Belt problem 42" RD Mower (78350)

Recommended Posts

I am trying to replace the mower deck belt on my 42" RD mower (model #78350).  According to the manuals, I need to use belt 106125. I have one from Toro, however it appears to be too small. I can't find any documentation nor videos showing how to replace the belt.  I removed the spring and slid the middle pulley as far as it would go and I still couldn't get the belt on.  What am I missing?

here is a pic of a 42" side discharge deck....belt routing is the same.  Are you sure you have the center spindle top pulley on correctly.  The Small dia of this double-pulley has to be on the bottom.

The 106125 belt should be correct and is 1/2" x 89.03" long.

Thank you Dave!!  I bought the mower used from my father in law.  He still has a wheel horse so he has his own mower deck of the same model.  When I look at the pics I took of his deck for routing, I can clearly see that my pulley is upside down.  Once again thank you for the tip!
