CARE AND MAINTENANCE - MODEL ZTR 1001

BELT TENSION 42" & 50" DECKS:

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:

Refer to illustration for adjustment procedure.
