    @maine home Hi fellow Mainer! What size is the mowing deck? Pictures of your setup should definitely help us figure out what’s wrong. There could be many things that could cause the belt to jump. The smaller 37’ inch deck use one belt from the PTO to the deck. The bigger ones like the 42” inch ones use two. One from the PTO to the front most middle pulley on the deck, and one just on the deck to run the mowing blades. The belt from the PTO to the deck is on the mule drive. If it’s jumping, something could be wrong with the pulleys. If it’s the mule drive it might not be tight enough, or something is off there. There’s a few possibilities.

    New C-81 purchase came with 22x7.50’s, would have been 23x8.50’s when new. Amazing how much height diff there is!

    IIRC the adjuster on the back of the deck is to level it. The belt jumping, is that in the mule drive? Check that the pulleys were put on in the right order. I had one that was mixed up before I got it. I also had a rear discharge that I put on so that the blades were turning backwards. I finally put an arrow with magic marker on the deck to clarify which way to put the belt on

    Thank you Wheel Horse Collectors Club

    It's you folks that come and bring your Wheel Horses that make the Annual Wheel Horse Show a success. The America 250 theme worked out well with all the American flags and decorations and proved that America is still united. The Wheel Horse Collectors Club has given me a permanent position on the board as I have been on the board of Directors since the beginning. And I just say Thank You all for coming every weekend after Fathers Day! Wild Bill

    Welcome. Any pictures? They are very helpful when diagnosing issues like this.
  11. I had also considered that. Took me five minutes to get the deck on, including straightening the mounting forks. Took me another 20 to figure out that goofy belt setup.
  12. I'm big on eye protection. I'd wouldn't be able to run trains anymore if I lost an eye. I had a coworker who had a deer head fall off the wall and puncture his eye. There's actually a video on YouTube about it.

    What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?

    Most of those side drive decks have seen a lot of use. The spindles in that one seemed really good. May have some value to someone rebuilding one. You may want to convert to a front mule drive if you look for a better deck.
  15. @Ed Kennell I Gotcha now, it wasn’t me. I do not have a vertical shaft tractor.
  16. Yesterday
  17. Yes it was. I didn't get the guys name, but I think he said he lived in Gardners, Pa. He took my phone number and was going to call me after he got home and looked at his tractor to confirm the fit.

    We don't use the mowing deck here but others will be along soon. @MainelyWheelhorse @Blue Chips @midpack Another Mainer here.
  20. The license plates were already there when I got it. Ed even joked it's the only WH licensed to drive on the turn pike. I'm on the fence about trying to repair that deck. The area around the spindles seems pretty solid, there is a lot of metal that needs replaced everywhere else. It may be better to just look for a different deck. He much prefers working with his hands over doing computer things. He plays video games, and watches TV, and spends most of the evening most nights talking/texting his girlfriend, but he only has so much patience for a screen, or for sitting still, in a day. @lynnmor As for eye protection, we are well supplied with safety glasses, and use them when needed. Most of this job was done with hand tools, because we were working with carriage bolts, and impact guns strip the holes on carriage bolts. In regards to the picture that I'm sure prompted that comment, he wasn't running the gun, just looking under to line up on the bolt that he couldn't break loose by hand. The deck shell was plenty of protection in this case.
