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 4.15 and 4.16.
FIGURE 4.15
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 on
“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.
