bo dawg 478 #1 Posted September 17, 2014 So on a 48" deck the deck belt shows PN 1594 refering to the manual charts here in the group. So what is the correct size/lenght of belt? the old belt I can barely see but looks like L105. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GlenPettit 1,714 #2 Posted September 17, 2014 From the 2001 Wheel Horse "Drive & Mower Belt Usage Charts": Belt #1594 is 107.21" in length, 1/2" wide and 5/16" thick. The Wheel Horse belts have the exact side bevel/angle and should last a lot longer. Glen 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bo dawg 478 #4 Posted September 18, 2014 I picked up a 107" 1/2" vbelt today at the TSC store, but it is a little bit longer than the old one. It has an A105 marked on it with 107" length. I guess the A105 marking on the old belt means its really 105" length. I freakin hate dealing with belts any more its hardly never what the manuals say it is.

I have to agree, many times the manual recommends a belt that actually seems to be 1-2" too long when on the tractor in use, or it could be the Belt-Factory actually made it a little too long for the idler to take up the slack ? ? ? Much more common with non-Wheel Horse belts, but it seems to happen sometimes with Wheel Horse belts too, for me. Wished I could always remembered to loosen the front mule a few turns to reduce tension on the belt in storage. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
