CARE AND MAINTENANCE
BELT TENSION:
ENGINE TO MOWER DECK BELT:
No adjustment required.
Correct belt tension is maintained through a fixed engine location and a spring
loaded idler system.
A pulsing movement of the belt idler will be observed both during engagement of
the electric blade clutch and actual operation of the mower deck.
NOTE: Engagement of the electric blade clutch switch may produce a sharp
high pitched chirp or squeal as the belt tension loading is absorbed by
the idler system. This is normal and not a sign of failure.
MOWER DECK SERPENTINE BELT: P/N 6109
Refer to illustration for adjustment procedure.
P/N 7725
