Need a lil help
 

Ok here is my problem, here lately i keep having the same problem with my 122 and my 86. My 122 you can put a new belt on it and mow bout 1 round then it throws it off, and will do this repeatedly, ive put new pulleys, springs, and so on, its the belt from the engine to the deck.

Now my 86 shreads belts on the deck itself, the one for the blades, i put a new one on and mowed half my yard and well its flying apart.

So if anyone can help me out here Id appreicate it alot

did you adjust the belts correctly.

yes i did and they still throw the belts off.

it does have the correct belt right?:bigthink:

Are you using Cub belts or aftermarket?

Can you post pictures of mower deck and mule drive? What we want to see is the angle of the pulleys in relation to the belt. Someone here may spot the problem.

Is the mower on the 122 a pin on deck? If so the eye bolts on the front of the mower are bent. By new ones that could fix the problum on the 122.
On the 86 ar you using OEM belt? I use the belts from TSC that has kevlar in them the oem i found out does not last long but the TSC belt has lasted a year and im still using it. I how this helps you out.

i will get pics tomorrow morning ASAP. im pretty sure the mule drive pulleys r straight in relation to the deck on the 122. as for the 86 im using after market belts on both mowers and the decks. if using TSC belts or Cub belts will help me get my problems straighted out some i will go tht route. but i will get pics of both tractors on here so yall can help me out cuz im a stand still here

i use TSC belts and i adjusted them correctly and it works great.

Hi, What size TSC belts do you use? I was at TSC and all they have are 1/2" belts. What 1/2'x? would you use instead of a 3/8"x 80 or 81". I know i"ll have to change the mule drive pullys. Thanks Mike
