  • The most common problem you have to deal with on a riding mower is having to put the belt on, after you pushed it a little too hard cutting grass that was too high. Once you know the process it's easy. There's a lot of Pulleys and a lot of different ways you can put the belt on, But there's only one right way. In this video I show the correct way to put the belt back on and then you can get back to cutting grass. I hope you find the video useful.
    And just in case you're curious, I made a list of the most popular items selling on Amazon these days. Pretty interesting...

    I felt like I needed the main pulley last… but couldn’t figure out how to purposefully offset the spring tension without taking something off.

      Glad to hear that you were able to get the belt back on, it’s always a good feeling to know that you can make it happen. If the grass is too heavy and thick it may be necessary to slow the tractor down and cut slower. I find that if I overload the tractor while cutting grass the belt comes off. Of course once you know how to put it on, you just put it on and then you know to take it a little slower. Thanks for the comment back. It was pretty hard putting the belt on and taking a picture of it at the same time. I’m glad it was helpful.

      If it’s loose it probably got stretched while cutting the grass. I’d recommend getting a new belt. If you cut high grass too fast it can stretch it.
