I was watching your video, I picked up this mower cheap and needed to replace most of the springs and belt, your video helped showed the location and how to install new-belt, and springs which I have. Great job on video I followed it completely worked like a charm. now good to go! thank you very much:)
I was looking for a video showing the removal of the spring and engaging cable.... Thanks, it looks like I can do that...Good video...I have the Cub Cadet LTX 1042, same set up...
At 11:00 minutes you show the 'L' bracket' under the idler pulley, being mounted on top of the main mounting bracket. It should be underneath that mount being held by the bolt that holds everything together. the short side of the 'L' should be touching the deck.
Thanks for the video, is there any adjustments to make the belt a little tighter ? I just replaced the same belt with the correct part number ,it's flopping more than it should ,
3 screws on each deck belt cover as grass will push the cover up that gets caught under them . The new cub cadest at least have the new covers that don't allow that to happen They are metal and have openings to allow grass to be pushed out . I am having problems with the belt coming off and the screws to the belt holders keep coming down and rubbing on the pulleys . I ordered the new covers for my 2016 cub cadet hydrostatic since the screw holes match it . I am hoping that will solve the problem of the belt coming off while mowing . I also had to level the deck side to side
Are the covers just to keep the user from stepping or knocking something into the pulleys and damaging them? Half tempted just to keep mine off. I get the grass build up as well.
@@beerleagueeverything8030 if you take the covers off the belt keeps coming off . I tried it and belt kept coming off , The metal posts in the covers hold the belt . I hate the plastic covers as they just hold grass that is hard to get out . But found out not as much grass got stuck under the covers when I changed to gator blades and cleaned the underside of my deck and applied slip plate graphite to keep grass from sticking to the underside
@@beerleagueeverything8030 your welcome and plus I ruined 1 belt by taking the covers off . So glad I could help . Try slip plate graphite under you take I have been a fan of it since my son who owns a towing company uses it on his flatbed tow trucks . It is a little expensive for a quart but 1 quart will do 2 lawnmowers and lasts for years and that is doing 3 coats and still some left over so did mny push mower and still sme left . I got my can on e bay
