To check belt tension, gently squeeze the belt spans
together. You should be able to push the belt down
about 6–10 mm (1/4–3/8 inch) from the original
position.
Important:
To extend the belt life, proper tension must
be maintained. A loose belt will cause excessive cutting
wheel slippage and early belt failure. A belt that is too
tight can cause bearing and shaft failure, and rapid belt
wear.
Adjusting the Drive Belt
1.
Remove the belt guard.
2.
Loosen the 4 engine mounting bolts, and jam nuts
holding the adjustment bolt (Figure 21).
