Two stage snow blower pulleys

Recommended Posts

Horsing tuff

I just recently purchased this two stage snow blower for my 520h. I am not familiar with this blower because it's my first one. I took the side cover off to inspect the belts. I noticed that these 2 pulleys are riding on each other. Is this the way they are supposed to be?. If anyone could give advise that would be great. Also shouldn't the one pulley move for belt tension?

This pulley provides the tension and should move away from the other pulley when the belt is installed over the PTO

They do that until it's installed on tractor with belt on PTO drive, in such that you use a wrench on that lower idler pulley to pull it towards tractor to relax the tension on the the spring to hook up the belt then it retensions after getting it hooked up,Jeff.

Thanks everyone. After I posted question and picture I figured it out. It just pulled hard but I have everything hooked up and running fine.  This is a new to me attachment so I'm learning.

I did a mild restoration on my 1991 520H. It's a decent old girl but I am finding a lot of little gremlins in this machine. It has wiring issues that is driving me knuts!!. It has no spark now. It has no power to the + side of the coil. So I ran a direct power wire to it and it runs fine. But I'm using the choke to kill the engine. So I'm lost. It also keeps blowing the 30amp fuse. So every time I need to use it I'm unsure if it will start or not. It's frustrating, but it is running for now.

anyone have any advise? I love this tractor and have a lot of time and $ in it, but can't really rely on it that much. It has 1,800 hours on it.

Check the seat switch connector(blowing fuse=electical short). The terminals are longer(stick out of the connector) than the connector. :handgestures-thumbupright:

      Hey all,
       
      This pully blew up on me yesterday. Having a hard time IDing the part # or replacements. the 308-8 schematics I've found don't list this part.  Its the pully in the front that runs from the motor to the mowing deck. 
       
      Thanks in advance!

      I need a little part number help.   I'm looking for the part number of the idler pulley that tensions the drive belt on my 857.  The diagram shows the left side of the tractor.  And I can't seem to locate the pulley on the parts drawing.  The bearings have gone out on my tractor's idler.

      I really need a 6594 pulley if anyone would sell one. I really really need one. I exploded mine pressing the bearings out. I’m so sad and feel stupid. If I can’t find one my all original 877 is basically useless to me. My grandpa bought this thing new in 67 and we have used ever since. I love this thing and want to be able to pass it down to my son. Please help!
