Mower Belt Maintenance
Inspecting the Belts
Service Interval:
Every 25 hours—Check the belts for
wear/cracks.
Check the belts for cracks, frayed edges, burn marks, or
any other damage. Replace damaged belts.
Replacing the Mower Belt
Squealing when the belt is rotating, blades slipping when
cutting grass, frayed belt edges, burn marks, and cracks
are signs of a worn mower belt. Replace the mower belt
if any of these conditions are evident.
1. Park the machine on a level surface and disengage
the blade control switch.
2. Move the motion control levers outward to the
park position, stop the engine, remove the key, and
wait for all moving parts to stop before leaving the
operating position.
3. Set the height-of-cut at the lowest cutting position
[1-1/2 inch (38 mm)].
4. Using a spring removal tool, (Toro part no. 92-5771),
remove the idler spring from the deck hook to
remove tension on the idler pulley and roll the belt
off of the pulleys (Figure 59 and Figure 60).
