I got the manual now. Thanks. PTO belt is on and the other one goes from the small pulley to the auger pulley. Going to try to get out and get that one tomorrow.

Thanks again for everyones help. I got the belt on that was a nightmare ! I got it from Tractor Supply its a huskee kevlar belt . Does that make it not want to give as much?

A belt should never forced over the pulleys, hard on the pulleys and harder on the belt.
That said, sometimes you have to do what you have to do in a pinch, and later fix the adjustment so it goes easily. BTDT.

I'm having a hard time seeing it from here to be sure you have it properly installed. Pics would help.

Its on and working. I didnt see any adjustment for the for the auger belt. Its dark here now I did some but the tires were spinning on my garage floor but saw it in action was a good feeling to see it work finally. I lift mech popped apart and a sring fell out so I called it quits. Ill look into that tomorrow. Want to get some of the driveway cleared as I hear another storm could be heading my way next weekend.

You will need weights and chains with the snowblower. If memory serves me they had a weight bracket that attached to the rear frame on the 2000 series. Then the weights hung on that. Don't think they make wheel weights for the 2130 wheels but you can add some liquid inside the tires.

The weights are on . The chains seem to be missing something or just the wrong ones all together. How much of a difference could adding liquid to the tires make? I figured I weigh 240 lbs that would have helped some .
