Kribbie 1 #1 Posted May 7, 2016 Hello I am new here. I live in a small town in North western Pa. (also known as north central pa) I have had this mower now for quite some time but know literally nothing about it. I need to replace the belts on the deck and from clutch to the deck.. I have one of the infamous 800 Special s, model number 1 0150, has a three blade 36inch mowing deck. Can someone on here tell me the length that they are supposed to be. We no longer have a dealer anywhere around here to check with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,040 #2 Posted May 7, 2016 Welcome to the forum. Just a guess on the deck model you have. The belt dimensions have been added to these pages and you can download the manual. Rear discharge Side discharge Garry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,040 #4 Posted May 7, 2016 The belts listed on the above links should be correct even though your deck may be older or newer. The spindle assemblies may be slightly different on the other decks with a different model number. The 1-0150 is the tractor model number. The -6 on the end is not used but if you subtract 5 from that 6th digit you get the model year. 6-5=1=1971. You will see 6, 7, 8 and 9 on the attachments at the time also representing 1971, 1972, 1973 and 1974.
