4.4. BELT SERVICE
On these mowers, the engine belt transmits power
from engine to drive disc. The drive disc powers the
poly-v belt which engages the transmission that powers
the rear wheels. Should these belts become worn, they
could cause slippage which would impair mower
performance. The condition of the engine belt and poly-
v belt should be checked after every 25 hours of mower
operation.
4.4.1. Engine Drive Belt Replacement
1. Empty the fuel tank.
2. Unhook the idler spring from the right rear wheel
bracket. See Figures 4.16.
FIGURE 4.16
IMPORTANT: DO NOT tip machine with carburetor or
spark plug down. Oil from crankcase will saturate the air
filter and cause the engine to be hard to start or not start at
all. If contamination does occur, the air filter will have to be
replaced.
3. Remove the driven disc. Refer to Section
“Replacing Driven Disc Rubber Ring” for driven disc
removal procedure.
4. Do not tilt mower with spark plug or carburetor down.
Tilt mower up on its rear wheels and remove blade and
blade hub. Assistance from another person may be
necessary to hold mower in the tilted position.
