Mower Belt

Recommended Posts

Hey Gang,

Got a couple of questions about the ol' hoss.

1. I've got the 1980 C-165 Auto with the 42" SD deck (model # 5-1011-42").

What I need is the part number for the proper drive belt. PO used a automotive type belt and it finally died a messy death.

2. How tight is tight, on the mule drive?

Thanks,

Greg B.

My book shows a P/N 102742 belt @ 103 1/4" X 1/2".

I usually tighten mine so I can twist the top "run" of belt from the PTO pulley to the tensioner about 1/4 to 1/2 way around.

Thanks, Terry, I'll get that ordered Monday. Meantime I'll have to "make do" with the green one!

TT,

Thanks again. Got the belt and it goes on tomorrow. Then I get to go looking for hippo tracks!

I hope it's the right one, Greg. :thumbs:

I had to do some serious "digging" to come up with that number -- out of a potential 8 or 9 different belts!

Don't forget to mount that mirror -- you don't want any surprises! :thumbs:
