Belts for 314-8

[scott76 0]

Hey All - have been a viewer of the forum for a while, but running into my first need to post a question.  I have a Wheel Horse 314-8, Model 73402 and Ser. # 6900191.   

 

My dad bought this thing new and I've inherited it.   Replaced the drive belt last year and the PTO belt just broke yesterday.  The deck belt (42" (I think) side discharge) also looks rough. 

 

I want to replace both the PTO and Deck belts, but cannot find numbers for the belts anywhere.    Can someone help me out??

 

Thanks!

engine to trans belt is # 7473. Presuming you have a 42 or 48 side disch deck, the deck PTO belt should be 102742 or new # is 94-2501. Spend the few extra bux and get OEM belts...you'll be glad you did.

I always have had better luck ( but don't think it is luck just better belts) with OEM wheelhorse belts

Thanks for the info.  I found the PTO belt on-line and will order that.  I still need to find the number for the belt right on the deck (the one on the spindles).  Any ideas?

I am in a similar situation, need to buy a deck belt for a 314-8, that used to be my dads.  Not sure what size the deck is though, and the serial number is not legible.  i measured the from the end of one blade on one side to the blade on the other side and it read 40.25 inches?  Any idea what belt to get?

For deck size, measure to OUTSIDE width of the gauge wheels.  Yours seems like a 42" deck, but can't be sure from the 40.25 measure you did.  If it is a 42" deck, presuming it to be a side discharge, then the deck belt should be # 6738 at 86" long.  Between 25 and 30 bux on line new.
I have a good used one for much less.  for details, clik my direct email link here:
