BELT REPLACEMENT
Note:
Always use Schiller Grounds Care, Inc.replacement belts, not general purpose
belts. Schiller Grounds Care, Inc. belts are specially designed for use on commercial
mowers and will normally last longer.
CUTTERDECK BELT
1. Remove center, left and right belt guards.
2. Set the cutterdeck in a middle height-of-cut posi-
tion.
3. Loosen bolt on belt guide so belt guide can be
moved to remove the belt.
4. Insert 3/8" ratchet extension in hole A on the
idler arm to back tensioning idler off to remove
belt from idler. Remove belt from cutterdeck
pulleys.
5. Remove belt from clutch pulley.
6. Install the new belt by performing these steps in
reverse order.
7. Cutterdeck spring will require tension adjustment
after belt installation. Adjust eyebolt so the dis-
tance between the inside of the eyebolt and the
inside of the hook is 6-3/4 ± 1/8".
TRANSAXLE DRIVE BELT
1. Remove engine-cutterdeck belt. (See cutterdeck
belt above)
2. To remove transaxle drive belt, use a 3/8" ratchet
and extension. Insert ratchet extension in the
square hole
A
of the transaxle idler arm. Rotate
enough to remove the transaxle drive belt.
3. Install a new transaxle drive belt by performing
these steps in reverse order.
NOTE: Inspect the fans. Replace if worn or
damaged.
5. Reinstall cutterdeck belt and guards.
NOTE:
After usage of the machine, the belt will seat
into the pulleys and reduce the length of the
spring. DO NOT READJUST THE EYEBOLT.
This is normal. If you do adjust the eyebolt, you
will over tension the belt, greatly reducing the
belt's life.
