Drive belts
7.6.1
Replacing drive belts
Worn belts become stretched, meaning it is always a good idea to replace all belts to ensure forces are distributed
correctly. Drive belts should be replaced with the machine rested on the ground, with the tractor switched off, the PTO
disengaged, the parking brake on and the key removed from the ignition.
If routine checks reveal that belts are too worn - you can see that they are broken, fraying, splitting or otherwise
damaged - replace them by proceeding as follows.
7.6.1.1. Unscrew and remove the five nuts, see Figure 7.15 (1, 2, 3, 4 and 5);
7.6.1.2. Remove the guard; see Figure 7.15 (6);
7.6.1.3. Loosen the 4 nuts, see Figure 6.6 (1, 2, 3 and 4);
7.6.1.4. Turn the nut, see Figure 6.6 (5), anticlockwise so that the belts go completely slack;
7.6.1.5. Replace the worn and/or damaged belt.
