just above idle gives the blades time to slow down and will almost never throw the belt unless you have pulley alignment problems.
good laugh guys, reminds me of hoolihan and big chuck from when i was a kid
He wants the RatchetThat goes the other way! You guys are funny✌️
If anyone has a hard time finding hard to find or 'obsolete' lawn mower parts go to -- Petes Small Engine ,they had everything I needed.I am restoreing a 1992 murry 11hp 36" deck.
Great info, thanks.
I have L180 It has the upgraded part on it. And that bushing is the cause of my belt coming off all the time. I fixed the problem after replacing the bushing X4.and the Idler bracket X2. I still had the problem. Then I decided to grind down the bottom of the bushing (since I had 4 new ones) until I had only 20 thousand's below the idler bushing and moly2 (bearing grease) the Idler assembly where it connects with the deck. After that, I have gone 150 hrs with 0 belts coming off. That Idler assembly bushing can still let the idler pully travel too much even new!
Andy reminds me a lot of slippers..... LMAO are they related..... LMAO
I have an E180 lawn tractor. It has the idler bracket with the 2 belt retainers. My belt STILL comes off after a few minutes of use ! I replaced 2 belt pulleys that were " spun " . All other bearings and wheels are in good order. Any suggestions??
Dinner, IS Ready!!...Thanks ...
I have a SCOTTS 42" and wondered if this new bracket was available for my mower and if I might find just the new spring? On just the bushing?
Is the spring supposed to be reattached in the other hole as well or was that one wrong to start with?
Great video. Do I need the upgraded bracket? My belt come off too much. I have a John Deere LA125??
Johnny wilson, South Carolina.
On my LX 460 the belt kept coming off, and it was a pain to remove deck to put back on, so I took my grinder and cut a 4 x 6 hole in the floor board, now I can take a wooden dowel and punch the belt back behind the roller, good to go. But it only happens when I try to cut it lower then 3.
Deere actauly reccomends that you use new bolts when replacing the spindles. They stretch when installed from the factory and can snap off when attempting to reuse them, or be weak and shear off during use. Haven't seen it as much in the last few years, but a lot of them would snap when you remove the old spindle.
Mine has started throwing the belt. My mechanic was trying to tighten up that pulley because it was wobbling too much and throwing the belt. He said just today it needed another belt keeper.
Looks like this part will fix that problem.
Have him change the Idler pulleys while he's at it. ua-cam.com/video/E7LCn7ngYRs/v-deo.html
Oh crap slippers is so funny !!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
This looks promising for keeping me out of a lot of arguments with my gf.
I put on a new drive belt about 2 months ago and it is already slipping. The belt is / was GX20006 (89 x 1/2) I wonder if I can use a shorter belt, say 88"?
This is the unfortunate scenario many face when trying to find worthwhile employees these days. Especially among the millennial generation.
Oh, and they want $15 and hr. and a benefits package.
papakernz I remember in 07 I started working at a Kroger and 3 days later another guy started and when they told him to go get the carts (with 4-6" of snow) he actually thought they were crazy. Me I just put my yaktrax on my boots and go at it.
papakernz because child supports a bitch
Unless they know 'everything' and can do NOTHING!
Nobody forced you to spread your seed. Child support exists to help raise your son/daughter because you do not.
How do you figure my UA-cam comments place a financial burden on society the way your decision making does?
Hi guys, we enjoy the videos. Is there an adjustment for the drive belt on the la120? I replaced the belt but it is still slipping going up hills. If I continue to hold throttle down I can hear the belt squealing, then it will take off and work correct for a while. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you
I've got the 120 series . When my deck is set at a low cutting height there's not enough tention to spin the blades. When its at a higher cutting height it works fine. Why might that be?
Do you have any suggestions for la110 belt breaks
I have replaced 2 or 3 belts in 5 years on my L118. The belt kept stretching. I finally drilled another hole in the deck giving me more adjustment reach on that little 10mm bracket. Will the part replacement you did fix that problem too, or will I keep having to replace the belt?
Funny! So, have you experienced this problem with a JD E-170 ride-on? I'm having the problem right now.
hey so my model 318 is throwing the belt the main one not the pulleys for the blades same deal? Check all the pulleys and check all the bearings see what the hell is loose and throwing the belt when I engage the PTO it throws the belt right off
I have a John Deer E100 that I purchased from a guy and the belt will not stay on this mower. I have put several different sizes to try to make this belt stay on. It just will not stay on. The belt tension bracket is the welded on bracket so no adjustment. how can I get the belt to stay on. All covers are on, new belt guide in front, all bearings and pulleys in great shape. mower has 45 hours on it. What can I do???? Please help
Is the 110 series the same way cause I've tighten the tensioner but it keeps coming off
What about a 190C any mods Belt coming off????
Great video! I have the same problem with my Scott's 2548 made by John Deere, which bracket will I need to fix it?
Is the serial 150,000 number your referring to the mower or the mount? And would you recommend replacement of the spring as well ?
is there a update like this for the john deere sabre?....does not like deck belts...i had to rig up extra guards around the pulley
DO they have the same thing for the srub cubidiot? Mine at low engine speed keeps throwing the belt. its good at hi engine speed. I replaced all the pulleys and tensioner but still keep throwing the belt. When it does it you have to take off the tensioner in order to get the belt back on. You guys rock keep them come Grass Rats #1 Fan.
Great video guys. Need help. have the same problem with a model 155c. do they make an upgraded idler arm part for this model. thank you.
Look at when you pulled the pry bar off the pulley wheel, it looked like the belt jumped back off and dropped below the pulley.
Do you have any videos on the John deere l120 rear differential k46 from tuff torq ? Mines giving me issues ...
