44 Iinch 11.5 Hp Trailmower #T11544

Broke or wore out the belt. Purchased a new OEM belt and put on. Unfortunately i must have put it on incorrectly as it worked for about 20 minutes fine and then the belt just shredded. I found a diagram about how the belt should go on but obviously there must be more to it.

Thanks

Mower Won`t Start

First, check your gas levels. This might seem obvious, but many times, a mower that won`t start is simply out of fuel. If gas isn`t the issue, check your mower`s spark plugs and ensure they are connected, tightened, and cleaned. Your mower might struggle to turn on if the air filter is dirty.

There is approximately 4 inches of height adjustment. Rotate height adjust crank handle in a clockwise direction to lower the mower deck. counter-clockwise direction to lift the mower deck. Dense areas of material should be cut twice.
There is approximately 1 ½” to 4 ½” of height adjustment. Rotate height adjust crank handle(s) in a clockwise direction to lift the mower deck. A counter-clockwise direction is used to lower the mower deck.
Loose, Dirty or Disconnected Spark Plug in Your Lawn Mower: Check it out, clean off debris, re-connect and tighten. Dirty Air Filter: Clean or replace. Fuel Not Reaching the Engine: Tap the side of the carburetor to help the flow of gas. If this doesn`t work, you might need a new fuel filter.
If a mower is hard to start, it may be the result of a dirty carburetor and/or a clogged air filter. Use a screwdriver to remove the carburetor and clean any dirt out of it with a rag. Clean the air filter or replace it if it`s disposable.
Possible cause 1: In some models, when you tip the mower, fuel can leak into the carbon in the cap, which restricts the venting of the fuel system. This can cause the engine not to start, or only run for a few minutes, then quit. POSSIBLE SOLUTION: Leave the cap to dry out or replace it with a new lawn mower cap.
