Also, use either a Cub belt or a belt made to run in differnt directions. Forget what you call them but they cost more than the run of the mill belts. The run of the mill will not hold up long.

Mike, It is a 50" deck. I will probably pull the deck off tomorrow and I can take photos if necessary. The routing for the belts on the deck all look in okay condition, it was the actual belt that drives the main pulley from the PTO to the deck that jumped and shredded.
Thanks for your response.