My LA140 went from sounding normal to smoking with a lower toneing sound in the motor. Can you please help me figure it out. I think it's the head gasket but not sure if it's that or something else.
Does this work with LA135. ? I’m super new to the whole John Deere mowers.
What part for a la110?
I've got a exmark lazer and the blade belt keeps twisting around backwards around the clutch pulley. I put a brand new ExMark belt and it's doing the same thing. Any ideas what's causing this? Everything looks like it's lined up and straight
I’ve got a John Deere F510. The belt comes off or it cuts it. Do you have any ideas how to fix it?
I have a la135 which number would be the one,
Are these the same parts for the Scott's (manufactured by John Deere) 1742?
La100 eats deck belts. Guess I might feed it parts. Down lots. Still like manual Trany. Thnx
This is kind of how our shop is without all the acting. At least two of us (the two that know how to look your videos up) watch your videos regularly.
Damn your good.
I wonder if this can apply to the L110 because my deck threw a brand new belt after around 2 hrs of operation with nothing unusual about installation. I have replaced many deck belts over the last 20 years on this machine and thisis the 1st time it's thrown a belt.
Can anyone advise me please ?
I got the upgrade and it still comes off
Cant find the bushing gy23240 can you send me a link please
👍”Extra Do-Dads” lol!👍
Good video Taryl⛏😬
How do you remove the transmission control lever for a john deere d140
What about a LT180? I can’t find anything
Taryl what's the part number for the spring and bushing

Snakey is a better employee than Uncle Andy.
or the dummy!
Goomer Mr Test Light and Mr Paint Pen are better employees too!
Heck I wear suspenders when I ride my JD
If it’s bent a little bit will it pop the belt off??
quality video of a quality mower. one of these is sarcasm, you can guess which. a good cub would eat that thing alive
Hey Darryl just got a new old jd 110 mower , the belt keeps coming off?
which new belt guide would be for a 102 series model bg 20311
Another great video Taryl! Dad has a D170 54" deck and if he ever has issues with the belt flying off, I'll know what to look for. In case it has the old style pulley bracket.
BTW, how come you don't have any videos on rear engine HI-VAC Snappers?
Hey dack, what would be a good rpm to run a 42 cc poulan pro 4218A model
I have a cub cadet ltx 1045 with 46" dual blade cutting deck, every belt I put on bounces like crazy when the cutting deck is off. When I engage the blades it mows fine. As soon as I shut it off the belt bounces and breaks. All belt keepers are close so the belt is not falling off the pulleys. Any way to fix ?
check the angle of the belt,when engaged ,you dont need to run it to tell if alignments stuffed,they are bad for that!
Do they make a upgrade kit for a d105 John deere that belt keeps coming off serial # 613468 ?
that looks weird with belt alignment from deck to the engine pulley. belt pulled to one- side not central
I got a 175 john deere mower that keeps poping the pto belt and deck belt off need help.
Hey little buddy I got a LA 100 John Deere is there a way to tighten the transmission belt?
I just picked up a new spark plug necklace
far out!
i tried dis but i welded it to the deck now i have huge hole in the deck i try to weld the hole that was when i tiried weld , now i have a huge hole and it get bigger and bigger , my welder can only put out 100amps 220volt under that it no ignite the stick..2 inch hole in the deck :/
I have a troybilt bronco. I changed my belt but it's very lose and comes off everytime I dis engage it. And when I drop the deck to cut the grass it slows way down till it stops. How can I adjust the belt and fix this POS? Thank you
Taryl do you ever use impact sockets? Very good video.
So, where do we get that cap that you’re wearing in the video that says ‘Taryl Fixes All’?? I want one!!!
Inisfad there's 2 orange ones left in our online store: www.tarylfixesall.bigcartel.com and There's Your Dinner!!
Taryl Fixes All Not any more....LOL. :). Thanks for the info!
Better way to put belt on is just use the 15mm bolt.. wrench or ratchet, just push fwd
I have a 1992 murry rider 11hp 36 " deck. I can't find parts for it, can anyone help?
Oh ! I'm pretty sure I'm a Holden whose been treated like that by half the Holdens who are just like that - they probably just play solitaire all day & keep on treating me like I have no idea what jobs are !!!!
Most of them that I know of are CLOSED !!!!
They just played solitaire & just think I'm like my grandmother is now - DEAD !!!!
I have to keep on thinking why I can just keep on getting onto THAT form of person where she is now - at Beresfield where a lot of that form of person was - most of that industry there is closed down & they can't figure out why I've been unemployed for almost 6 years.
I can throw THAT pen outside then shut the door on them probably !!!!
Half of my family is like that anyway - a lot of that side that's a Holden (Williams), my uncle had an old ride on lawn mower in 2011 I think, it had a twin coil (2 coils in 1) setup,it didn't go because it had no spark,my uncle thought it was just spark plugs,so he went & bought a brand new John Deere lawnmower.
He gave the lawn mower to my grandfather but I'm not sure what he did with it,perhaps he sold it the way it was or got a new coil fitted to it then sold it,I don't know !!!!
I went to his place a few months ago to fix an electrical fault to do with his caravan & what do you know,my uncle gave him that lawnmower 6 or so years later !!!!
So, he bought another brand new ride on lawnmower, his old one had nothing wrong with it !!!!
My grandfather probably sold his old ride on lawnmower, meaning with me it will get to the point that I'll find out that it's now worth my while buying new mowers every 5 - 6 years !!!!
So now, whose saying that I don't have a clue what jobs are ????
It seems like that they don't think that I have an idea !!!!
Yep, and this is THE place to vent family problems.
lol,shoulda stuck to ford.......mvm!
You put the spring in the wrong spot on the deck. The spring goes into the small slot in the deck, not the round hole.
