I need to see how the belt is put on, I need see how they go around the tension pulleys,
Experienced gardeners share their insights in answering this question :
You need to post more info on what we are working on. Like model number and the brand name of the tractor. But a rule of thumb when putting on the belts is to put the inside of belt (V) into the pulleys and the outside of belt (flat side) up against the tension idlers. When you get the V’s in the pulleys you just have to use trial and error to get it on the tension idlers (when you don’t have your manual). It shouldn’t be to hard to figure out. When you have it on properly the belt will be snug. Just make sure you do not have the PTO engaged.
Good luck and let me know if this helps.
thanks

How to Identify and Fix Common Gardening Problems ?
We provide a variety of viewpoints on how to identify and fix common gardening problems. Our sources include academic articles, blog posts, and personal essays from experienced gardeners :
However, while all engines are interchangeable, it doesn`t follow that all mower decks are interchangeable. While mower engine manufacturers agree on standard engine mounting specs, no such agreement is in place for any other mower component.
Determine Mower Deck Size
For homeowners with one and a half to three acres to mow, a mower with a cutting deck between 42” to 48” is a good size. Over three acres, you`ll want something larger. Before buying a 72” mower for lawns greater than three acres, consider your terrain.
So, fitting any engine to a different deck is simple. While all engines are changeable, not all mower decks are. The easiest swap is to find a replacement mower deck that matches your old deck or to find a perfect used mower (with a deck of the same type) with a blown engine and change over your good motor.
Are John Deere Mower Decks Interchangeable? Simply put, yes. However, it`s important to check the dimensions and specifications of each mower deck to be sure it aligns with your current mower.
Most builders suggest that your deck should be no larger than 20 percent of the house`s* square footage. This is so that the deck does not overwhelm a home visually. This, of course, is up to you. If you feel you need a larger deck that takes up more of your yard space, feel free!
Riding mowers are best suited for yards measuring one acre or larger. A model with a 42-inch cutting deck is great for mowing up to two acres, so if you have more land than that, you`ll want to spring for a 46, 54, 60, or 72-inch cutting deck.
54” Zero Turn Mower
One of the most common mower sizes, you`ll find that 54” mowers come in all of the leading zero turn mower brands. In this lawn mower deck size, these are strong options for homeowners looking to upgrade their backyard mowing — or for landscapers adding another model to their fleet.
The fabricated mower deck is typically built from heavier plate steel and is a welded mower deck. The stamped mower deck is typically lighter and the mower deck shell is formed by large molds and presses.
