craftsman riding mower belt problem
I have a craftsman DLT 25 hp riding mower. The drive belt keeps coming off.
I bought a new belt and still have the same problem. It happens when I stop and shift from a forward to reverse. Any ideas? Thanks. |

Bent or worn pulley. Bad bearings on pulley shaft.

It seems to be fixing the problem. David -- Message posted via HomeKB.com http://www.homekb.com/Uwe/Forums.aspx/repair/200804/1 |
