long grass, either raise the tractor

Drive Belt Adjustment
Before installation/maintenance, the tractor and mower should be
stationary with the hydraulic lift system in a neutral position and the
ignition key removed.
To achieve the correct belt tension, the belt must be deflected by the belt
thickness approx. 1cm at the centre point between the pulleys. Always
align the gearbox so the PTO drive shaft is parallel with the body. Use a
straight edge to ensure the belt pullies are inline and running true.
