1811 w/45" snowblower belt problems
If anyone might be able to help. I just installed a 45" snowblower to my 1811. I believe it is a model 364? it is black with a full length frame under it. I had to make the rear mounting brackets and the front angle iron bracket. For some reason when I turn on the PTO the belt comes off every time. I can't see where there is anything seized up. there is quite a bit of play in the whole front PTO bracket where it connects to the front of the tractor. The angle iron brace in the front the aligns the front of the blower frame fits very tight over the frame. maybe this is causing it to push the PTO bracket where it shouldn't be. Also I did notice that the tension pulley for the belt seems to be slightly offset. If anyone knows much about these and could help me troubleshoot it would be greatly appreciated. Also it is a brand new Dayton belt from my Cub dealer. they didn't have a cub one in stock. Thanks.
